Why does the iterator in foreach not work?
2
I've split an animated GIF into the frames and saved them as a PNG sequence. I use the beamer class and want to load the images from the sequence, replacing each other without an autostart animation.
begin{frame}frametitle{FooBar}
foreach x in {0,...,5} {
includegraphics<x+1>[width=0.95textwidth]{dbgp-setup2-x.png}
}
end{frame}
The compiler output says that
Latexmk: Missing input file: 'dbgp-setup2-.png' from line
The filename should be dbgp-setup2-0.png, dbgp-setup2-1.png etc.. Why does x not work?

Welcome! Tryforeach x [count=y] in {0,...,5} { includegraphics<y>[width=0.95textwidth]{dbgp-setup2-x.png} }The parser does not know that it should compute the argument of<....>, so you have to do that.

The parser does not parse x+1, so you need to do this yourself. In this case x+1 coincides with the count, so we can use this. (Of course I do not have your images so I renamed some standard images.)
documentclass{beamer}
usepackage{pgffor}
begin{document}
begin{frame}frametitle{FooBar}
foreach x [count=y] in {0,...,3} {
includegraphics<y>[width=0.95textwidth]{dbgp-setup2-x}
}
