Animate

I am having issues with volume control on a simple Tennise Ball bounce sound. I tried using an MP3 and a Wav file but the software is not allowing me to sellect Effect pallet to do a custom volume control. Do I have to do anything before I can control the volume? I tried changing the sound to EVENT, STREAM and other things but the Effect Pallet will not highlight what so ever. What am I doing wrong 😞

I'm trying 2D character animation for game making, but it's a lot trickier than I thought. My character is broken up into dozens of separate symbols: head, arms, legs, etc. In addition, my animation requires a lot of character rotation, which means that an arm or a leg could appear behind the character's body in some frames, and then in front of the body in other frames.  Are there any reliable tutorials for animating a 2D character that has multiple layers of foreground, middle ground, and background? 

no matter what I do every time i open adobe animate the create options (and/or new project) will not appear, the spaces in which they appear are there but the options themselves will not load. I've tried restarting the computer, I've tried re-loading the creative cloud but it doesn't seem to work. I don't think it has anything to do with the creative cloud or the proxy network thingy (read a bunch of forums telling me to set up a proxy server amd etc...) I can use animate but it'll only allow me to use the edit, file and other options you can find at the very top of the screen but either than that it's basically useless. so someone please help, I'm in the middle of com tech and have little to no time to fix this, teacher suggested i restart the computer and now I'm here.

Hi, I can't select any brush from the Brush library. It's not working with the classic brush tool and it is also not working with the fluid brush tool. Double clicking a brush in the library does not ad it to the document. Is this a known bug? or am i missing something? Any help is much apreciated.

Is Animate available on iPad? I saw a post say that it is yet I can't seem to get it on my iPad! I find it so much easier to drawy on my ipad so would love for Adobe to release an iOS version.

Animate skips the first frame of the timeline when exporting video. This then leaves a 2s blank at the start of the video. You can crop this in Media Encoder, but this is very tedius when doing lots of videos. The other way is to export using the 'Time' feild. This ignores the first 2s as default. But i don't want to use this feaure as all my animations are various lengths and it's hard to define exactly how long they are. Anyone know a way to do this? I'm not sure why the first 2s of blank aren't automaticlly ignored?? Cheers! M

Hi there, I hope this post finds you all well and that maybe someone here could help me out with an issue I'm having. While working in Animate CC 2020, whenever I move a keyframe on the timeline, or grab a symbol from the library, or simply paste anything into any keyframe, I keep getting a pop up window asking me if I want to turn on advanced layers. Advanced Layers, however, is already on.This can become very annoying when I'm trying to adjust minor keyframe timing. Litteraly anytime I move anything the pop up window will appear. Anyone know how to deal with this issue? Much appreciated!

Hello I was sent an .fla file by a potential client to see if I could convert the animation to HTML5. As luck would have it - I do still have CS6 on my computer - but when I  hit F9, in the opened file, I see this:  Warning: in this unregistered version, no Action Script will be generated while exporting the FLA. Please purchase the full version to get Action Script at http://www.sothink.com/product/flashdecompiler/index.htm. Questions: 1.  Can I work on ActionScript 1 in Flash CS6 (I know I used to be able to?!?? I do not see ANY ActionScript only that warning)?2.  If not, is there anyway to see/work with ActionScript 1?3. What is the meaning of that warning?4.  Does anyone have any links on best practices for converting an ActionScript 1 & 2 fla file to HTML5?!!  Thank you!!

How can I change the language of Animate CC from English to Bengali, so that I can easily copy-paste any Bengali sentence from the browser?

Does anyone know how I can determine if a contact is dependent on flash and if so what is the process to remediate.  thank you

i need some help with conversion: I have been a long time user of flash and actionscript but now I have to think ahead and all my AS3 scripts need to be converted to .js html5.  So I am new to the platform ".js/canvas"  I want to continue to use animate CC to publish HTML5 content.  Below is the script in Actionscript 3 (which works) can anyone assist me on converting the below script. to adobe animate CC html5.  I am willing to supply files if needed:   so my enviroment is a closed network" and I am parsing out jackpot information from a XML paramater name  see below: so the paramater that I am linking to is called jackpot_powerball which is in a XML and the value is submitted like 680000000 without commas.  or dollar sign:  my script below adds the dollar sign & commas  var amt23Check:Number = Number(root.loaderInfo.parameters.jackpot_powerball); if (amt23Check > 999999999){var PB_JP_Num = formatAsDolla

