@WillKoh,
there's no way to know how many frames are there in a loaded image, unless you keep track of it manually, as Andy_A has spotted.
You could even use a type structure (or an array, if you will load always a fixed number of images), and keep track of image informations in the structure itself.
So, for example, you can use a type like:
;when you load an animated image, you can create a new type instance, and store the related info in the fields:
;later, you could use this method to retrieve the frames of a loaded image:
Hope this has sense for you,
Sergio.

So, for example, you can use a type like:
type t_info field img ;will contain the image pointer field frames ;the info you will use later end type Global info_img.t_info ;the type pointer
;when you load an animated image, you can create a new type instance, and store the related info in the fields:
global myimage = loadanimimage("myimg.jpg",64,64,0,10) create_info(myimage,10) ;================================= function create_info(img,frames) ;================================= info.t_info = new t_info info\img = img ;the pointer to the image info\frames = frames end function
;later, you could use this method to retrieve the frames of a loaded image:
frames = info_frames(myimage) ;================================= function info_frames(img) ;================================= for info.t_info = each t_info if info\img = img then return info\frames endif next return 0 end function
Hope this has sense for you,
Sergio.
