Edit an animated webp file?

[G A]

I am not particularly interested right now in creating animated webp files, but I am interested in editing several webp files I have. Is there a way to edit these files or somehow create a version of the animated webp file that can then be edited? When doing searches, I find nothing about editing files, only about creating files.

You can use software that is able to read and save animated WebP files, such as:

- Gimp

- Adobe Photoshop with WebPShop plug-in

You can also use a tool to decode each frame from an animated WebP as a separate PNG image, such as:

- anim_dump (available through precompiled binaries)

And then reconstruct all these PNG images (you can have fewer or more than originally) into an animated WebP file with another tool, such as:

- img2webp (available through precompiled binaries)
