Animate

i just updated to animate 2021 and it seems that i can no longer drag keyframes up or down the timeline if they reside in separate folders. in older versions of animate this was possible and not having this ability will seriously cripple my workflow. has anyone else discovered this bug/feature removal?here is a short video of what's happening, i select the frames vertically that reside in seperate folders in the timeline and when i attempt to drag them to a new location on the timeline nothing happens when i release. this is very frustrating. i did submit a bug report but just wanted to put it out to the community as wellhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fuTwmkHwLuU

I am new to Adobe Animate and need to create a presentation in AS6. My problem:There are 16 images. On frames from 1 to 160    --   Keyframes which change the image are 10, 20, 30  etc till 160At each keyframe a new image is displayed with navigation buttons on top (like Home, Next, Previous, About etc)The button  instances are called - e.g. for the "Home" Button:  home1_btn, home2_btn,  ... home16_btn,For the "Next" button: home1_btn, home2_btn,  ... home16_btn and so on. The big question - do I have to write the same mouse click events - 16 times - that is create an AS3 for each button instance?The logic would demand that one would write one  code for the base button out of which 16 button instances are created.And that when one uses an instance of this base button then automatically - if the user ticks "yes" - the code associated to this base button would be executed:Just as the 4 different states (Up/Over/Click/Hit) of a b

Hi Adobe!is it me who is completely delirious or you were very strongly "inspired" by my drawings to create your rigging model on the Animate V21? I am torn between being flattered or very annoyed not to have been contacted ... especially since just a few weeks ago I sent you a link to my job during one of your satisfaction surveys.

Hi,I want to change the position of the symbol i created with Actionscript to a certain length, first from top to bottom, then from right to left. Can you help me? 

I clicked on the tool item that looks like 🛠️ and clicked the << button but it only shows thebes swatches and switch to black and white tool but no oval or brush that should come pre-installed by default in the toolbar.I have the tool bar item and expanded it with the <</>> button but when expanded is empty. The software has been reloaded too and still no luck.

Hi there, after I installed the update for adobe animate the software keeps cashing on me. Now everytime I open up animate, it gives me a small screen I can't respond to on the top left corner on my computer. It won't even allow me to go full screen or close the tab. I've tried un-installing and re-installing the software and i'm still having these problems. Can anyone here help me please?

For a project for college, I wanted to animate some waves. The waves in question are a shape made in Illustrator using a gradient of different shades of blue. When I try to import this file into Animate it always turns the wave a solid red colour. I tried changing the file from CMYK to RGB, importing them seperately from the other images, using different extensions, but they always end up red. Why does this happen and, more importantly, how do I solve it? Attached is the image in Illustrater and the same file in Animate. Illustrator: Animate: 

Hi folks, Can someone please help me convert this AS3 to javascript? I have an illustration with dozens of movie clips. When the user clicks on a movie clip, it becomes active and when they press certain keys on the keyboard, it plays a frame of the movie clip and changes color. A lot of this is redundant because there are 6 states/colors and I use some numbers, keyboard and key pad. I have this.stop(); at the end of each state in the movie clips, but the rest has me baffled. Also, I used the Flash Input Text Component, so the user could enter a number, but they no longer work with javascript. What can I use instead? Thanks. import flash.display.MovieClip;import flash.events.KeyboardEvent;import flash.text.TextField; var selectedMC:MovieClip; stage.stageFocusRect = false; for (var i:int = 0; i < stage.numChildren; i++){               if (stage.getChildAt(i) is MovieClip)    

When I create an animation in flash I have discovered that 30 seconds covers exactly 450 frames when I test. Yet, when I convert that same file to Canvas, it plays very rapidly and ends at 15 seconds. Anyone know why the conflict in timing? 

What is the programing language I'm editing in when make an HTML5 Canvas file in Animate? Is this ActionScript 3.0 or something else? Line

 Please help me to figure out how to add adMMob to my Actionscript 3 app. There isn't well-written documentation on how to do it. I only found a youtube video that explains it but still, it was not well and fully described. for the bits and pieces of information that I gathered, I managed to construct the following code, however, it errors. Please help to reconstruct the code so I get it to work. First I got Pozirk's AdMob Air Native Extension from githubI installed the AdMob.swc and the AdMob.ane files in the Advanced ActionScript settingsI created a class file called Main.as which contains the following code:package { import flash.display.MovieClip; import com.pozirk.ads.admob.AdMob; import com.pozirk.ads.admob.AdParams; import com.pozirk.ads.admob.AdEvent; var _admob: AdMob = new AdMob(); public class Main extends MovieClip { public function Main() { //> initialization of AdMob _admob.addEventListener(AdEvent.INIT_OK, onEvent); _admob.addEventListene

Hi, when i test the film, a movie clip repeats itself over and over again on stage. But it should only play once.How can i stop a movie clip at the end without script?

