Hi,

I've looked up the following documentation: http://doc.sagemath.org/html/en/reference/plotting/sage/plot/animate.html and tried to use the first example after installing ImageMagick.

However when I run the script, I get nothing, and when I look in the terminal I only see "Invalid Parameter - Background Image".

I tried reinstalling ImageMagick and this time tick all the boxes, not just the default ones, and when I run the command again I again a longer message "convert.exe: unable to open image (...)", similar to what was signaled here:

https://ask.sagemath.org/question/41082/problem-imagemagick-and-animate/

I'm running SageMath8.2 on Windows 10. How can I fix this ? If the problem is that SageMath cannot find the correct paths to ImageMagick, how can I fix that ?

Thank you very much, Turiel.

PS: I also get this message in the Notebook when I tried to run the command for the first time, it disappears when I run it again:

/opt/sagemath-8.2/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/sage/repl/rich_output/display_manager.py:590: RichReprWarning: Exception in _rich_repr_ while displaying object: Error: Cannot generate GIF animation. Verify that convert (ImageMagick) or ffmpeg is installed, and that the objects passed to the animate command can be saved in PNG image format.
