Explanation

The IKGifFileLoad function loads raster image data from a GIF file. When loading multi-page image files, the Page parameter determines which page will be loaded. If the image is a single page image file then the Page parameter is disabled. Supports 1, 4, and 8 bit color. The number of pages in the Gif file can be retrieved by the IKFileType function.

If the user function is set or if the Caption, Message, and Button parameters are blank then the Progress dialog box is not displayed. If the Progress dialog box is displayed, it indicates the percentage of the current process completed. For more information about the user function please refer to the Definition of User Function in the Ik10File.dll, Ik10FileA.dll, Ik10File64.dll, Ik10File64A.dll section.
