Hi.   One of the problems is that the local variable stage is shadowing the global variable stage (which is created in the published output) and receiving two different values in sequence. Also there's a tick event that is not being used and it's not needed if the goal is to only move the car by click.   That being said, here is a suggestion: var car = new createjs.Shape(); car.setBounds(0, 0, 50, 50); car.size = car.getBounds(); car.graphics.beginFill("green").drawRect(0, 0, car.size.width, car.size.height); car.speed = 5; car.x = lib.properties.width / 2; car.y = lib.properties.height - car.size.height; stage.addChild(car); this.stop(); // methods that change the display list may require the current timeline to be stopped stage.on("stagemousedown", function() { car.x += car.speed; });   Note that I set bounds to the shape because CreateJS doesn't provide a way of calculating a shape's bound automatically, added a speed property to the car itself for a more objected oriented approach and left the stage's framerate to be set directly in the IDE of Animate. I hope it helps. Regards, JC ... View more

Hi.   You can set its placeholder property as this TextInput component is a regular HTML input text under the hood. Just keep in mind that components are not immediately ready when the code in the first frame of the main timeline runs. So one of the approaches is to listen for the stage's drawend event. Like this: function main() { var inputTF = document.getElementById("yourInstanceName"); inputTF.placeholder = "Something..."; } stage.on("drawend", main, this, true); Regards, JC ... View more

Hi.   Components don't live in the canvas and are not CreateJS objects, so you'll need to use one of the DOM methods to access it first. Like this: this.stop(); this.submitbtn.addEventListener("click", function (event) { var val = document.getElementById("answerbox").value; if (val.toLowerCase().trim() === "correctanswer") { this.gotoAndPlay(72); } else { this.gotoAndPlay(13); } }.bind(this)); Regards, JC ...

Hi. This is how I would approach it: - Create a perfect round blob with spikes using the Polygon tool; - Wrap this raw vector shape in a Graphic symbol container; - Animate this newly created Graphic symbol rotating in a perfect loop; - Wrap this whole timeline animation in another Graphic symbol; - Squeeze this second container by reducing the scale on the Y axis; - Add the same amount of frames used for the rotation animation to the timeline containing the second symbol; - Play it.   Here is a sample: https://bit.ly/477I28b   Just please note that I used perfect triangles but you can draw them rounded/smooth as required.   My idead here is just to demonstrate the principle.   Regards, JC ...
