{{LuaApi|group=AnimatedImage}}
Changes the texture an AnimatedImage takes its frames from.

<pre>
AnimatedImageSetTexture(imageName, textureName)
</pre>

== Arguments ==
;imageName : <code>string</code> – Name of an AnimatedImage window.
;textureName : <code>string</code> – Name of the texture, as used in the <code>texture</code> attribute of an <code>AnimatedImage</code> element in XML.

== Returns ==
Nothing.

== Details ==
* The client loads the texture by name and rebuilds the image with it. A name that matches no texture raises no error.
* The ''not a ...'' error message says "DynamicImage", although the window must be an AnimatedImage.

== Errors ==
* <code>Error in function call 'AnimatedImageSetTexture': Window %s does not exist</code>
* <code>Error in function call 'AnimatedImageSetTexture': Window %s is not a DynamicImage</code>

== Example ==
From the <code>AnimatedImage</code> frame class in <code>easystem_windowutils/source/animatedimage.lua</code>:
<pre>
function AnimatedImage:SetAnimationTexture (textureName)
AnimatedImageSetTexture (self:GetName (), textureName)
end
</pre>
