I haven't reset them per se, but have tried using Animate on a system which will have the default preferences with similar results. The only difference is it offers a debugging option designed for software developers.

Windows just pales Animate after choosing to close it and doesn't get anywhere. Using effectively a fresh install does not resolve the crashes. Mostly they happen when choosing to test the current scene which seems to have about a 1 in 10 chance of actually working.

Adobe Animate is the most unstable piece of software I have had the pleasure of using and I was wondering if when it crashes, it is possible to force-close it (without having access to Task Manager) rather than have it hang indefinitely?

ClayUUID wrote I think the key takeaway here should be don't use lines as fills. Probably. Couldn't get the fill bucket to work though. Ugh, Animate is a pain to use.

Ah, that Shape menu has a Convert Lines to Fills option which partially works for being able to then scale the character. Might do that if necessary.

I did only use the paint brush for drawing. I guess I'll resort to zooming in with the camera since it doesn't matter that much.

Probably the latter. All layers to do with each character are grouped into a folder, and so if I select the character, I do so by selecting the folder. Changing scale doesn't make any difference, except "none" which results in slightly thinner lines when scaled.

Tried changing that setting with the whole character selected but it didn't make any difference. Will try again tomorrow - maybe I was doing something wrong.

I don't know what I'm doing, but I need to create an animation for college. So far I've designed some characters but have hit a bit of an issue which is that I drew them too small and can't upscale them without it all going horribly wrong. I've searched around a bit and Illustrator's "scale strokes and effects" seems to be what I want, but there is no such option in Animate and attempting to copy the layers into Illustrator results in a bitmap. I've attached an image of one of my characters as its original scale, then an enlargened version and then a copy which has been converted to a symbol before being scaled. As you can see, neither of those options work too well. And yes, there are better ways of doing things than colouring things in the old-fashioned way, but I couldn't get anything else to work. Any ideas on how to scale line thickness with the rest of the content as well then? Seems like a weird limitation. 😕
