It is so difficult to find a software that will do everything that you need.
This new EA is close but still need help with .GIF files.
@[deleted], I have found the same problem but I found a work around until EA is fixed.
I also use a software called "Easy Gif Animator"
This software is also very good but lacking features that EA has.
Here is the work around:
Make your project in EA then save the video as an .AIV file.
Next open the .AIV file with Easy Gif Animator.
Then save as a .GIF file.
This has worked for me but I hope they fix EA.
