Animate

New to animate and I'm not sure if this is a setting or not. When I am using the brush tool to draw and hit "E" to erase on my wacom screen it shows a brush line where the erase will happen and then when I lift the wacom pen the brush line THEN erases. I'd like it to just erase and show me what it's erasing as it's being erased. Is there a setting for this? Thank you.

When I drill down into a symbol that is comprised of a group, the timeline is grayed out. I can't see any of the keyframes. If I double click on the wheel image, then the timeline for the wheel displays. All the other elements are drawing objects and their timelines don't display. Can anyone help me understand why this is occuring and how I can view the keyframes for each of the drawing objects that have been grouped?

I have hope there is some video tutorial that will teach me how to do this. Thanks in Advance

I am working with an animate file made by someone much more experienced than me. How can I copy the segment tagged "talkCycle", create a new segment tagged "walk", and then adjust the positions of the layers to create a new animation segment in this format.

I am working in Adobe Animate. When I was done in Adobe Animate, I exported all my layers, individually, from Adobe Animate and imported all of my layers, individually, into Adobe Aftereffects. I want to change the color of some of the strokes in my project. How do I find the specific layers so that I can change these strokes.

This only started happening, when I load an image, it loads on the timeline but not on the canvas? I have tried re-installing the program with no success? The image below explains what I mean. The blue box on the canvas is where the Image is meant to be shown,

Here's the issue. I'm hoping someone else has experienced this and knows how to fix it:I'm using the latest version of Animate on Windows 10I create an HTML Canvas document with a dynamic text field.I click the globe icon next to the Font Family name to Add Web Fonts and select Google FontsThe interface opens, but, depending on the sort type that I choose, either a small subset of the fonts are listed or none at all.When I choose Sort by Alphabet, for instance, only the fonts starting with the letter 'A' all the way to 'Bevan' are listed. No more:Other sort types result in 0 fonts displayed. Sometimes I'll see a few fonts displayed, but usually only around 20 or so. I've had a live support session that resulted in no solution. I noticed they cleared some files (the 'gfonts' folder under the AppData folder).  There's a cache folder there that lists 236 fonts (more than what is displayed in the interface, but still way less than the full Google Fonts list). If I delete the whole gfo

After creating a perfect vector illustration in Illustrator (no background and all outlines) is placed in Animate's library (imported) and in a layer of the timeline. The illustration in Animate stage looks exactly like the one created in illustrator.After expoting the project for video (mp4 at format H.264 Default (AME)) the video file shows the vector with deffects and poor quality. Neither the illustrator file of the animate file show this, only the final output in mp4. I tried to modify all the variables for importing the illustrator and exporting the video as well, with absolute no change on the final result.Any ideas? it's very frustrtaing considring the HD requirements of the project.Size of the stage is 1280 x 720 px. See files attached for reference. Thank you.

I have been trying to add a visable image like a jpg or or other image with AS3 to an email. I am nearly done with an iOS Air SDK application but can't sove this. When the user submits a mailto, the address, cc, and body fill in with text from a form, this was easy. However getting an email to populate the body with an image has been impossible. I am desparate, please submit any help!  var OneEmailone:String ="";var vetEmail:String ="";var subEmail:String ="";var bodEmail:String ="";/*var custName:String ="";var vetName:String ="";var flowName:String ="";*/ submitProt1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,fEmailClickone);function fEmailClickone(event:MouseEvent):void {OneEmailone = customer_email.text;vetEmail = rep_email.text;subEmail = "PCV2d Results";bodEmail = vet_email.te; navigateToURL(new URLRequest("mailto:"+OneEmailone+"?cc=" +vetEmail+"&subject="+subEmail+"&body="+bodEmail ), "_blank");}

Hi guys, We use Adobe Animate very often for our advertising campaigns but there are two things I think need improving. I'm hoping either someone will have better workflow suggestions or perhaps this will reach the dev team and make it into a next update of Animate. EMBEDDING FONTS:Ever since I switched to Animate's HTML5 canvas I've always just used the Static Text option, but lately I've been seeing some benefits to using Dynamic Text. (filesize, speed, copy updates, ...) However the issue there is that you can't embed the font via the Animate UI, as far as I know. You have to manually go to Google or Adobe Fonts, look up your font, copy the embed code and the best way I found was to add the @1552174 font family code to my HTML/JS publishing template. Surely there must be a better way of doing this? You'd think Animate would be able to look up the Google or Adobe font and embed it into the HTML or JS file automatically. That would be such an improvement. IMAGE COM

