Animate

Hi.What to do code - smudge brush tool in painting in Adobe Animate html5 canvas?Thank you for your help.

A couple of problems with this code:1: "stagemousemove" doesn't work after preventDefault is called2: I have to tap an Android device fairly hard to trigger the "stagemousedown"function preventDefault(e) { e.preventDefault(); } function disableScroll() { window.addEventListener('touchmove', preventDefault, false); } stage.addEventListener("stagemousedown", down.bind(this)); function down(e){ disableScroll(); } stage.addEventListener("stagemousemove", move.bind(this)); function move(e){ console.log(e.stageX / stage.scaleX); // not working after disableScroll function called }Anyone have any idea how to fix this?

Hey, has anyone else having their copy of animate start lagging after the last windows update? I've checked the drivers for my graphics cards and don't see any background processes running except my youtube video's i listen to in the background. 

I'm returning to programming more digital multimedia with experience with Flash & Director [I am old].  Is there a way to trigger actions using Cue Points within Adobe Animate specifically using the HTML5 Canvas?  If not is there another solution for triggering actions upon crossing over cues in he audio?  Really liked how I could either use embedded or actionscript placed cues to trigger animations or sinking data into codes after passing over a cue point. Thanks community.

Hi. I am making a class of a movieclip (not the main class) and I want to use other MovieClip. (FondoGris) for a listener. What can I call it? I can't do this by calling the symbol class with an instance or using the instance name as it is not the main class.Thank you my code package { import flash.display.MovieClip; import flash.events.MouseEvent; import FondoGris; public class PestanaEmergenteVolumen extends MovieClip { public function PestanaEmergenteVolumen() { var objectClose:FondoGris = new FondoGris (); addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,playVolume); objectClose.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, retryVolume); function playVolume (e:MouseEvent): void{ if (currentLabel == "uno"){ play(); //panelURL_mc.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,playURL); } else{ stop();} } function retryVolume (e:MouseEvent): void{ if (currentLabel == "diez"){ play(); //panelURL_mc.addEventListener(MouseEve

I've  been asked to animate a 13 minute podcast in the form of the Ricky Gervais Show animations. I'm not sure how much to charge for this. Would anybody know of a good rate?

Why are my frames freezing up? My html codes snippets created by Animate do not work. Randomly Animate has decided to freeze on frame 5. I have 11 frames with movie clip animation sequences inside and cannot get past frame 5. If I redo the buttons, after many tries, it finally works and then Animate will decide to freeze on a different frame. I have converted all artwork except for the buttons to bitmaps, all actions have different instance names and I am not using advanced layers. The buttons I am using are .ai files. This is very simple "go to frame and stop, click to hide, click to play" animation. Please help - I have a deadline and must create 5 more segments. This is taking 4 times as long to do a simple animation with Animate html canvas. If this doesn't work on the next try, I will have to learn Unity quickly. Please send advice and tell me to either quit Animate and learn Unity or tell me what the problem is? Thanks in advance, cmdh Here is an example of my code on frame

Hi, I activate View > Show Shape Hints. Then I edit the shape or change the keyframe and the shape marks are no longer displayed and I have to activate them again and again. Why are they always hidden again? Best regardsRené  

Hi, We have softwares which are developed from Adobe Flash. Those are in the form of projector files i.e, .exe files which are internally using swf files. These projector (.exe) files are running fine in our machine.We all know that broswer flash plugin is ended so, the question is whether it is legal complaince to use these projector files in our machine which are working fine?   

Hey, I'm working on a large project and need to convert old SWF files that renders images from .mov files to HTML 5. I tried to do this using Adobe animate but could not find any solution, all I got was an error telling med that the file format is unsupported. Is there a workaround this issue?

Eh bien, vous serez peut-être étonné de ma question mais c'est seulement maintenant que j'ai remarqué ce logo A (pour Animate) d'Adobe et je voudrai bien savoir de quoi il s'agit. D'après le sens du mot je crois comprendre qu'il s'agirait d'un logiciel d'animation mais il se peut que je peux me tromper complètement, non ?

Hello I'm a total beginner to Animate and so it's possible that im just doing a beginner's fault as I'm used to work with Illstrator and Photoshop. However, I am totally helpless in finding out, what I'm doing wrong, so I would be super grateful, if someone can help me out. I want to simply draw an old man's face with the fluid brush in black ink (picture 1) according to a drawing I previously made in Illustrator. The problem is: When I finish the man's face (picture 2), it suddenly gets filled completely in black (picture 3). If I try to undo it, all the strokes get deleted (picture 4) and so my whole work is basically lost. I've tried to set the brush filling to transparent, but it automatically changes back to black colour. If you have any idea how to fix this issue, I would be very very grateful for everything that helps. Thanks! Kind regardaAlina 

I've looked up the answer all over, but its clear that the answers are outdated. flv won't show any errors when imported, yet after I click finish nothing happens. I'm using a local drive, yet it won't open. I go to file -> import -> import video...  Then I select browse then next, then I select skin under all,then next, and then I select finish, it collects the meta data and once that window closes, nothing changes. What I find strange, is the fact that the file explorer calls this an Animate Video File, which makes me wonder why it is that animate requires a more complicated process than importing the video of a file type animate used before.

I was an avid user of Fireworks years ago and now it doesn't exist. Will any Adobe programs play the animations I created - or use the files from fireworks? 

Hi.Since all masks in animate are discarted and recreated upon publishing, the anchor point is suposed to be in the center of an mask. But when i try to offset the center by adding or decreasing half of its height/width, the mask still does not scale from top. It still moves a bit as if the anchor point is still somwhere near center. How do we change that? Changing Regx amd regy does some random things to position. 

this is my code for Actionscript: //for creating a hexagon on click stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, addHex);function addHex(e:MouseEvent):void {var newHex: hex1 = new hex1var size:int = Math.round(Math.random()*50+10);this.addChildAt(newHex, 1);newHex.x= mouseX;newHex.y= mouseY;newHex.width= size;newHex.height= size;} How could I convert this to HTML5?THANK YOU IN ADVANCE

Now that Flash Player and Adobe Air are beind depricated by Adobe.  What is the strategy for using action script for scripting Adobe animate?  Should we be using javascript for all scripting at this point? What are scripting optoins and runtine environments for deployment?Scott

I want to show two adobe animate html5 exports on the same page. Is this possible without using iFrames?

Hi. Surely a rookie question, but how do you import Illustrator files into Animate and edit them? I have tried a few different import options and the files always seem to be locked and unable to manipulate or edit in any way when brought into Animate .Thanks in advance

I have Macromedia Flash MX 2004 installed on my computer but it won't run. I double click on it and it wont open no matter how many times I do it. Are there any workarounds around this? I'd like to know.   [moderator: edited title for accuracy]

Hey, so was in the process of making my next toon, when i realized the sound file i'd imported doesn't play as move frames on the timeline. It'll play if  I press play from the start of the timeline, but once stop it or try to move the position back or forth it just starts ignoring me all together. This has to be some kind of setting i've accidentally changed, but I can't seem to find what i've done? Anyone else have this problem?

Hello, I am trying to animate a character that I drew on photoshop, so I have layers of different mouth drawings (for lip sync), and eyes (for blinking). I am new to adobe animate and I have no idea what I'm doing ;_; I have looked up so many tutorials but couldn't find the right one.  Where should I start from? and how do I put different layers as the frame changes? right now the mouth and eyes are in each group, mouth (smile mouth, mouth shut, mouth open half...) . If these all makes sense to you please help me😭
