When drawing with my pen I get extra strokes even if I haven't lifted my pen. Here's an example showing how 4 strokes without lifting the pen actually are 10 strokes. Is it me?Thanks,Line

I understand that video components in html5 exist as div layers floating above the canvas, so I was wondering how to use a different method. I came across a post by ClayUUID​ with the code posted belowI have 2 questions about using this :1. I added the video path location of my video to this code, and put it in my first frames actions on the top layer in my html5 doc. But nothing is happening, I dont see a video. Am I using the code wrong? 2. How can I go about stopping and hiding / starting and showing the video and changing the size? var myClip = makeBitmapVideo(this, "C:/Users/Blah/Downloads/video.mp4");  myClip.video.play();  myClip.rotation = 45;  // accepts target clip to create bitmap in, file path to video  // returns reference to bitmap object, with access to video element via "video" property  function makeBitmapVideo(clip, path) {      var vid = document.createElement("video");      vid.src = path;   

Is this possible?  Basically I want to make the background of the Dynamic Text box have a color.  How do I do this using AS3?

Can any one help I'm trying to download the adobe animate free trial onto a new laptop google chrome book.  So I get to the point where it says click for a download link to be sent to email address.  I do this an email gets sent with a link, I click the link and end up back at the point where it says click to download a link to your email - ahhhhh what am I doing wrong!!!

Is there a way I can assign extra/other data params to movieclips like we can do with html a tags - https://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_global_data.aspI have.a bunch of movie clip icons where I need to assign each a group of values I can access in an onclick function. For now I just need to do a javasctip alert and show the values when an icon is clicked. For example, I'd like to add something like data-name="Thunderbird", data-level="Expert", data-link="https://mylink.com".

My pen pressure is not working in Animate on my new Samsung galaxy book flex. The pen pressure and tilt buttons aren't there  even though i am using a pen device. I know they can only be seen on specific tools such as the brush tool, and I know they don't show up if you are using a mouse. I am using the built in pen on the device and I can't find any information regarding fixing this issue for the Samsung galaxy book flex, I only see fixes for Wacom or Surface products. The pen pressure is working just fine in Photoshop.

Hello,I have tried the new visual skeleton tool and I always get this when I apply the skeleton, i.e. after having manually assigned the different parts of the skeleton to my character without any problem.Thank you in advance for your help

Dear Sir,  I need a confirmation if Adobe Animate software is going be discontinued after December 2020. I understand it a flash player that will be discontinued and not the Adobe Animate software? Please confirm.  I hope the animators will still be able to use the Adobe Animate software and create animations and will have the feature of exporting the animation in mp4 format (video format). Kindly confirm.  Thanks

So I have an html5 canvas - the mp4 plays everywhere except Safari Mac OS.  I've added mime types, I've implemented byte range servers and I've even hosted the video from vimeo.com and it just won't play using the component.  Any ideas?  These videos play back in safari mac os when visited directly... interestingly once I do that in a separate tab the video loads fine in the component... I'm really stuck.

I need this to only run on layers in the active/open timeline and not go diving into symbols, etc. So for example, the layers…ManWomanDogBackground Would change to…01 Man02 Woman03 Dog04 Background I found this in the Illustator forum, and I assumed the syntax would be similar but I can't get it to work. var docRef = app.activeDocument; with (docRef) { for (var i = 0; i < layers.length; i++) { layers.name = layers.length - i; } } Any help is appreciated!

This might seem crazy to someone more familiar, but a my timeline view has somehow become this single frame layer (right at the point where I'm almost finished and just want to tweak the animation). From a UX point of view it's bizarre as there is no clue how to escape from this back to the complete timeline (with multiple layers).  Any help greatly appreciated! Note to adobe if you're watching the forum, this is a design fail. To enter a view or state without an obvious way to go back where tyou came from.   https://share.getcloudapp.com/v1uxwnxl

I have a 400 frame video that I'd like to be controlled by a slider. Basically I want the slider to scrub through the video. This seems like it should be extraordinarily easy but I've been away from AS 3.0 for so long I'm flummoxed as to where to start. Any thoughts?

When I'm trying to convert .swf to .mp4. I got error:

Hi,When I export Image assets as Spritesheet, the outcoming file contains always Capital letters, ex: risk_intro_aar_pr_atlas_NP_1.jpg The same filename you can find several places in the following js file.The problem is that my customer does not want files containing Capital letters on his server.If I rename the file name to ***_atlas_np_1.jpg my animation will not play since the js file calls the ***_atlas_NP.Is this a way to get rid of those capital letters once for all? I work with e-learning and the courses I work with contain many js and atlas - files. I can not go through all my files, both jpg, and js, and change all the capital letters every time I publish my files ...

Multi-layer view does not work, only the single layer. The multi-view icon on the top left of the timeline only shows one layer and the scroll bar only show one layer. I can only see one at a time. I need to see the full list. Help! Am I missing something? I am using CC Adobe Animate 2020

Does anyone have any basic idea of where I could go to customize the above video component in animate?  I just want to remove a few items and make the play and full screen bigger.  I need to do it was as simply as I can.

Allow me to explain. I'm an After Effects compositor working on a TV series which is animated in Flash (sorry, Animate. Still getting used to that change!). Part of my job involves exporting various SWF layers from the FLA using the excellent "Export Layers as SWFs" script. Many of these layer are deep within nested sub layers. It also involves constantly toggling layers between 'guide' and normal visability while I choose which layers I need to export. And all the time navigating up and down layer trees. It's very tedious and a huge time suck. I would dearly love it if Animate had something like Layer Comps in Photoshop. If you're unfamilar with that, it's basically a way of snapshotting all your layers in their current state (eg visability, guide, etc), and then recalling that state at any point in time. You could have multiple snapshots. So in Animate, you could have a snapshot (or Layer Comp) that isolated just the main character (and worked right through all the nes