Hey, so i was in the middle of some puppet rigging via the parenting tool, and while trying to make an arm move I kept getting the "current frame needs to be converted to symbol to insert tween" message. I thought I had accedentally drawn something extra into the layer but cant find anything, and when I click on the symbol it shows as a symbol in the property pannel, but when i click on the layer the symbol registers as an object. Any Idea of whats happening?

Hi,I'm having issues when using a JPG file inside a nested movie clip. Here are some context: I am working with an HTML5 canvas document. The movie clip is an instance that is being targeted with mouse-over script.

Suddenly, without anything changing, I'm getting unexpected audio related errors/warnings in a project without audio.  I recieve this warning message: The AudioContext was not allowed to start. It must be resumed (or created) after a user gesture on the page. https://goo.gl/7K7WLu. And this error: Uncaught (in promise) DOMException: Unable to decode audio data Any idea what's going on or how I can fix it? 

Hi,I'm new to animate and a while ago I attempted an animated sort of banner and saved it as a FLA file and output as a swf file too.I recently went to make edits and when I open the FLA file in animate - Scene 1 is just a white space and when I click on Edit Symbols there is a list of the different elements which also show as a white screen - but also show a white circle, a cross and a green motion line. All the objects are either text or drawn objects but non are showing. I've tried changing the background but they are still not showing. It looks like all the movements are there but just not showing the objects.Any help would be appreciated.Thank you

Hello,I have created an mc in the library for a specific purpose and I can load it dynamically. Its shape is a square. The square works fine with labels for up, down, over etc.For a new project I will need to have a shape that needs to be a randomly sized rectangle. How do I build the movie clip, with javascript, so that it has 4 frames and the labels up, over etc, in it?I believe if I could do this then I could just make it work the same as the square built in the authoring environment.I have read the createjs movie clip definitions and I can see addchild(shape) but I can't understand how to add shape1 to frame 1, shape2 to frame 2 etc.Any help would be appreciated.Ron

Hello, I am trying to figure out how to get the value of a PHP variable into an Animate HTML5 app to run an if/else statement. I have a PHP document that holds the Canvas and Javascripts to run the application. In the PHP file I define a variable before loading any of the Javascript or Canvas files:<? $watch = "Yes" ?> //Which is really a result from a DB query.In my ActionsScript within Animate I have the following code. This code is supposed to show a button if the PHP variable is equal to Yes, else hide it if not.var watch = <?php echo json_encode($watch); ?>; if (watch=="Yes"){ this.next_btn.addEventListener("click", fl_MouseClickHandler.bind(this)); function fl_MouseClickHandler(){ this.parent.parent.gotoAndPlay(2); } }else{ this.next_btn.visible = !this.next_btn.visible; }When I run it on my webserver it hangs.  So I am not sure if I have the right code here for getting the PHP variable.  Any help would greatly be appreciated.

The onstage controls for the camera tool no longer appear when I use the camera tool (it used to always appear when I made a new camera layer). I can use it is to adjust in the camera properties but that is difficult. Does anyone know how to fix this? I am running Adobe Animate version 20.5.1 on MAc OS 10.15.7 Thank you!

I get the error:SecurityError: Error #3769: Security sandbox violation: Only simple headers can be used with navigateToUrl() or sendToUrl().with the code below. I just want the users email system to open and create a new email but have a jpg image inserted inline (not attached). Something like:Hello welcome to....   image hereThanks for visiting...Maybe since "image/jpeg" doesn't work as a content, is there a workaround? The only other option is to copy the image to the clipboard and have the user paste it into the email. Other than that, I'm at a loss as what to do.I cannot go the typical route of sending the image to a server and having it send out the email. I already have that working but do to the new security laws in the UK, I need this simpler option using the users personal email.import flash.events.MouseEvent;import flash.net.URLRequest;import flash.net.navigateToURL;import com.adobe.images.JPGEncoder;var bd:BitmapData = new BitmapData( 100, 100, false, 0x222222 );va
