Animate

Hi 🙂I am editing a series of Animate pages for upload to Moodle.  They are exported as html/js files.  I am wondering if I should use a 1920 x 1080 or the default 1024 x 768 resolution for upload to Moodle (or any other browser based platform).  They don't contain videos.  They mostly contain simple short animations.Thank you and have a great day!Kevin

How to create a new movie clip using HTML5 code.And add movie clips to the Stage.I also need to name movie clips.

I tried to export, but every time I do, I just get an error of "Cannot export to (name).mov", and even if im using a preset that exports to MP4 (ect.) I get the same error, and if I export to a file that exists, it just creates a file with no data.

Hi there!I'm trying to animate a character imported (I've tried importing it as a .psd, .png, .ai file) but the character will only import on a singular layer. That means I'm unable to animate specific elements of it, and can only make the character move across screen. In this case, the character is a cyclist, and so while I can make it move along a path, I can't move his legs or the wheels to create a realistic animation. The selection tool will also not let me select any parts of the character.Is it related to the type of file I'm importing or am I missing something? Thanks!

Hey! this is my first post, and i have a massive issue! I was working away at an animation, when it froze completely.

There was no trace of me being on that day, and after watching multiple tutorilas of hoe to get it back, There was nothing. The worst part is that earlier that day, The app did crash, and there was a recovery file of my work! Please help me get it back!

Hello, I've noticed that the Shape>Optimize function in adobe Animate is extremely agressive. With a value of 1 it completely changes the drawings.  Is this a bug?  Is there a plug in or something that could help me preserve the nodes a bit more?In my experience Illustrator's optimize function is much more usable.  I'm working on content that goes into realtime engines and performance is a concern.  But I dont have a solution that is scalable for all the assets I'm drawing in Animate.Attached a before and after with a strenght of 1

I began usingAnimate yesterday and I went around my toolbar. While messing around, I accidently hid my tools.Can anyone tell me how to unhide it.

Hi All, I finally upgraded from Flash to Animate CC and one of my most favorite keys is missing--> the shortcut to Modify-Shape-Smooth. Can I create a keyboard shortcut for this? I used to be able to assign this to my Wacom which saved me tons of time. Any suggestions would GREATLY be appreciated. Thanks!

Hey there,Just wanted to know if anyone else has used Animate 2020 on macOS High Sierra (10.13.6) and noticed it's really slow when Converting to Symbol or Pasting Frames. I hit Enter on the Convert to Symbol dialog or release the mouse after dragging a frame and then have to wait 15 SECONDS while the coloured wheel spins for it to do something that used to be instantaneous.Normally I use Animate 2019 because I really prefer the compactness of the interface, but I like the Fluid Brush in 2020. And I would update to the latest version of Animate but I would need to upgrade to macOS Mojave and I'm worried some of my other software would be affected.Does anyone know if there's a way to fix this lagging in Animate 2020 or is this one of those bugs that was only corrected in a later version?Thanks for your help!

I was animating on adobe animate(An) but suddenly my An just crashed and then closed then I opened it up again and gave me the option to recover my work which I agreed to however when it loaded up only one of the two files I was using was recovered. then I tried looking for my autosaves to find the other one but I couldn't find one autosave for the work I did for 3hr .which is confusing because I set my autosave to every 10 mins. I don't know if I'm looking in the wrong place but how can I recover this work, as I believe it shouldn't be lost.  

Hi there,  Is there a way to link a composition to different AE files, so that when I update the composition - it will automatically update in the AE files? Thanks in advance!Rob

Is there a way to disable ALL the line hinting in a single file? I have lots of symbols that need to be changed. Please let me know if you have any ideas! Thanks!

Hey there, whenever I copy & paste a vector graphic from Illustrator to Ae that includes blurred edges or an inside glow, these parts are pixelated in a verly low resolution. Is there a way to get a better resolution when I paste it? It seems like the only way is to scale it up in Illustrator before. Any hints for me? Thanks, BlueLemming

I completed a Canvas project recently to which I added: createjs.Touch.enable(stage);This worked perfectly for adding touch interactivity on tablets and phones, but I just discovered that it doesn't work on a touch-enabled laptop. Why not? And of course, how can I ensure it does?

Hi,I have just a basic question. Is it a good idea to still creating (like desktop app) in ActionScript (AS3) ?As Flash is no longer working ?What do you think ?Many thanks

Hi guys for the life of me I cannot export my animations with a transparent background.They always have black as a background 😞I am despertaly needing to achieve this so i can place my animations on real video background footage.  I select "Export Video/Media" My settings when Exporting from Adobe Animate show as,Ignore Stage Color (generate Alpha Channel) Checked.Span - Entire MovieFormat is H.264 Preset Default (AME)Start Adobe Media Encoder Render Que immediately. I did read a help article on the subject matter but they stated to change the "Export Settings" in Media Encoder but mine is grayed out and i cannot change any export settings in Media encoder. I wish their was a video tutorial on how to achieve this.  I am using a Mac with Final cut pro to do all my video editing. Thanks to anyone that may be able to chime in on this frustrating issue. Cheers       

can't believe I cant find anything in animate to show a simple List  like thisand thisright? what am I missing?

I'm on Windows 10.. I literally just exported a few videos the other day... now all of sudden the videos won't export. It says "Exporting SWF video" but it never reaches the queue in media encoder.If I try to drag and drop the file from my documents to the media encoder it says "this file is not supported"I have no idea what is going on, it was working fine just days ago. Thank you

Which program and how can I make a 5 minute anime on these programs?

Hi, so I used the camera once many years ago and dont remember this problem. But now I have had to use the camera once again and noticed the Over state in a button doesnt show when published. I did Google this and looked here in the forum but couldnt find similar thread (apologies if I missed it).My take is that this is because when using the camera that Advanced Layers needs to be on to work (but when I used the camera years ago there was no Advanced Layers)? And this makes all layers behave like objects?  Is there a way around this so I can show the Over state of a button in Advanced Layers mode or does the button need created as a movieclip, then use 'mouseover' code to show the button over state? Thanks Greg
