Animate

When I save or my work auto saves it will the saving bar will go up to 41% and just stay there. I am not making huge changes to the project. The Project is only sitting at around 1000 Keyframes and I am only adding 100 at a time. Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.

Hello, I've spent the last few weeks working on an animation in CC 2020, and I was editing the sounds in the timeline. I tried to copy a sound frame from a previous animation in an older version of Animate and the file glitched out while importing. It wouldn't let me save after this, and it said that an error occurred with no further details the next time I tried to open the file. I'm just learning to make backups of every save, so my lesson is learned, but I was hoping there was a way to bring it back somehow. The .swf file still works, and the .fla file still has all of the same file sizes. Is there a way to bring it back? I have both files here. https://www.mediafire.com/folder/kx1dww1pbxhk9/

Hey, I've been working on a small project in Animate CC and found that it won't draw lines shorter than maybe half an inch or dots. how do I fix this? I've tried messing with the drawing preferences and nothing will work. is anyone else having this problem? I have a Huion Kanvas GT-221 Pro Tablet and it works perfectly fine in other adobe programs. If anyone knows the answer or has suggestions, I'd muchly appreciate it. Thanks.

Hello!Is there a way to search for a movieclip by it's instance name?We have a lot of fla's, created by different animators, and we can see the instance names (compiled inside the code), but when we open the fla, we have to search manually for the movie clip that has that instance name and it's really time-consuming.Is there a way to locate that object inside Animate, by typing the instance name? Not as a build-in feature (because I know that is not possible), but with JSFL command or any other type of method/plugin/code/anything.Thank you!

Animate crashes every time I try to export to quicktime movie 

I am trying to create an animation where symbols follow a scaling guide across the screen. The symbols will begin invisible (Alpha: 0), then become completely visible (Alpha 100) about 1/3 of the way across the guide. At 2/3, the symbols will once again become transparent, fading into invisibility again at the end of the guide. The guide is set up (a straight line with Width Profile 1) so that the symbols get a little larger as they go across, then smaller as they reach the end. Pretty simple. Here's the problem: In the animation that I'm trying, the symbols stop 2/3 of the way across and disappear. The first 2/3 of the guide perform as intended, but the last 2/3 do not function as I said. The odd thing is: the animation works perfectly on the stage. Nothing seems amiss. But when I export or test the scene, the malfunction occurs. This is so bizarre. I've done scaling guides exactly like these before without issue. The ONLY animation that works as intended is the one animatio

When I publish from Animate, it places the code https://code.createjs.com/createjs-2015.11.26.min.js in the html5 file. Thus when using the published html file in a website on a server, it has to go to another server to get the "createjs file". Can the createjs file be placed on the server running the website so that there is no need to go to another server? I have some very old Animate files that published with the createjs code calling an http website rather than the current https website for createjs.

We used to use flash for everything back in the day - animated content, infographics, logo idents, the lot. But we always exported to .swf, and then rendered these in a browser. Now, not so much. I still enjoy using Flash - Animate now, i guess - but would Animate allow me to export animated content to commonly used moving image formats such as .gif or .mp4 without a considerable amount of work transcoding the content out of Animate itself? And also with minimal loss of quality? I'd like a good reason to subscribe but i'd also like to hear from users - not administrators or adobe sales - as to how they feel about the newer application. I guess another question would be - what is the logical evolution for someone that used to use Flash? in terms of animated content? There's not anything else in the adobe stable that i'm aware of which is able to do what the software used to, unless i've missed something.

Hello!The issue looks two ways:  First, when I draw,  its actually drawing a couple of inches away from where I am actually pointing--theres like a giant offset of a few inches. Second, when I draw, it is as if I am constantly shift clicking 3-5 inches away, making a bunch of straight horizontal lines.  The issues fluctuate between each other depending on wheter the "supports digital ink" setting on my tablet is turned on or off.   These issues happen when I use my dual screen setup, though drawing works accurately when I am just using my single monitor;graphics-tablet.  But I want to use both my monitors-graphics tablet, and my regular computer monitor! Regardless of whether I use Adobe Animate version 20.03 or 19.2.1, the issue this persists when I am using dual monitors.  When I am in dual screen mode, my drawing still works accurately in other drawing programs like microsoft paint and adobe photoshop! This leads me to believe t

Hi everyone.  First, a refresher on shortcuts:go one frame back:  comma go one frame forward: period jump to the start of timeline:  shift + commajump to the end of the timeline:  shift + period Anyways my issue is that oftentimes, when I press comma or period to navigate the timeline, instead of it moving one frame, instead it will sometimes jump to the beginning/end of the timeline, as if I was holding down shift while I press comma/period.  However, I am not holding down shift!  I know for sure that it thinks shift is active because when I try to use the brush tool, it makes straight lines, and when I try to select a frame, it selects multiple frames.  When I am in this predicament, I have to press random keys in order to make shift unstuck.  Things will work normal for a minute (when i press comma or period, ir moves one frame like it should), but soon, it thinks shift is being held down again, and I have to unstuck it by

