This script
Attachment:
located at "<Image>/Filters/Animation/Sliding kaleidoscope"
is a .scm file, that when run on an image will create a sliding horizontal kaleidoscope animation, as seen in the example shown in the following post
To create an image to use the script on
1. Choose or create your initial image, the pixel width MUST be a multiple of 6, in the example below 138 wide x 200 height (height doesn’t matter)

2. Copy and paste this initial image 3 times into a second image that is 3 times the width, as seen below
Attachment:
138x200x3.tif [ 242.92 KiB | Viewed 4418 times ]
3. Run the script on this second image, it takes a couple of minutes on the example above
4. Save as a .gif file or play in the Filters > Animation > Playback
Notes:
The number of layers created is equal to (the pixel width of the image divided by 3) - 1, so bigger images take much longer for the script to run with file byte size increasing massively
The script should really do step 2 for the user and should create the gif as a new image, sorry it doesn’t, my bad
If it crashes other than the image size not being a multiple of 6 I’d be grateful to know
