Objective-C

C++/CLI

Python

public int Index { get; set; }

@property (nonatomic, assign) NSInteger index;

public: 
property int Index { 
   int get(); 
   void set (    int ); 
}

Index # get and set (RasterImageAnimator)

Property Value

An integer value that indicates the index of the current frame during animation playback.

Remarks

You can use the Index property to skip frames during a playback if required.

Example

This example uses Index to skip frames during a playback
