GIF Checker Tool

When using Civil View, the GIF Checker Tool finds GIF files and gives you the option to replace them with PNG files.

GIF files can often be found in Country Resource Kits. Unfortunately, GIF files are not compatible with the Arnold Renderer. The GIF Checker tool gives you a simple way to automatically replace GIF files with PNG files to ensure renderer compatibility.
