Syntax

If you want to know more about the syntax of the gganimate package, consult this cheat sheet, which contains detailed information about various parameters and what they mean.


Gifski

If you're having trouble saving your gif (or if its saving to a "tmp" folder), make sure that the "gifski" package is installed and loaded.

install.packages('gifski')
library(gifski)

If that still doesn't work, try adding renderer=gifski_renderer() to your animate function:

animate(animation, renderer=gifski_renderer())
