Merging 1 Image To All Frames(gif) - BitchesseShaileh - 11-19-2018

…As I’m not able to find information in the Gimp User Manual, nor on-line for that matter… What I’m trying to learn would be a means of merging a single layer to each and every visible layer in a GIF, with minimal time… I’m wanting to add a single layer (text on an alfa-channel layer) to each and every visible layer of a GIF… All I find is “merging layers”, and as I wish to preform this numerous times WITH OUT NEEDING TO EXPORT LAYERS, AND THEN OPENING AND ADDING LAYER TO EACH AND EVERY SINGLE FRAME OF THE SPLIT-UP/SEPERATED FRAMES OF THE GIF…
Should you have an means of doing this task, please advise… if I need to acquire a plug-in for this, do inform…  Thank you for your time...

If you're using windows OS and GIMP 2.10.8,answers are available in this thread:

Since you are trying to jus add Text to all frames in the GIF,I would suggest to use interleave layers plugin which has the option of "Title mode".The link to download the plugin for adding "interleave layers" function to "Image" menu in GIMP  is available in above thread.

   ...Thank you, for being both quick and informative with your thread/response. Kinda figured this would need a "plug-in". Thanks again...
