Re: Importing animated GIF
you may need to import it into an animation document - it sounds like you are importing it into a print/web document
or alternatively, the other way round...
an animation document if you want to edit the gif
a normal document if you don't, but you cannot just import it as that will still just open it in the way you describe - you need to embed it to use it in a web page for eaxmple
EDIT - if you want to embed it, read through the xara help section entitled Placeholder Tab, specifically:
Replace with graphic file
Select this option if you want to insert a graphic or image into your website in place of the placeholder object (eg. a PNG, GIF or other web compatible image file). Use the Browse button to select the file.
The chosen file is automatically copied to the support folder for the current design, so that when you export your website the file will be included in the _htm_files folder along with all the generated images for your site. See the Document Handling chapter for information about support folders
