Animate

I'd like to create a symbol and apply different text to each instance of the symbol:  Is this possible? I prefer just applying a property, without being required to use ActionScript.

How can I list all the local users configured on a windows machine (Win10+) using AS3.I would prefer doing this without using any other third party programming languages if possible.Preferable some native method to Animate CC.

In previous versions of Animate, in both AS3 and Canvas documents, JPEGs in the library would allow you to choose to choose between either using the imported JPEG data, or a custom compression setting for publishing.Granted, Canvas documents seemed to always ignore the request to use imported data and would instead republish them using a quality of apparently around 80%. This was annoying, but provided reasonably-sized output files. Now in the last couple of updates, instead of properly fixing this, Adobe has apparently made the problem even worse. Instead of fixing the inability to publish imported JPEGs from Canvas documents, that option has been removed entirely and replaced with "Use best qualty: 100". This causes simply republishing old pages in the current version to generate MASSIVELY larger files. Nobody in their right mind ever uses 100 quality for JPEG. If you want quality that high, you just switch to PNG. If they'd changed this option to something like "Use global

Hi there!I'm sure this topic go through many apps, not only Animate.Many time I receive layouts with many empty layers and of course I delete them, but there also are inbetween some non empty layers, so I have to select one by one in order to delete them.So, is there a way to delete empty layers automatically in Animate?Thanks in advance!

I've tried a million things and can't get this sound to play either from the "test" menu item or from a local server.I have previewed the sound in Animate and it plays, it's a 128kb MP3, and I've tried on Mac Safari, Chrome, and Firefox. Still, I get no sound.I'm sure it's something simple... first time trying to do this... help is much appreciated!My Code:createjs.Sound.on("fileload", handleLoad);  createjs.Sound.registerSound("sounds/discoSong.mp3", "myID", 3);function handleLoad(event) {  createjs.Sound.play("myID");    var myInstance = createjs.Sound.play("myID");  console.log(myInstance); } The output from that console.log:a {_listeners: null, _captureListeners: null, src: "sounds/discoSong.mp3", uniqueId: 1, playState: "playSucceeded", …}"playSucceeded"... I think not!Thanks!

Adobe Edge Animate... I know it is old... but it is still the best HTML5 authoring program around (way better than Google Web Designer)... I have a lot of projects built in it... and since I upgraded my CC sub... it no longer loads... I get the spinning wheel and "Please wait a moment"? HEEEELLLLLPPPP!!!!?

Hello, simply, after installing Animate, it crashes on Loading Document Templates. I have tried v23 and v24, tried all the steps for the app crashing, deleted old folders, reinstalled, reinstalled GPU driver. Here's the crash report:https://pastebin.com/Ps9VtcyZ

So basically I'm trying to see if i can put a line in the middle of a shape I drew so I can cut the outside portition of the eye cause I know that if I do this righ the shape split by the line will count as two different shapes that I can select independtly from each other and delete one without affecting the other (since i've done this before) but when I try to do it now the shape instead just deletes the section of line tht it overlaps and I want to know if it's a settings I got to turn on or something I messed up (the pupil was drawn with the oval tool and the eye was also drawn with the ovaltool with a bit of help of the line tool used to make the top flat part)

I was browsing the internet trying to find a way to convert .swf files into .mp4 or .mov files. The only answers I was finding were how to convert using various other softwares besides the Adobe Creative Suite. I discovered that After Effects could perform this task.How to convert an .swf file into a .mov or .mp4 file:1. Open up After Effects and import the .swf file.    - File > Import > Import File > (Choose .swf file)2. Drag the .swf file into your Render queue, or send it through the tabs    - Composition - Add to Render Queue3. In the render queue set your settings in the Output module and Output the file to wherever you want it to go.I hope this helps...good luck on converting your .swf file.

I have upgraded my CS4 to CS5 on MAC OSX and i'm having problems saving new and existing fla files. It doesnt always do it but it's very anoying when you have done some work and are unable to save it.I get this message:unable to save document as (file name)please try saving to a different filename or location.even if i try to save as to a different location i get the same message, this ONLY happens in flash CS5 and does not do it on any other application or even flash CS4. To put it bluntly i am absolutely furious with this and when you pay this amount of money should not get this hassle for such a simple action.I have tried phoneing the adobe support line and it's a joke, you can't even understand the operator to even get anywhere and i just gave up having to repeat myself and asking them to repeat themselves.I would be grateful if someone out there knows an answer to this or have a contact email for adobe support that i can email them direct. As a flash developer it's critical i can

Hi everyone,I'm new to Adobe Animate. And just noticed that there's a new Animate version, namely 24.I'm not sure what this means: "This release of Animate runs natively on the apple silicon chipsets.."Does that mean that running it on a regular Intel CPU will come with disadvantages, or even problems?  

why the heck does adobe animate pencil lining do this it annoys me

i pretty much ignore this everytime adobe animate quits itself cause i don't know the words to report but I want it to stop quitting itself

So upon searching the forums regarding this subject, I came across a discussion made back in 2015. The poster asked if a keyboard shortcut could be given to the "swap color" tool on Adobe Flash (Animate). The poster did not get any effective solution other than being told to file a feature request to Adobe... Even today the keyboard shortcut option for swap color is still not present in Adobe Animate CC.Here is a link to the 2015 discussion for anyone's reference: Keyboard shortcut for swapping colors between fill and stroke in Flash Pro CS6? So far, with other discussions I have made regarding keyboard shortcuts that I wanted to have available on Adobe Animate, I have gotten some remarkable responses of people creating custom scripts that serve the exact function I was looking for. I have lightly practiced with script writing over the past month but I have still not quite perfected it yet.. and still produce some buggy scripts lol. What I have learned from these forums is that there i

Suppose I have a symbol my, and I copy two copies, both of which come from the symbol my. Now I can find the current symbol I selected through the symbol my in the library, but I cannot select the symbol my copy1 or my copy2.For multiple copies of symbol my, is there a way for jsfl to find and select cpoy1 or cpoy2?In addition, I did not layer these three symbols. They were all placed on one layer. I wanted to find copies of them to edit, which was very difficult.I think if you layer the symbol you can find it, but finding it on one layer is difficult, and the copy of the symbol doesn't have any information for reference.Please help, thank you all

New to Animate, thanks for the help.  I am trying to animate a simple character walking.  Behind him is the background of a hallway.  It moves right to left as the character walks.  Then the character enters the bedroom which is a new background.  It also moves from right to left, then stops.  He interacts with another character and the background dissolves to another scene (background #3).  I'm having trouble getting from one background to the next.  I used new layers for the 2nd background (bedroom) and the 3rd background (new scene).  The classic tween works on the first background but not #s 2 or 3.  Can't find a tutorial that seems to address this.  Again, thanks.  

When i open Adobe Animate, it just keeps saying "Creating Workspace" and nothing happens.

For adobe animate I've been trying to use the keyboard shortcuts specifically for frames F5 F7 more specifically, none of those shortcuts are working I have tried many other things like checking settings and making sure I'm selecting things correctly. Unsure of what to do. 

Hello, during rendering the animation does not load completely. When previewing the animation, all layers are active. The animation is as it should be. when I want to click publish or export, only one layer is animated. I made animations for all the symbols that I created myself. Well, during the final animation you can see the animation of only one character.    

Why are most other Adobe Software programs up to date and working with Mac OS Ventura but not Adobe Animate? I mean Adobe Animate is not even on the compatible with macOS 13 Ventura website. Any information on this would greatly appreciate.    https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install/kb/macos-ventura-compatability-common-issues.html