Picture it: i draw a "messy box" with the line tool.  Four lines, overshot at the corners, like a Tic Tac Toe grid: (Why not just use the rectangle tool? Because i'm frequently tracing something in a photo to highlight it, and the shape is usually not uniform. And it might be an irregular polygon. But let's start simply.)i want to write a JSFL script that fills the middle: deletes the stroke:re-applies a "clean" stroke:  and deletes the interior fill:So essentially, it's a script that cleans up all the messy "tails" on the rough shape i draw: And yes, i do this very, very often, so it's really worth writing a script to do it for me!i know how to delete the stroke in step 2. i'm stuck at the part where i'm filling the empty shape in step 1.Just like addFilter(), JSFL doesn't really let you just conjure up a fill where there isn't already one. So i've been messing around with trying to select the bucket tool, setting a fill colour, finding the middle of the

Hi everyone! It's been a whilte since I made a game in Adobe (Flash sadface) now Animate. I could have sworn back in the day the code to create a variable was var varName = 1; Question 1) I want to have var equal to a number would that be correct? Question 2) If I had a button in a movieclip and I wanted that number to go up +1, would this be the code:exportRoot.varName ++;Question 3) If I wanted to do a if/then code if the variable got up to 3 or more.. would it be: if varName >= 3 { doSomething; } Question 4) Is there a list of Adobe Animate ActionScript codes for HTML5 canvas games somewhere that I can look at? Thanks ahead, Line 

COMPONENTS PARAMETER IN HTML5 (canvas)MP4 Video falls to start, although Auto Play is checked in the components parameters window, when testing the animation. Is it me, or is it the latest version of Animate?

Hi! I have a movieclip with a button in it. I want the button to tell a movieclip named TriesRemainingMC on the maintimeline which is stopped on it's first frame to play. I was thinking the code should be:  function PumpkinDeath(){stage.TriesRemainingMC.play();} Thanks ahead for your reply,Line

Hello, I have been working in Google web designer to create ad campaigns, as a designer I would love to make the switch to adobe animate but am stuggling to find support material for creating a full campaign in animate. Most of the resources I have found are to build one off ads not a full set, can you direct me to any resources to help me move to animate. Below are some examples of the html5 ads we have created.  Example ads created in google web designer: 300x250300x600728x90 Thank you! 

Hi everyone,  When I try to use the HTML5 code snippets on a movieclip I get this: To add code for this object, please select an instance of the object in either the mainline or in a Movie Clip timeline. I do select an instance of the object...    

There is a Captivate project with Animate animations in it.  These animations play when the project is hosted on Internet Explorer but do not appear when the project is played in Chrome.  The developers wanted to delay the Captivate next button until the animation finished and added the following code to the project-  window.parent.parent.window.cpAPIInterface.pause();window.parent.parent.window.cpAPIInterface.play();Would appreciate any ideas on how to fix this.Thank you,Susan

Hi,I have been assigned an education project. It needs to do the following:1. Contain a multiple choice quiz which accumulates results depending on right/wrong answers 2 The user has to be able to navigate backwards/forwards and to different sections and categories of the project2. It needs also to display animated info graphics to convey necessary information in an engaging way3. The whole project needs to work on the web and on a stand alone touch screen (which may not be connected to the web).I have done some research and I am aware there are many great templates available in After Effects and Premier Pro for info graphics but I can't build interactivity in to that . . . can I?So my question is this:What work flow any of you who have experience of this kind of thing recommend please?I'm thinking that probably I would use Animate as the framework and import elements from Premier and AfterEffects.Or have I got this all wrong? Is there a better application for this sort of project

I was making a small animation on Animate and whenever I add new objects to the stage, it makes a copy of the main layer. Thing is, it cannot be interacted with, if I move the item that I can touch, the other will move with it, then center. I made a copy of the item I added to the stage, the problem went away. But as I edited it, it was disappearing into the project. And the frames before that were effected as if I somehow took an eraser to all of them. Then I try to replicate those frames, and then the image comes back again.

i'm trying to apply a filter to a layer using JSFL, but i only understand how to derive an existing filter from somewhere else. i don't quite know how to initialize/instantiate a filter out of thin air.  Is it possible? Right now, i'm manually applying a filter to the bottommost layer, and then my JSFL script uses getFiltersAtFrame/setFiltersAtFrame to apply that filter to other layers. i'd love to be able to skip that first manual step, though. All of the examples i see in the documentation begin with some form of "getFilters" before using some form of "setFilters." But i don't see any sort of "whatever = new Filter()" intialization, or any way to work with a filter that doesn't preexist. - Ryan
