Description:

[ CCode ( type_id = "gdk_pixbuf_animation_get_type ()" ) ]
public class PixbufAnimation : Object

An opaque object representing an animation.

Note:

Use a different image loading library for animatable assets

The GdkPixBuf library provides a simple mechanism to load and represent animations. An animation is conceptually a series of frames to be displayed over time.

The animation may not be represented as a series of frames internally; for example, it may be stored as a sprite and instructions for moving the sprite around a background.

To display an animation you don't need to understand its representation, however; you just ask `GdkPixbuf` what should be displayed at a given point in time.