Hi, new to animate but this seems pretty basic- I can get so far through an animation on a particular layer - successfully moving objects on to the canvas and adding tweens (alpha/fades). So far down the timeline (around 2200 frames) however, the timeline becomes dark grey and if I move an object onto the canvas, it snaps back to its origin, leaveing a blue outline box where I wanted it. If I try on a light grey pat of the timeline before this, it's fine. I've re-installed Animate - same issue. I've tried deleting the dark grey frames, and adding new frame to place the object, but the timeline always appears as dark gey/cannot move objects were I want them. It's a basic 'animation' - just tracklist text appearing then fading over a background for a 45min or so audio mix. I've tried working on a new layer - same issues - tried resaving the file - same issue.

Imported a multi-layered PSD of a bug into Animate,the head and body worked fine with the Assest Warp pin,the legs do not work, for no apparent reason;each PSD layer is on its own Animate layer,checking with the tutorial, I converted the bitmaps to movieclip symbols. When you hover over the item with the Asset Warp pin there is a little No Entry symbol. Why would one layer work and not another?Makes no sense.   

Hello everyone, I am experiencing an issue with testing my HTML5 Canvas project. What currently happens is when I test my scene for the first time after opening my file, it will test just fine.  Open File 1: Frame 1: Test 1: Correct  But any time I test after the first time, some of my assets disappear.  Open File 1: Frame 1: Test 2: IncorrectThis will even occur right after closing out of the working test and exectuting a test seconds later. Sometimes it will make different assets disappear during different test executions.  Open File 2: Frame 1: Test 2: Incorrect  I could just keep closing and opening my file to make it work, but this will very much likely discourage any future development using Adobe Animate. I am not a programmer by trade, so I will need to do a lot of trial and error of my file, and this way of working around the issue isn't ideal. I'm wondering if anyone has experienced the same issue and could provide some assist

Hi! I believe the paint brush tool in adobe animate is either broken or has a severely bad intended UI. I have spent 1+ days trying to get it to work to no avail, and I have found articles showing that the code is "Deprecated". Basically, I go to to the brush library to add custom brushes to paint with. I double click to add to document, however, the brush is never active -- my output when I draw is always the same dynamic brush, and I have no otpion to use any custom brushes. I go into the properties tool for the brush or the dynamic brush and it never gives me stroke options or style options. What do I do!? You'll notice that even though double I clicked on "Caligraphy 1" to add it to the document, I still got a normal dynamic brush, and, I have no actual options anywhere that I can find to actually change the stroke options or the brush style. When I click on fluid brush in the top right too nothing happens. I'm so confused and beyond frustrated. Need help.

Is there a way to convert an mp4 animated file to allow changes?   I reached out to the author to offer a gig to do the edit but no reply. This is the MP4 I will purchase and hope to modify the race of some of the subjects. Thanks    

Please i need your help! After the last update i can't move the timeline markers, neither for the multiple framse selection nor for the onionskin frame range. Anyone had the same trouble or some suggestion? 

So I have a problem where artwork inside a symbol will disapear.   Example:I have a character.  I animate the scene, save etc.   Close the file.   Next time I open it up, the eyes are missing.  But you can see a white square where the symbol is.  In fact, the symbol is still there.  When you go inside the symbol however, all that's inside is a single blank frame.  No matter how many layers or frames was inside it before, there's just a single blank frame.This doesn't happen often, but when it does, it can set me back an hour or two fixing things, depending on the symbol that it happens to.   Currently, it's a set of symbols in a prop that have emptied.   Any ideas?

Hi We have converted FLA files to Html5 using Adobe Animate.In our original FLA file we have software built where sound plays without any interaction of user(Automatic).  But when loading converted html files with chrome default sound is not playing....

So, I read about this problem a few times. I imported an Image and converted it into a button. Then this Error appears: "Content with both Bitmaps and Buttons may generate local security errors in some browsers if run from the local file system."In Firefox everything works, but in Chrome and Safari it doesn't. I read that this can be fixed by using a local web server. The problem is that I can't do this because it is a project for university and I'm supposed so just hand in a html file.But what can I do? I tried to put a button over my Image, made it invisible and used it for my functions. But i need something that I can convert to a button. I tried text or a shape but the same error appears.
