C# How to stop animated gif from continually looping

Question

I have an event that gets called when my app uses the internet. The event changes an animated gif composed of 7 frames. How do I make it only loop through the frames only once?

        private void trafficSendingActive(object sender, trafficEventArgs e)
        {
            txImage.Image = Properties.Resources.blip;
        }

Answer 1

You can extract single frame from that GIF image (non - animated) when the progress event is done,

txImage.Image = Image.FormFile("non-animated-frame-from-gif.jpg");

You can use this website to extract frame from gif : http://gif-explode.com/

Answer 2

You could always encapsulate the image/gif inside a Picturebox, and when you want the gif to stop, just set the Enabled property of the Picturebox to false.

Just a thought.
