Hi,

I have created some animations using Mathematica 5.2 and the Animate command with text added using Epilog->Text[]and was wondering if anyone could help with either of these two questions:

Firstly is there a way of displaying certain frames of a animation for longer so that when i want to display text and a still picture in an animation people have time to read it. Currently i am getting mathematica to draw the same picture over and over again which takes a long time. Is there a better way?

Also sometimes the image i want to display takes up the entire box around the image which means that there is no room for the explanetory text. Is there a way of controlling the bounding box to leave room or some other way around this?

Thanks
John
