Convert frame and timeline animations (Photoshop Extended)
A frame animation created in either Photoshop or Photoshop Extended can be converted to a timeline animation so
you can use keyframes and other timeline features to animate the layer properties. It’s also possible to convert
timeline animations to a frame animation. However, keep in mind that video layers will not play in frame animations,
and some keyframed layer properties might be lost in the conversion.
❖ In the Animation palette, do any of the following:
• From the Animation palette menu, choose either Convert To Frame Animation or Convert To Timeline.
• Click the Convert To Timeline Animation icon .
• Click the Convert To Frame Animation icon .
Open a multilayer animation
You can open animations that were saved in older versions of Photoshop as multilayer Photoshop (PSD) files. The
layers are placed in the Animation palette in their stacking order, with the bottom layer becoming the first frame.
1 Choose File > Open, and select the Photoshop file to open.
