On Thu, 22 Mar 2007, Alexander Grahn submitted an update to the animate package. Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/animate Summary description: creating PDF animations from graphics files and inline graphics License type: lppl Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- There was a conflict between the `animate' environment and a command of the same name provided by the Beamer document class. Thanks to William Slough who discovered and reported this issue to me. Therefore, I decided to rename the environment `animate' into `animateinline' in the hope that this name has not yet been used by another package or class. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://dante.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/animate .
