ugBASIC User Manual

This small example will show how to load sequence from a single image. The basic syntax is to give a “frame size” of each frame inside the original image. In this way, every frame will be taken to generate a set of IMAGES datatype. Note that SEQUENCE can be used as IMAGES as well, and it means to use the first frame.

 
     BITMAP ENABLE (16)
     CLS
 
     sequence := LOAD SEQUENCE("sequence.png" ) FRAME SIZE (16,16)
 
     PUT IMAGE sequence SEQUENCE 1 FRAME 0 AT 0,0
