Animate

Hi allI've just realised I've made a fairly big error!  I created shapes using the pen tool and filled them, then when i was tweaking them the outline didn't move with them as i didnt double click, but i had thought it didn't matter as i didn't need the outline, so I've then deleted all the outlines.  Any how, I've now just realised i do infact need those outlines!!  Does anyone know of a way i can add the outline back on?  Ideally I don't want to have to draw everything again.  I was just beginning to animate, so i have conerted everything into symbols too.  Any hekp would be appreacited!Thanksx

Sometimes Animate no longer allows me to change the color on fills/strokes with the color tab. I can only change via the strokes and fill tab - which only allows access to swatches or the more obtuse color picker attached to the swatch tab. The regular color picker no longer has any effect. The color in the tab will look like it's working then immediately reverts to the previous color. The only way to get it working correctly again is to close the program and open it again - then it may work for five minutes or so before it reverts again. This has been going on for quite some time - erratically though. Sometimes it will be fine for days, then out of the blue it goes haywire again.Also when it is in this uncooperative state, if I select a color via the color tab and attempt to add it to my swatches, it immediately reverts to the previous color and saves the previous color as a swatch. The only way to get it back is to close the program and restart. And then it will work correctly f

Hi all, I'm new to Animate so the issue I'm having has been hard to find any information on. When I convert a file to HTML5 canvas and export it, the resulting HTML file opens in all browsers and displays as it should. However, when I uploaded the zipped folder and extracted to my domain's Cpanel so I could preview it online, it still works in all browsers except for Chrome. In Chrome it displays as a blank white page. I don't know where to begin tracking this issue down. Thanks all.

Descargue la aplicación de prueba gratuita y al iniciarla cree un nuevo proyecto pero al dibujar, si se puede pero lo que impide trabajar es que se te bloquea con una pantalla blanca, lo eh vuelto a reinstalar pero el error persiste ¿Cómo solucionarlo?

I cannot publish images from a Canvas project besides 8-bit PNGs. Textures, Spritesheets, Image assets will not export if it is not an 8-bit PNG.This seems to have broken in the latest update Build 20.0.3. Downgraded to 20.0.2 and it is working fine.Bug Report submitted.

I have just installed Adobe Animate the other day and was excited to begin. But when i begun to draw using my Surface Book 2 and Surface Pen the line did not match where i was drawing. To describe it, when i placed my pen down on the screen and attempted to draw a line, it would create a line directly up from where i placed it down. I would then draw along the screen and the line would appear quite a way up from where i was actually drawing on the screen.   Here is a diagram since i explained it badly. I am new to the program so it could be a stupid mistake but i really need a way to fix it as i need to do a project.

Hi there, I'm a newbie to Animate. I have a simple scissor animation which cuts along a path (this is done).What I want to do now is have marks where the scissors are going to, and when the scissor crosses the mark, the mark is removed. I should note : the path the scissor takes is circular, or at least joins up - it is not always a straight line.I don't know how to do it. I looked at masks which looks promising? e.g.           X_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ __ __ _ _ _ _ _[end]  When my scissor X gets to end, all the dashes should disapear. I would also like more complex dashes to follow. Any help/tips/strategy would be appreciated. Is there an easy way to achieve this? 

Can SWF files be used in Microsoft PowerPoint? If not, what is recommended as the most suitable export format from Animate to be used in Microsoft PowerPoint?

Hello everyone.I m just a little worried about something.Is video encoder free if i buy an Animate license ?it seems to required if i want to export videos.(i m on windows plateform)thanks 

Hi! I've moved to a UI programmer position in a games company and I'm unused to Flash, though I used it a tiny bit back in the day to experiment with making games. I've inherited a bunch of flash files and would like to explore what's in them, but it seems like I can't do that, so I'm interested in what I'm misunderstanding, or not aware of, and also interested in ways to fix it. Here's what I think I know.- A flash file has a library, which is a set of user-defined archetypes.- There is also a scene, which seems to be recreated when opening a movieclip from the library for examination.- Movieclips can have children.- Looking at the timeline there are layers. These don't correspond to child movieclips but can own them in some ways, allowing you to hide/lock them.- There used to be a pane called "Movie Explorer" or something, in Flash, that got deprecated when they made Animate.- No substitute was made for the removal of this feature.- There is currently no way to see exp

I'm using Adobe Animate 2020 on different devices, but when I use it on my MacBook Air, it looks strange (see on picture). All icons and the stuff on the right and left are bigger than normal and I can hardly work like that, because my screen is not that big. Do you know how I can change that to normal?

I have a video that is played by the Adobe Animate video component. I would like that after the end of this video, the animation moves forward one frame. I need to control the time of the video. Does anyone know if this is possible in HTML5?

Even after using the correct way of accessing an object when Advanced Layers is ticked, I am not able to access the object. The comipler is not showing any errors but when testing, it won't even recognise the button as a button. It doesn't even change the cursor and when clicked, nothing happens. stop(); GrowButton.home.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, start);function start (event:Mouse event):void{      gotoAndPlay(105);}

This must be really basic, but I can't figure it out. How do I switch to outline mode for onion skinning? Flash used to have its own button. I've found an icon that I think is supposed to control this (two overlapping squares) but it's always greyed out. 

Hi I've made a very simple animation. Followed the tutorial by CC. When I 'test' in web browser the animation works. When I click the little play symbol within Adobe Animate window, nothing happens. When I export an animated gif, nothing happens it's also static. Is this an easy fix. I have 3 simple things moving on the page. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you.

animate bug.jpgHi, Recently I got a Huion GT 221 Pro tablet and downloaded some of adobe's products onto it. The pen works fine in Photoshop however in animate it keeps drawing lines almost a couple of inches below where I put the pen, I'm not sure if this is a problem with the tablet or adobe nut I'd appreciate any help. Thanks,Blake 

When I open animate my wacom tablet thinks its being viewed over all 3 of monitors instead of just one. I'm using Animate 20.0.2 which should've included a fix for this issue but its still not working. Wacom works properly in every other adobe program.

I have a Wacom drawing tablet and I have it so I can use it on one monitor out of the 3 I have attached on my computer. For some reason though whenever I have adobe animate focused with my tablet the cursor goes to all 3 monitors on the screen instead of the one I have setup with photoshop and illustrator. Why is that happening?

Wacom pen mapping settings won't work in Adobe Animate 20.0.2, but will work for other Adobe programs (Photoshop and Illustrator). I configure the map to apply to only a portion of the tablet in the top left. This top left mapping works for other Adobe programs, as well as general OS navigation, Chrome, Spotify, etc. As soon as I enter Adobe Animate, it no longer uses the previously defined pen map. The pen acts as if the map included the tablets entire width and height. I have updated Wacom drivers.I have restarted computer.I have unplugged/plugged tablet in. Only fix: older versions of Animate (20.0) Please help.Thanks! I'm using a Wacom "Inutos Art, Comic, Photo, 3D (2015) on Windows 10 Home. 

Hi, recently I've been having a ton of issues with Animate and I'm trying to figure everything out. For some reason, Animate won't let me map my tablet to one monitor, despite all my other drawing programs letting me do so. This problem is fixed when I switch back to 19.2.1, but then I have issues with the line quality being extremely inconsistent.If there is a solution for the mapping issue or the line inconsistensy problem, either solution would work. Thank you.

Howdy, I need a bit of help. I'm trying to create an input field (text) that when you enter a number (say 50) and then action a button that the movie timeline goes to frame 50 and stops. Thanks Simon
