I'm new to Animate and I've got this code and this error that keeps repeating. Scene 1, Layer 'Actions', Frame 1, Line 78, Column 20 1084: Syntax error: expecting rightparen before colon. This is the code I havefunction timing(evt:TimerEvent):void { timeStep += 1; //increment counter if (run) //only if run = true is shift key has been pressed { moveCharacter(evt:KeyboardEvent) { timeStep = 0; //reset the counter } } else if (timeStep == 2) { moveCharacter(evt:KeyboardEvent) { timeStep = 0; //reset the counter } } }

Hello,I try to make a GPS device interactive for a learning module. The problem is when I put an action to a button that he has to go to a frame the first time is no problem. He has to show what is on the display and a new button. This button is the same as before but needs a new different action ( show another button and display) but he is not going to the next button and display. he just stops.Can anybody help me.This is the code I use:var _this = this;/*Clicking on the specified symbol instance executes a function.*/_this.knop_menu_01.on('click', function(){/*Moves the playhead to the specified frame number in the timeline and stops the movie.Can be used on the main timeline or on movie clip timelines.*/_this.gotoAndStop(28);}); 

Hi. I’m using Adobe Animate on Apple Silicon M1 Mac, Under Rosetta translation environment.Sometimes I get an “Animate is processing stroke” message and Animate is not responding.I never experienced this problem on Intel Mac. How can I fix this problem?

I don't understand why, or even how that went past anyone's radar, but sometimes, when I try to change the color of a simple something, it doesn't, just like doesn't, the color picker immediately goes back to the first color and nothing changes at all.More specifically, it happens right after I paste a stroke or fill, it doesn't change color unless I unselect it and reselect it and then try to change it.It's not very bothersome but then I came accross something very annoying: It also happens for texts, except that the very only workaround I found was to either swap stroke/fill colors or to reset strokes and fills to white and black (interestingly, the descriptions of those buttons are swapped), but otherwise, it doesn't want to change color, no matter what.Has someone ever met such an issue before, and if you did, how did you fix that?

On the website https://www.perceptionsystem.com/blog/convert-flash-website-html-site/  is written, “Adobe Animate CC.Adobe Acrobat CC is an excellent conversion tool for HTML5 projects from flash, in which you have .fla files. As the leading platform of Adobe Flash, the device works best for converting such projects to HTML5.” Please let me know the web link to the visual tutorial of this conversion and   what files I should upload to the hosting server to view the converted file on the Internet.

Can anyone tell me if it is possible to sun debug scaled down? I have a 4k project and can't fit all of the preview on screen to test buttons... Thanks 

So i'm trying to produce a simple classic tween like i've done a million times before and now adobe animate seems to no longer be able to do that because the symbol i'm moving turns into a drawing object as soon as I create a new keyframe.      Here's a video of it happening.   Also, is there any other program out there that i can transfer my animatecc info to to finish this project? i've struggled for the past 3 months without making progress on my project due to all the bugs stoppng me. I'd love to continue to pay for and use adobe animate as it's served me well up until the last few months, but now I cant get a single thing done. I'm serously pulling my hair out, all i want is to be able to finish the stupid video!

Hello - I viewed a video that was animated.  The video is a split screen - one side animated, the other not. On one side of the screen there is an animated characterdoing things like pointing and pushing a large triangular graph.  On the other side is a man pointing and pushing a ladder (triangular graph in the cartoon).  Will this program produce this type of video?  One commenter on the video said he "mapped the motions, before animating."  Thank you - Robin

Hello!I am trying to create an HTML Canvas animation that has a large block of text that is scrollable via draggable scrollbars. I remember this being really easy to do in the past in Flash, but cannot find how to make it work in Animate with HTML5. Seems like a simple of enough ask, but I am not finding any info on how to do or a source file where I can replicate the scrolling text. Can someone point me in the right direction and/or share an example fla where I can see how to do this. I did come across one explanation that said to use the text/scrollable menu option, but for whatever reason "scrollable" is always grayed out for me...both in static and dynamic text. Thanks for any and all help with this!Grace

