Animation

Note: You need Ultra Fractal 

Animation Edition

 to work with animations.

Any 

fractal

 in Ultra Fractal can easily be turned into an animation. You can animate all parameters of 

the fractal at will and see the result immediately in the fractal window. Finally, 

render

 the animation to 

watch it as a movie clip. 

Creating and editing animations is done with various tools:

G     

The animation bar contains the time slider and vital animation controls that enable you to 

create, edit, and play back animations. See 

Animation bar

.

G     

With the time slider, you set the current frame. The fractal window always displays the image 

for the current frame.

G     

The red animation indicators are shown if the fractal is currently in 

Animate mode

. In 

Animate mode, changes that you make to the fractal are only applied to the current frame. If 

Animate mode is off (the default), your changes are applied to the entire range of frames.

G     

The key icons show at which frames and for which parameters keys have been recorded. See 

Animation keys

.

G     

The Timeline tool window provides an in depth view of all animated settings and parameters 

and can be used to edit and tweak your animations. See 

Timeline
