Hey 👋
I don't know if this is a UX issue or docs are not complete yet. how can I increase or decrease the speed of the output gif file? I've change this settings but my output speed remains the same!
for example if I recorded a gif in 3 sec, I wanted an output file with just a 1-second duration.

Hi, you need to select the frames that you want to manipulate, click on any of those three delay options and click apply later.

In this case, I think that the "Scale" should do the job. Apply the manipulation, check on the Statistics tab to see if the animation has 1 second or not.

Thank you for the reply but this solution is not working for me. I did the following:

recorded a 10-sec gif and then selected all frames and reduced the "Scale" to 1 then exported it.
the output file is exactly the same. I've looked at the statics tab the duration is different though.
take a look at this screenshots:

statics before the change:

then selected all frames and changed the scale:

static tab after the change:

as you can see the duration changed but the output file is not changed. and the output file size in both scenarios the same (17.6KB).

I'm using version 2.25 windows 10 pro version 2004

Try reducing the framerate.
The frames are hitting the minimum delay (i'ts written in the green text below the scale value).
I need to increase the brightness of that text in dark mode.

The brightness of the info texts was increased.
Your issue can be solved by using the "Reduce frame rate" feature in order to cut down frames from the recording.

For me Selecting all the frames then scaling the delay duration % to 1 works.

I have this bug repro. Version 2.37.1.0
Setting delay works OK for playback, but when I save the gif itself, it's speed isn't changed.