I like to use the stroke effects (tapering, etc) in my animations. But with this most recent version of Animate, these stroke effects disappear whenever I quit the program and sign back in. Does anybody have this issue and know how to fix it?Thanks,Julie

Hi, how do I change the color tint of a symbol/shape in a HTML5 Canvas document (with code)? *Alternatively how do I change the fill-color inside a symbol/shape (with code)? **My case is that I have to import a svg/ai-file into a movie-clip and that svg/ai-file consists of 20-100 elements. I've made each element mid-grey, so it's possible to tint them easily. I manually have to create a button of each element (since they have to be clickable) and I also have to give each one a unique instance name. That procedure is far from ideal but it still goes pretty quick. For the record, yes I have to get the elements from an svg/ai-file and they are all different in terms of shape and placing. I will also have to repeat this process every time I get a new project (new project means a new svg/ai-file).I'm going to put the instance names of these 20-100 elements in an array and read in data from a csv/xls-file. Depending on which value each element is given from the csv/xls-file I want them to be

Hi Ya'll, Im a total noob and really struggling to get this to work. I've managed to get individual images to show/hide using some of the examples I've found in this in this forum, but can't seem to workout how to translate that into muliple objects. My scenario is this....  I have 4 buttons (btn_Button1, btn_Button2, btn_Button3 and btn_Button4), I want them to show a  corresponding image (mc_Image1, mc_Image2, mc_Image3 and mc_Image4). btn_Button1 shows mc_Image1 and so on. The image covers most of the stage when showing, so I’d like to be able to hide it again by clicking the image. Additionally, I’d like another image (mc_Overlay) to show when ALL buttons are pressed (this image will appear behind mc_image1, mc_image2 etc) and this will also hide when you click on the image, as described above. Does that make sense? and can anyone help?? Many thanks

Hi,I'm very new to Animate and need to do a thing if its not too complicated. I have 4 shapes that I convert to symbols and call them Shape1, Shape2, Shape3 and Shape4. These 4 symbols I want to be visible all the time in the same position. When there is a click on Shape1 I want my symbol Txt1 to be shown next to Shape 1. When there is a click on another of the shapes I want the corresponding Txt2, Txt3 or Txt 4 to be shown. Only 1 of the textboxes may be visible at a time.  Is this code something I can find online somewhere and copy paste and make my own adjustments after? Or maybe there is a video that shows to go about this - I have not been able to find this.

Hello, I've got a problem with my tween animation. How can i change the direction of the rotation because it turns on the wrong side? Thanks kind regards;)  

When I press on Adobe animate, I can only see it on the side of my screen, and it wont let me drag it onto the middle of the screen. I have a wacom tablet with a screen and when I connect it Adobe animate appears on the tablet but I cant press or move it. I shut down and restarted my computer, and I also deleted the program and reinstalled twice but the problem keeps on happening. Any help would be appreciated as there are no tutroials for this problem. from the picture below you can see adobe animate in the corner of my screen, and that is as much as I can see of the program.

Hi! I'm new to animation. and well, I'm currently making my first one using the Adobe animation app it's a very new world than what I have been working in and one problem I'm stuck on is copy and pasting the same frames. the part I'm working on, an animation meme has a repeat section and I'm stuck. Can anyone help me?

I've never seen this and note sure how it happened, worked on an animation project for several hours last night, and saved versions as I went along. despite saying the most recent file was saved last night at 12:45 and the other most recent at 11:30 neither of these files have any of my work from yesterday? I'm devastated because my freelance work is needed today and I've lost a whole day of work. Never seen this before, anyone else? Using Animate.Note: one thing in common with three most recent files is a space of 163 MB- it's like it reached this size and stopped updating after that?

Hi, Adobe Community. I am total newb to using Adobe tools and I was working on creating my own very simple-looking assets in Adobe Animate. However, whenever I export and try to use it, the layers are showing and I cannot move it around the slide. The complete opposite to downloadable assets where the layers are hidden (you can only see them when you double click) and you can move it as you please. Asset I exported:           Downloadable Asset: I'd appreciate anyone's help and support. Thanks!
