I have just tried Peek and it's quite simple to use:

Yes I saw those too but didn't spend any time trying to resolve them as they 
don't detract too much from the information being imparted I think.

Hi Tim, 

Nathan also recommended me LICEcap. It is easy to use and works well.
The only drawback is that sometimes it creates white artefacts when you
move the mouse (see f.e.
http://changelog.qgis.org/media/images/entries/4ac86473163c0b1e322343de1e4013262c2492ce.gif
or
http://changelog.qgis.org/media/images/entries/f8297ba9ee600c3d41114db96f56b00bb278ba4e.gif)
- not a big issue. Only minor annoyance. 

Thanks - btw - for the "Click to play" buttons. It is much better now!

Hi Tim, 

Can you please share what a recommended screen-recording tool would be
that can record a session to an animated gif? Or would I first create
another format and then convert to animated gif? 

So far, I did only static screenshots and overlayed them in Inkscape, so
I am new to this ... 

Thanks, 

Andreas

[Qgis-developer] Animated gif support now in changelog

2016-06-13 Thread Tim Sutton
Hi All

Just a note for those helping to add entries to the visual changelog 
(http://changelog.qgis.org/en/qgis/version/2.16.0/): we now support uploading 
animated gif’s. See Matthias’s entry “New configuration options for attribute 
table” - I have added a small example there. It would be great if you could use 
your favourite gif tool to make little animations of new features. If you need 
any help getting logged in / entry creation permissions, please pop me a note.

Thanks

Tim
