# beamer animation does not work [closed]

The animate code will compile but will not run. Have tried with the newest Acrobat Reader and version XI.

The example here is taking from texAmple.tex: http://www.texample.net/tikz/examples/sine-and-cosine-functions-animation/

\documentclass[10pt]{beamer}

\usepackage{tikz}
\hypersetup{pdfpagemode=FullScreen}
\usepackage{ifthen}
\usepackage{animate}
%
\usetheme{Warsaw}
\usecolortheme{whale}
%
%
%
\newcounter{angle}
\setcounter{angle}{0}
%
\begin{document}
%
%
%
\begin{frame}[fragile]{Sine and Cosine functions}
\begin{center}
\begin{animateinline}[loop, poster = first, controls]{30}
%
\whiledo{\theangle<359}{
%
\begin{tikzpicture}
% Axis
\draw[thick,->,blue] (-3,0)--(3,0) node[below] {$x$}; % x axis
\draw[thick,->,blue] (0,-3)--(0,3) node[left] {$y$}; % y axis
\draw[red,thick] (0,0) circle (2.5cm);
\node[red,below] at (2.6,0) {1};
\node[red,above] at (0.1,-2.5) {1};
%
\draw[ultra thick,cyan] (0,0) -- (0,0 |- \theangle:2.5cm); % UpOn x axis
\draw[ultra thick,orange] (0,0) -- (\theangle:2.5cm |- 0,0); % UpOn y axis
%
\draw[densely dotted,orange] (\theangle:2.5cm) -- (\theangle:2.5cm |- 0,0); % vertical line
\draw[densely dotted,cyan] (\theangle:2.5cm) -- (0,0 |- \theangle:2.5cm); % horizontal line
\draw[ultra thick,red,->,rotate=\theangle] (0,0) -- (2.5,0);
\node[red,orange,right] at (0,-3.5)
{\footnotesize$\cos(\theangle^{\mathrm{o}}) = \pgfmathcos{\theangle}\pgfmathresult$};
\node[red,cyan,right] at (0,-3.1)
{\footnotesize$\sin(\theangle^{\mathrm{o}}) = \pgfmathsin{\theangle}\pgfmathresult$};
\end{tikzpicture}
%
\stepcounter{angle}
\ifthenelse{\theangle<359}{
\newframe
}{
\end{animateinline}
}
}
\end{center}
\end{frame}

\end{document}¨


It is seen that the code compiles, however it not possible to run the animation.

Hope that someone can help?

• Remove the spanish option, or load \usetikzlibrary{babel}. – Ulrike Fischer Oct 16 '17 at 8:36
• Is your file encoded in ansinew? For most editors utf8 is the default. You don't need graphicx or color with beamer, as beamer already provides this functionality. – user36296 Oct 16 '17 at 8:53
• Works for me. (compiled with pdflatex) – AlexG Oct 17 '17 at 7:26
• BTW, the \whiledo approach for generating parameterized frames is obsolete, \multiframe should be used instead. – AlexG Oct 17 '17 at 12:52
• How are you compiling? Which engine? Which version? – user36296 Oct 20 '17 at 15:15
