Hola. Tengo problñemas para importar archivos de audio mp3 en la biblioteca de animate.
Hello.Being an Animate user since around 1998, or Flash user I always loved using it to draw and make logos and graphics inside. The way you draw with vectors is just unique and made me always prefer Animate (Flash) over Illustrator. Still to this day I use it once in a while when I feel like being creative.However.. I know that the application has moved more into the animation path, and that's really cool,because that fixes issues that used to be in the past like making clear exports for video.But some features need to come back / be better.* Export as a vector so we can use graphics outside animate, let's say in Photoshop or indesign.* Copy paste as a vector into the other adobe apps would make life so much more simple. I know I can copy paste as low res graphics, but that is not useful. Right now the only way (i can find) to get graphics out is to use the export (Legacy) function.While this is ok, I'm worried about it having the "legacy" attached to it, cause Adobe once told me
I was working on a project in animate, I had two separate layers one that had an imported video and one that was my line art. I went back today to open the file and for some reason, adobe merged both layers and deleted all frames but one. I check the recovery file and it is in the same state. Does anyone know why this happened or how to fix it?
I am having a problem with my text alignment and I can't figure out a way to correct this. Unfortunately, I'm using a mac with CS3 and a Windows computer with CS4, so it could either be an OS difference, a version difference, or a software bug which I can't figure out.Update: I downloaded a trial CS4 and the problem persists. This seems to be a mac issue. For some reason, the text on my Mac with CS3 are not in the vertical center of the text fields. This causes a problem with my "align vertical centers" alignments, meaning I've had to do the alignment by hand to get it to look right. When I moved my file to my laptop to keep working on my project at home, I noticed that the text alignment was correct on my laptop, causing all of the text placement throughout my document to be off. This means that I can only work on the one computer and can't bring the project home to work through the weekends. I have made an image showing the difference of how the text is aligned on the two ve
I've noticed that texts in projects made on a Windows machine have a different line spacing or vertical positioning when I open the same FLA on a Mac. I always use OTF fonts so that should make no difference whether I'm using Mac or Windows? When I've made a FLA on a Windows machine and open it on a Mac later mostly all texts are shifted up and the text lines are much closer together. I then have to make the line spacing bigger and move the texts down a bit. This button for example has text that is vertically centered when created in Windows, but when I open that same project on a Mac the texts is positioned higher.This is no problem with Photoshop or Illustrator. Only Animate doesn't seem to handle OTF fonts from Windows to Mac and vice versa. Why is this??

I am creating a responsive project in which I have to animate an object along a custom curve along a custom curve. I have not been able to size the custom curve properly for various screeen layouts. Please help.
Hello Everyone,I need your help, its been a week since I experience this problem on my project.- I am having a problem with my adobe animate, I already setup a dropbox for backup and restore purposes and setup a file history on windows for me to restore previous version of my project if ever I experience a file corrupting when saving my project. However, even the old version is corrupted when I try to restore it.So heres the scenario:1. When the project file is on animation problem is not occuring.2. When the project file is on Clean up, problem occured. When I am saving the file, it can be save but when I reopen it error occured "Could not load scene into memory. Your document may be damaged."- The rig/character is still there but most of the character parts is missing... like head is there but body, hands, etc is missing.3. When I try to copy the layer to new flash file for me to retrieve my work. I can't paste it. Nothings happening.4. I try to fix it by using winrar tweak, but no l
Hi, I'm trying to work on my film, and last night I closed the file with no issues whatsoever, and when I came back this morning it's riddled with glitches. The symbols for the character rig are shrinking, but only when parented. I tried separating them and they no longer shrunk. Also, when I scrub through the timeline on one rig, the canvas becomes skewed and deformed. I also got black bars on screen when scrubbing, but I was able to get rid of them by copying and pasting my frames into a new symbol (tedious, but it worked). I've had so many issues with Animate and my film in general I feel like it's cursed. If anyone has a solution to the shrinking parenting issue please let me know. I've attached some examples of the glitches.
The problem has been going on since yesterday. It deletes any files that I have saved and used recently. When I first open adobe it will display the file in open recents list and then it will say "File does not exist and will be removed from list.". I cannot find my old files on my finder (I use MacBook Pro). I have even made a new file yesterday that got deleted this morning. I hope there's an easy solution other than "save often" as that's what I do.
I'm using a mask layer on top of a symbol layer with a blur effect.How it's supposed to look like: How it looks:

Hi. I know this issue had been posted to the community before, but anyone know why the paint bucket tool is locked? My screenshot won't show exactly what my bucket tool shows, but on this screenshot it doesn't even show that its even activated. I tried pressing that image with the lock on it in my tool bars, yet it's not allowing me access.
Hello! I was experimenting here with different sounds inside the same .mp3 file. Everything was working fine on the timeline and the sound was exactly as i wanted, but when i create the .swf file (or try to export to a .mp3 or .mp4), the sound got all messed up, like if the sound envelope start was very different from the one i planned. I was able to make it sound right if i changed the soundSync to "stream" (the issue happened with the "event" sync option), but i wanted every sound on "event" mode because i need them to overlap. Does anybody have any solution (different from creating several layers for each sound)? Thanks in advance!
I would like to create a looping animation that has dots moving along a rectangular path with rounded corners. I have seen a tutorial showing how to do this with an open path that has 90 degree angles. The continuous path was drawn with the Pen tool and then made into a dash line. The line was converted to a symbol that was given a number of frames (10). A Shape Tween was applied. A keyframe was created at the end frame. Then the starting point of the keyframed line was shifted by a distance equal to the length of the dash plus the space. It works pretty well. But when I tried to do it with a rounded corner rectangle or a series of horizontal and vertical straight lines joined by rounded corners the animation only affetec the first line. It's as if they were a series of disconnected separate lines. I don't know how to make a single continuous path. There is no "Join" function in Animate as in Illustrator. I any case I would appreciate suggestions on
I have a drawing with dash lines inside symbols that appear solid in exported MP4 movies. Objects with dash lines that aren't in symbols are ok. WTF?
How to achieve. Creates tween based on the frame contents, motion tween for instances and shape tween for shape objects.

