The animated gif is shown while the stack is going through a search process that can last a few seconds. I think I'm using a pretty standard method to give it time to animate, which is to issue a wait statement at regular intervals. Without the wait, it never animates.
That's sort of odd. I'm using an animated gif as a custom "busy" indicator in a similar way, it's shown while a longer activity is happening. I just imported it and set it to loop, then set its visible to false. When I want an indicator I set it to visible, when the activity is finished I hide it again. I don't need to manage the framerate or anything else. It just works.
