Feature request on exporting 3D graphics into animated GIFs

It seems such feature has been changed when updating

Geogebra 5.0.70 to the latest 5.0.80

I tested the attached ggb

https://ggbm.at/1388453

and found:

The 5.0.70 version obtains higher quality frames in GIF , while in 5.0.80 the quality of GIF becomes poorer though smaller in size.

Additionally, I like the style of rotating the graphics view during exporting via version 5.0.70;

So is it possible to add the following options to the Export command in the future release:

1. quality of frames can be customized ( e.g., high, median, low quality)

2. keep the style of animating the graphics view when exporting or let it optional;

3. adding possibility of obtaining transparent background color of the GIF.

thanks :smiley_cat:

additionally, there might be a bug in the updated code from 5.0.70 to 5.0.80

I didn't test the transition versions between the two:

when I was using 5.0.70 to export the GIF on Feb 14, everything is OK for the attached GGB;

while after I upgraded to 5.0.80 and exported it again, I got a "Failure dialogue" which cannot be reproduced after I re-installed the 5.0.70, test as OK, and then updated into 5.0.80.

I don't know why, but the source code change in eporting GIFs might be one of the reasons