New MacBook that I have been working on for just a few days. Bouncing back and forth between Work From Home to in office twice a week was already disconcerting, with different size & resolution secondary monitors. Today I opened an Animate HTML5 Canvas project that is 1280x315, and not only is it snapping very quickly to what looks like a smaller size, the 200x200px scrolling panel I added via z-index is the real size and extends below the 1280x315px Animate Canvas document. Just a few days ago on a 27" Dell monitor everything was in sync regarding dimensions. Browser is Chrome. Monitor is an LG Ultra 27MU88
Hello. I have this code where I download 54 (short) sound files. I also have a button that, while downloading, you can go back (in case the user has made the wrong file)when I start downloading a group of files and hit the back button and then re-download the same group of files, the load is considerably faster!! (I do not know why!)Is there a way to optimize this download so that it goes fast also the first time I hit it?Thank you very much! function load_soundsF():void{ i = current_index; this[soundZ[i]] = new Sound(); this[soundZ[i]].load (new URLRequest(this[Data.so.data.sound+i])); pantallaCarga.progressNumber.text=i + " / 54"; pantallaCarga.carga_text.text = "Cargando "+ Data.so.data["sound"].split("_").join(" ")+"...."; this[soundZ[i]].addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, onError); this[soundZ[i]].addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, imagenCargada); function onError(event:IOErrorEvent):void { trace("ioErrorHandler"); dispatchEvent(errorA); } function imagenC
I'm creating HTML5 ads for Google Ads. I created a new set of ads from copied Adobe Animate files that worked fine themselves when zipped and uploaded to Google Ads. The old ads were published using Adobe Animate 2019. These new ads that do not work were published using Adobe Animate 2020. These duplicated versions are exactly the same, except for some text changes. I publish them, zip them, and upload to Google, and get the following error: Make sure the filenames of all files in your .ZIP file are exactly the same as the name listed in the reference file. For example, if one of the files in your .ZIP file is called path/to/example/asset, but in your HTML file you reference path/to/example/asset2, AdWords will not be able to to find the correct file. To fix the issue, compare the filename listed above with every file in your HTML5 code. If it is not exactly the same, correct the reference. More details: INVALID_URL_REFERENCE: canvas_ Using search/rep
Hey thereI want to create an HTML5 File and align an image independently from the other elements in Animate CC 2018. I mean, for example, to align the middle top point of an image always to the right side and 20% from top of the whole canvas. I know how to set the whole canvas responsive but here I would like to influence only the image.I don't want the other element to be aligned or resized and I know that it has been possible in Adobe Edge Animate 2014 to set an anchorpoint of an image and that anchorpoint to the canvas but I can't find the settings in Animate CC 2018.Thank you in advance
I am trying to get a funtion to run from within an addEventListener to animate a circle moving across the screen. The speed of the circle would need to be passed as parameters inside the function. No matter how I change this code, I am unable to get this to work.//Setting up inital speed of the molecules var speedX = 8; var speedY = 10; //Setting up initial position of the molecules within a certain bound this.mol.x = Math.random()*(500-250+1)+250; this.mol.y = Math.random()*(350-50+1)+50; //animate this.addEventListener("tick",function.bind(this){moveMol(this.speedX,this.speedY);}) //definition of function that animates function moveMol(spX,spY) { this.mol.x+=spX; this.mol.y+=spY; if(this.mol.x>500 || this.mol.x<250) { spX*=-1 } if(this.mol.y>350 || this.mol.y<50) { spY*=-1 } }
Bonjour à tous ! Je sollicite votre aide car, malgré mes nombreuses recherches, je ne trouve pas de solution. Je débute mon activité en freelance Animateur 2D / Motion Designer, voila pourquoi je ne connais pas encore les rouages du métier... j'apprends sur le tas quoi. J'ai réalisé une animation motion design sous Animate assez complexe (éléments animés en "tradi", interpolation classique /de forme, masque animé, etc...). Bref, j'ai exploité tout ce que ce formidable soft a à nous offrir. Mon client ayant beaucoup apprécié mon taf, souhaiterait l'intégrer à son site web... A l'ouverture du site: BOOM l'animation se lance.Apparemment, l'idéal pour mon client serait un SVG animé car très facile à intégrer sur un site et peu gourmand en ressource (le site intergrera de la 3D, j'imagine qu'il ne souhaite pas alourdir plus qu'il ne l'est)... Après des heures de recherche, j'ai essayé de passer par les scripts disponibles: SVG Animation et Lottie... Ca bug à fond pour l
Hi everyone,I have an assignment for school on Adobe Animate,and I'm having difficulties with publishing and testing my movie- whenever I try to do so, I either get the message "file not found" in the browser (chrome) or the file is stuck on the first frame and won't respond/ looks distorted and won't respond.Secondly, I'm also having trouble with my interactive button, when in browser it responds to my clicks but the js code behind it won't run- and I've checked my symbol and instance names multiple times.Thanks for your help 🙂
