Apply motion or animation in Microsoft Designer?

I created a party invite for my boy's 5th birthday party. When I go to download the image I get a suggestion 'Ask Designer to animate your designs'.
How do you do this?
All my internet searching is coming up blank or leads to PowerPoint references.
I noticed in (second image below) one video on YouTube it shows an option to save as GIF but I don't see that option when I download my image.

    I haven't found a proper answer to animate my existing static design.
    I was able to get some basic animations working by starting with one of the base 'Designer templates' (with animations) then replacing with my background image and copy pasting text elements from other base templates. Average outcome for me, interface and functionality needs work Microsoft.

    File size is big also. Shrunk the canvas size to 600px square but that didn't make much difference (still 1MB, file-name.mp4, 7 second duration). GIF output is very slow to compute/download and much bigger file size (7.1MB).

      Kerry7777,
      Cute, but you have posted to the wrong forum. This forum is dedicated to questions/issues with Microsoft Project, a project management application. I suggest you find a more appropriate forum for you issue.

        Oh, my bad. Totally unrelated then. Would you happen to know the address of the correct forum please?
        Thank you
