Animate

I thought the Animate change that makes single-frame movieclip code only execute once was bad, but this is so bad I'm half-convinced I must be hallucinating it. Okay, in an HTML5 Canvas document, say you have a movieclip with 5 frames, and on each frame there's "console.log(1);", then "console.log(2);" etc up to "5"  and a "this.stop(); "on the fifth frame. Oh and there's like a red ball or something to make it visible. Now put this movieclip on the root timeline. Say, 10 frames long. Drop an F7 blank keyframe on the last frame so when the main timeline loops the movieclip will be removed from and re-added to the display list. Finally, run it and open the browser's developer console. This is what you'll see:123454321...over and over for as long as you let it run. Every time the movieclip is re-added to the display list, something in CreateJS is apparently rewinding the movieclip to its first frame and for some insane reason executing every frame action along the way

Hi, recently i animated a character, after a while i added some patern on his shirt with mask, now for compositing, i want to merge masked layer and shirt layer to be one single layer so i can work with it in after effects. But adobe animate wont let me do it, what can i do?Thanks

Hi, i'm creating a plugin to export all MovieClips from a library to a custom format using "Custom Platfrom SDK" (CPSDK)And so, when I approached implementation of exporting "9-slice" MovieClips, I began to look for a way to get a rectangle with coordinates for it in "DOM" headers, but I did not find it. I also tried to look for some code in sample plugin, but I also did not find anything that could be related to this.I noticed that jsfl API has some similarities to headers that are provided in CPSDK and since jsfl documentation is much more convenient (for me) than CPSDK docs I started looking for ways to get what I want there.I found that "symbolItem" (aka DOM::LibraryItem::ISymbolItem in C++) has a scalingGridRect method to get "a Rectangle object that specifies the locations of the four 9-slice guides", exactly what I need.Also here I need properties like "sourceFilePath".But in CPSDK there is only a lone GetTimeLine function.So ISymbolItem has a lot of missing propertiesIs there a

Hi all,I understand this youtube tutorial "https://youtu.be/252kA6UkhMo" is from years ago. I'm tyring to implement the concept of masking to animate drawing a dotted line in animate 2023. It works in the editor but when I go back to the main scene timeline and lock the mask and the layer below it, they both disappear. Also, when I play the animation on the browser, all I get is white blank page. Please see attached youtube video, the video I recorded and the screenshot. Thank you.

That element is displayed on all layers, and there is no way to select, edit, or delete it. please help

Hey folks,Hoping someone has some insight here. This occasionally happens, but usually clears up on its own or if I close out of a project:Usually if you hide a layer, it disappears. If you show a layer, it reappears. Something weird is happening where if I show a previously hidden layer, a checkerboard icon appears in the place of the eye icon, and all the layers are somewhat transparent. Very strange. Nothing I do seems to make a difference.Ive included a screenshot. 

So before I mask the layer with the shade. This shade effect is what I want applied only to the character layer with the blending mode "multiply" on.  Basically, making the blending mode layer (blue shade) but only masked to the character.  But after masking that said blending mode multiply layer to the character. The blending mode effect disappears and doesn't work.(For additional information, the character is a symbol) I need help on applying these. As I've tried searching all other methods but to no avail.   

I'm trying to learn Adobe Animate and practice making HTML 5 ads.  Text is all animating fine. We have a little character I wanted to show waving. But when I added Asset Warp, the output became glitchy. It looks fine when I play in the timeline, but when i export it becomes stilted and glitchy. Is what I'm trying to do possible? What can I do differently?

Hi! I noticed that in 2023 version of Animate, while exporting to SVG (legacy) there is no option "Optimize for Character Animator" which saved the layers names... is it somewhere else?

It was my first time using Adobe Animate CC and I already finished my animation so I could upload it on YouTube. When exporting, there's no audio but I didn't know you have to set it to Stream from the sound settings and so I did that. I tested the animation and the audio is not syncing with animation, even though it was perfectly synced when the sound was set to Event, I feel like I didn't sync my animation properly with the audio. (Both of the animation and audio are completely normal.) I was kind of upset and confused after I also exported the mov that time, the animation was inverted (so is the watermark) and I don't really know how to fix this. All I did was to flip my art in separate keyframes horizontally, nothing happened, this final export is different from my stage play. My stage was completely normal. I was very sure I didn't mean to animate half of everything in inverted canvas. There was also another frame glitching before it even shows up as well. It took me a l

It seems to be stuck in the smallest possible setting, and i've absolutely wonked out my workspace just trying to resize the thing. What am i missing? I've included a video of what i mean

