Animate

Hey all, I am slightly new to Animate, what I am trying to do is copy a previously made asset (to make sure they are the same size and composition etc.) However the new (copied) asset keeps giving its new colour to the original asset even though they are called different things. I have tired copying the asset into a new document, and then moving it back to make it a 'new' asset. However so far I have had no luck. I am trying to change the colour of an asset at a particulat keyframe in the animation. So if there is a different way to do that please let me know Thank you very much.

Hey, so I'm trying to figure out animate and ran into some trouble with probably very obvious answers. First, I'm trying to animate on twos, so I start drawing on my first keyframe, move over two, and draw on the next one. But when I watch the playback, all the frames show up one after the other without disappearing, so that at the end of the animation all of the keyframes are visible. Second, I'm trying to use onion skin mode, but it doesn't seem to be working on previous frames, only on future ones? All the frames beforehand are still visible. Even after playing around with the advanced settings and specifying a 2 frame range, changing up the colors or opacity, I can't get it to work. Can anyone help me out?

macOS 15.2Animate 22.0.5I have very intricate shapes and layers that need my masking. Using some layers result in the spinning beach ball for several minutes. When I export to an SVG to use in any resolution in Photoshop, there is no preserved masking. How do I keep it? Thank you.

I'm trying to create an array of jokes with the question (setup) and punchline (answer). This is something i could easily do in ActionScript, but I'm clueless where to start in Adobe Animate, Javascript etc.  For example:  I can create an array easily enough: var Jokes = ["How does the sea greet the pirate?"];var Jokes2 = ["It Waves!"];But how do I combine the two into one array as if it were on object?Title: PirateSetup: How does the sea greet the pirate?Punchline: It Waves!Would I create an array called Pirate and make the punchline and setup elements? Var Pirate = ["How does the sea greet the pirate?","It Waves"];Then create a joke array to hold the Pirate array?var Jokes = [Pirate];I've tried the above but can't retrieve the elements.  

Hey has anyone got a solution for why I cannot draw in Animate, I'm using a mac and since the new update I haven't been able to draw anything in Animate does anyone know how to resolve this?

I have noticed an unusual problem with Firefox showing a layer in an imported Illustrator artwork as detached from the layers in front of it, that is, the Illustrator layers, which are all on the same Animate layer.  Only happens in Firefox, but not on all machines.   In Chrome, no problems: This is what it looks like in Firefox:  In Animate that eye graphic is on the one Animate layer.  The graphic is comprised of multiple layered graphics, all imported as a single layer object from Illustrator. If I pull that graphic apart in Animate, the round iris that appears to pop to the top in Firefox, doesn't look like that.  Rather the iris is shaped at the top, not round.  Any ideas?

I have about 300 frames of animation that i need distribute to each keyframe. as in each premade frame goes to each keyframe in animate cc. i imported them to the library and selected all, then went to modify>timeline>distribute to keyframes but it was disabled (unclickable.) did i do everything correctly because i searched older forums about flash cc (old version of animate) and everything seemed to be working for other people. please i need help, im still new to the program.

Good Morning!. I am making an app in animate for android. I put a movieclip with this code so that it appears at the bottom in the center (the mc pruebaPie has the position at the bottom right,you can see it on the screenshot screenshot 😞 pruebaPie.x = stage.stageWidth;pruebaPie.y = stage.stageHeight; in debugging it works perfectly, but in the apk file the movieclip doesn't come out!!! I appreciate the help very much. Thanks!

when pressing play on the side i can't hear playback I don't know what is causing this so if someone could help that be great. Also when playing the animation it does not play audio. 

I am using createjs.Bitmap to add an SVG to the stage. The project is using a responsive layout.. The problem is the SVG does not scale relative to the stage and other elements around it. var patientImagePath = data['patient_image_path'] patientImage = new createjs.Bitmap(patientImagePath); patientImage.x = 96; patientImage.y = 36.05; patientImage.scaleX = 0.16; patientImage.scaleY = 0.16; root.patientDetailsModal.addChild(patientImage);'Normal' view on large monitor:  and after reducing the browser size using dragging (not using zoom...).  Any solutions?

hallo, , is there anyone who has trouble with SHAPE HINT? I have been trying for two days but it doesn't work, I followed tutorials and even your suggestions, but nothing ... the suggestions in the second frame remain red and don't work. I followed all the suggestions, I work only with shape tweens, with ungrouped shapes, everything that is said in the guide and in the community, is there any bug in the updated version 2 days ago? thanks

Hello everyone! Not sure if this is the right place to submit a bug report, but I hope you will redirect me to the right place if it's not to be posted here. I'm using a Wacom Intuos 4 graphic tablet and am running Adobe Animate on a Windows PC. I have double click bound to one of the pen keys. When I use this key to rename a layer and accidentally slip to another layer while the button is still pressed, Animate crashes without a warning. Tried to do this again and it crashed on me every time. If anyone needs more information to fix this, I'd be happy to help.   Animate crashes on me on a regular basis, so I'm kind of used to press CRTL-S every few minutes by now. Adressing this one particular bug might prevent some frustration and lost work though. For the time being, I rebound my pen button. Wish you all a wonderful weekend.

The menu dialog boxes open too large for my screen and I can't confirm any of my choices. The OK and cancel buttons are below the screen.How do I resize them???I've tried dragging to shrink and resetting some preferences, but nothing has worked. -Annie

Hey, i dont know if anyone has use ToonBoom Harmony but in it you can change all the colour in the project to a different one all at the same time. I was wondering if theres any plugins for animate that can do this or if theres already a way to do this within animate Thanks

When I try to animate this scuba diver by making his limbs motion tweens, his foot moves... only for the first frame without any editing done. The only way to fix this is to delete and re-animate the foot... Any help on how to prevent this because it keeps happening to me? Thank you!

I have a combobox which is dynamically populated via JQuery AJAX with JSON. How do I clear the values of that combobox to refesh it for new values?  

Hey, so one of the bugs (if it is a bug and i'm not doing something wrong) is that half the time i try to flip and objects(s) they jump half way across the screen. Some of this I can attribute to having some mark or dot I didn't notice that was way off center, but I also notice that some cleaned up symbols are doing the same thing and only on the first flip. Here is a video, can anyone explain this to me? (on a related topic i noticed that when i locked my characters arm layers as to only flip the torso, one of the arms stuck on and refused to let go of the torso. I have both arms parented to the torso and both arms locked so why does only 1 stick? Here's the vid.  

When I try to do simple tasks in Animate (draw a text box, draw a shape, etc...) nothing shows up on the screen.  The only time I can see things I've added to a layer is if I go to exit the page without saving and they briefly flash on the blank workspace before the whole page closes.  What am I doing wrong?  Is there a view / setting I need to adjust??

Hi Team,There was an error in my adobe animate CC . I cannot reset any workspace its always show artboard

I have populated a combobox with JSON via Query AJAX. I now want to prepend a selected option, like 'Select an option...'. How should I do this? $.ajax({ url: "scripts/get_patients.php", dataType: 'json' }).then(function (data) { assignDataF(data); }) function assignDataF(data) { for (var i = 0; i < data.length; i++) { $('#patients_cbx').append($("<option/>").attr("value", i).text(data[i].label)); } }

Hi there, I'm trying to publish a panorama VR project. Unfortunately, even after following a tutorial, the outcome is still blank white. I found another forum post here that suggested checking for errors in the browser, and it seems there are three however, I have no idea what they mean or how to fix them. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