Hello !I wanted to have some explanations about Adobe Animate cc 2020.I'm gonna be honest,I really don't like the new version,I likes the original canvas more and it runs way too slower,isn't there any way I can get the old version back ?For now,I've only did the trial version,i don't like the 2020 version and i don't wanna regret by buying it,so I hope you can answer my question 

I did the hands on bouncing ball tutorial that comes installed in the most recent version of Animate and it really helped me to understand the basic concepts of the software.  However when I try to create my own project file from scratch, nothing works. In the project file for the tutorial I can draw shapes and import bitmaps, but when I try to do that in a new project, my work his hidden (like it's behind a layer). I've attached screen shots.  Help?

Help! I just downloaded Animate onto my Mac and when I try to open the program a popup states: "Could not write to the directory /Users/[USER]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Animate 2020/en_US". How do I fix this so I am able to use the program?

I'm trying to create an animation that is supposed to go on top of a video I've filmed. The problem is when I import the video into adobe animate, it doesn't move. It's stuck on the first frame. Only when you go into "test" will it actually move, but that makes the process of animation so much more difficult.

This has been present since installation and seems to only occur when the camera is enabled, any solutions?

I downloaded adobe animate from the creative cloud and used it my first day with no issues. When I came back the next day, however, animate crashed on launch. Every time I try to open it, the startup window shows up and as soon as it says "building workspace", a crash report shows up and the program closes. I also have Photoshop and Dream weaver downloaded and they both still work fine. I have attempted the following to fix this:1. uninstalling and reinstalling animate2. uninstalling and reinstalling adobe creative cloud3. signing out and back into my adobe account4. restarting my computer5. updating windows 10( I should have mentioned this earlier but I am using windows 10)6. turning off the firewall and antivirus7. Updating my drivers( I know this is more for gaming but I thought it would be worth trying) I saw that an issue like this happened in 2018 involving the number of fonts on your computer could crash Animate but Adobe claimed to have fixed this and I have the latest ver

I have a Macbook Pro 16", Core i9, 16GB ram, GPU: AMD 5500 pro, 4GB VRAM. I tried several times to import a simple vector (about 40 Mb)  to adobe animate cc (latest version), and it either crashes or gets freeze for a long time, and I have to force quit Adobe animate. Since there is no preference setting for adobe animate; unlike photoshop or premiere, what should I do? Thanks in advance.  Topics 

Hi I have a live action video that I filmed that I want to animate.  Problem is, I don't really know which adobe software to use (or if it is even possible with adobe).  It wouldn't be a complex animation. https://www.reddit.com/r/W2S/comments/g60vo7/little_bit_of_animation_of_harry_crossbar/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x It would be along the lines of the animation in the link above. 

Hello! I work a lot with programs like Maya and Photoshop. Both programs have a hotkey when held down you can easily zoom in and adjust size where you specify with your cursor.  In Photoshop, if you holw down ALT and scroll with the wheel you can zoom into things easily. It is essential to work. I just got into animate because i intend to create some 2d animations. BUT i cannot find anywhere the zoom hotkey. There should be a key like in photoshop that if held down you can zoom with the wheel , no?  It feels so awkward and time consuming to adjust the zoom ratio on top by typing 50% or 120% etc...  There must be a hotkey for this no? Z is for zooming, but its not good because you cant control the amount with the wheel. It just set to preset amount, it feels uncomfortable... OMG i wish i could delete this post. Never mind, i fixed it lol. I resetted the program settings and what do you know, its CTRL + scroll lol what an idiot i am sorry guys

So I’m trying to animate from a tutorial using the fluid brush. I’m pretty new to animate but did flash years ago and work almost daily in after effects. My problem is I have a shape inside a symbol, and I am trying to add bold, but non-uniform, border on the inside of the shape. Just imagine for the sake of this it’s a circle. Here’s my process: - I have the circle inside the symbol layer just as a shape- I click and select the circle- keeping the circle selected, I then click the fluid brush and change the brush mode to “paint selection”- I try to paint but it just paints like normal, extending over and outside of the bounds of the shape.Am I missing something? I've tried it with object mode on and off, with the fill locked and unlocked. Not only that but I tried changing it to EVERY different brush mode and it just paint like normal. That makes me think I’m just doing something wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I can see using this feature A LOT. Attache