Hi there,I have checked a few posts about controlling the timeline with a slider but I am afraid they may be a bit too advanced for me.Would anyone recommend a post or a resource which explains the simplest way to have a slider that controls the timeline.Just the simplest case.Thank you in advanceB

so I know that there are people who actually managed to solve the error but for some reason a little while ago the sounds that I put in the animations didn't even make the sounds with the lowest pitch, and I already tried to use the tips that people gave to others but it didn't help much, I tried in Adobe CS6 but it had the exact same error, help me please I've been trying to find the solution for more than 2 days

when ever i try to make a pen stroke, it keeps on lagging at the beginning of said stroke and when it finally does do a curve theres this line at the beginning. And if u also hold on for more than a second, this weird loading thingy pops up and when you finlly let go these options like, "paste in center" comes up, please help!!

This issue just recently started, and I am not sure what changed, but when I try to export an MP4 file from Animate, Media Encoder gives me this error message: "Could not create the output. Please check if the output is read only or locked."Please help!

Bonjour.Question toute bête puisqu'on peut le faire avec les autres apps Adobe : comment scinder la circonférence d'un cercle (ou comment dessiner un quart de cercle). Je me sens bête mais je piétine, alors je pose la question...

Une brosse imite le panache d'un avion acrobatique et grossit tout en se diluant dans le ciel (la dilution n'a pas été appliquée pour les captures d'écran). Un segment droit ne pose pas de problème, il est transformé, agrandi et un masque permet de n'avoir que la partie "utile" (captures d'écran).  Mais l'avion effectue des courbes et des cercles. Et là, impossible bien sûr de grossir le panache sans ouvrir le rayon (ou diamètre). Sauf si vous avez une autre solution, il me semble que la seule est d'utiliser une brosse vectorielle qui permettra de grossir le motif sans toucher au rayon (ou diamètre).Animate permet-elle l'utilisation de brosses vectorielles, et quel est le suffixe du nom de brosses vectorielles utilisées? L'app Capture génère-t-elle des brosses vectorisées compatibles avec Animate?

I'm trying to export (save) the color panel with Tagged Swatches. For some mysterious reasons, it only saves the normal swatches, but not the Tagged Swatches. Obviously we are in the 21st century, and I am a bit baffled - what's the point of having Tagged Swatches, if you can't reuse them in another file?!thanks.

Is there a way to activate the RGB color picker that was previously in Flash? Similar to the one that's in Photoshop? The current one is just unusable to me.

My screen width is 800.In the onPressMove function, I first set the range of ball's movement on the X-axis between 20 and 780.I want to change the frame of car to 0 when the ball's position is { top: 1, right: 20, bottom: 1, left: 685.5 }, and change it to 1 when the ball's position is { top: 1, right: 114.5, bottom: 1, left: 590.15 }.My ball can move now, but car not change the frame when ball move to the specific region.Could anyone tell me what's wrong?car have a lot of frame inside. var root = this; var ball = root.ball; var car = root.car; function main() { createjs.Touch.enable(stage); stage.mouseMoveOutside = true; root.stop(); ball.hitFrame = 1; ball.missFrame = 0; //ball.dropArea = { top: 1, right: 20, bottom: 1, left: 20 }; ball.stopCar0 = { top: 1, right: 20, bottom: 1, left: 685.5 }; ball.stopCar1 = { top: 1, right: 114.5, bottom: 1, left: 590.15 }; ball.stopCar2 = { top: 1, right: 209.85, bottom: 1, left: 495.35 }; ball.on("mouse

I am to animate software.can I replace the adobe illustrator file in Adobe animate, where my changes in Ai file update automaticlly.

I created a project in Adobe Animate. The animation and sounds work well on the timeline. But when I test it, you can't hear any sounds until several seconds into the animation. Like the video was muted and you unmute it. Then if I publish the project and I open the HTML file, some of the sounds won't even play. What am I doing wrong???

Bonjour. Je vous joins une image, ce sera plus compréhensible.  Le quart de courbe et la droite sont des instances de symboles. Elle représentent un panache de fumée et celui-ci doit grossir et se diluer (je n'ai pas appliqué la dilution sur l'exemple) au fur et à mesure que l'animation progresse. Pour les droites, je joue sur une des deux contraintes longueur/largeur, mais pour une courbe d'un huitième, deux-huitièmes ou trois huitièmes de cercle, dont le diamètre ne varie pas (sauf si on peut faire autrement) , je ne vois pas comment procéder, à supposer que ce soit possible...
