it is because you are pressing Alt to copy keyframes on the timeline, when you do that you are activitating the top menu bar, so when you press another letter it fires off an error sound. adobe animate is 100% garbage.

I guess because it is a dead end, it's not best practice to not use it, it's a bloated resource hog, it's not cross platform and no one in their right mind would learn it now. They ended AS2 without little warning or fanfare, they could do the same with AS3 and the world would keep turning.

Oh they are keeping it? Weird. Would be easier for everyone if they decreased the bloat and cut it loose.

When they say 'Flash' they mean Actionscript and the standalone player/plugin for browsers. This is what the vast majority of people understand Flash to be. Yes this will be discontinued and it will be replaced by a few things, mostly HTML5.

There are heaps of ways to do it, just google 'after effects pixel'. The easiest way is to apply the Mosaic effect on your animation. But if you are particularly fond of the low res Animate look, then follow Colin's directions.

This is a personal preference rather than help, but I would export normally from Animate and then replicate the look you are after in After Effects, that would give you more control and is easier to replicate across other machines/locations.

Just to check, have you tried Publishing an SVG rather than exporting an image, do you get the same error?

Rotate the line in a symbol with classic tween, inside the symbol increase the length of the line with shape tween

Soz, didn't want to appear patronising, just thought I would rule out the obvious answer as wacom problems seem to posted here pretty regularly and there don't seem to be clear answers. I know from my own experience that wacom drivers can be problematic.

It's on the far right hand side of the Tools bar, ensure you have the tap turned off

I have no idea what you are doing here, something about your drawing technique is... unique. I was able to draw your face in about 3 second using the oval tool and the line tool, no breaking apart, no object drawing and could colour it just fine

It's your workflow that is the problem, not the availability of a universal cross platform brush library - which would be essentially impossible given the completely different architecture of the four applications mentioned. There also can't really be a discussion around unifying the UI for these applications, as they are quite old with a user base resistant to frivolous change. Although it would be helpful, especially for Illustrator which is quite difficult for new users to understand as the tools and ways of working are quite anachronistic.

Not many people use Flash anymore, especially people who would be appraising a portfolio. Use a template website like squarespace.

The overlap is curious on the right hand side. Post the file if you are still having issues.

I believe the problem arises when you exactly line up the two handles for the middle point. I was able to replicate the problem creating this shape in a few different ways - when the two handles intersect the shape is redrawn with extra points. Going through the same process in Illustrator does not result in the same effect. The solution appears to ensure that the two handles are as close as possible without intersecting, not ideal I suppose.

You're better off doing something like that in Photoshop. Using a vector animation program to attempt to approximate a natural aesthetic is going to be problematic with significant trade offs in performance. You could attempt using the brush library to try and find a texture that suits the look you are after, but it is almost useless and it's very hard to get a line that looks good.

It's more likely that Animate is a shambolic mess and a hodge-podge of code that runs like a pig on even the most modern of computers. But let me know if you discover the solution.

Does this happen in other drawing programs? This used to happen frequently on older machines as there was insufficient memory and processing power to draw without lag or the cursor being stuck on.

I doubt they are using Animate to export animated gifs, because they always look terrible. More than likely they are exporting the frames and then compiling the animated gif in photoshop. Besides this having 30fps for an animated gif for the internet is like driving a BMW on a GoKart track, you can get away with 12 or even 8fps

Ok so as far as I can tell the problem is that you have duplicated the animation of the yellow ball. It has been animated once in 'Austauch.swf' and then again inside the movieclip 'Greenball' This explains why the animation looks correct within Animate but incorrect once exported. Delete all the animation within the 'Greenball' movie clip and this should fix your problem. Please let me know if you have any questions
