Re: Not all gif images "move."

Greetings,

(A) I insert gif images (with animation) to a slide (abc). If I save that
slide as .gif and insert it to another slide (xyz), I lose the animation.

When you save a slide as a picture of any format, PowerPoint saves a picture of
the slide as it looks in edit view, in the chosen format. It doesn't attempt
to save animations or to preserve any special qualities (ie, animation) of
images that happen to be on the page.

You get a still picture.

(B) If I copy slide (abc) and paste it to slide (xyz), of course I still
have the animation working.

In this case, you've made a copy of the animated GIF and put it on another
slide; the effect is the same as if you'd inserted the same GIF onto that slide
via Insert, Picture, From File. If it's animated, copies of it stay animated.

(C) I found the following from the web:

"With an animation editor, GIF images can be put together for animated
images."

I don't understand where you want to go with C.
