Animate

insanely frustrating.   I then have to switch to the arrow tool and move it back to where the line was originally drawn.   I also have object drawing turned on, and it used to be the case (in 5.5) that a box would automatically surround the line after releasing mouse/stylus button.   that way I could instantly delete it or do whatever I wanted without have to highlight it which requires changing tools.   I hope someone can help! thanks

Hi, this happened right now but when i click the home button nothing appears and this part of adobe animate (look in the image) is not appearing. 

Hello!I'm trying to count how many turns the yellow dot (this.area_mc.yellowDot_mc) makes before reaching the center or edge.The yellow dot goes from the edge to the center and then back. I placed a vertical rectangle (rect_mc) and tried to identify the number of turns made with hitTest, but I don't think I was able to make the coordinate transformation work. The rectangle can be either inside area_mc or outside, but the yellow dot must be inside the area. I tried all localToGlobal, localToLocal, globalToLocal methods but I was unsuccessful. link to the .fla file: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1UPHJDcEc6sps58bExh6dNnwDuAXLwLJ8/view?usp=sharingI thank you for your help.

Just updated animate, when drawing (object drawing mode is off) the 'vector groups' animate makes are working funky. The transparent parts of however animate stores layers are not transparent, and so the image adobe makes is overlapping with other layers? For whatever reason updating the frame (I mean like updating a redstone block, not updating animate) by toggling locking or visibility temporarily fixes it, but when played the problem reappears. Halp, I need to animate 😞 

After the last update, the audio in the timeline (stream mode) does not work, only when I click enter.

Why vectors with opacity get convert into movie clip when I copy it into the Adobe Animate from Illustrator?

 Hi, so I am working on a cartoon right now using raster images provided by a client. For the most part, things have gone smoothely, but the last few days, when I reopen the project to keep working on it, half the assets in my scene are in the wrong places, or they shrink and dissapear as they tween. I'm attaching a few sample files. As you can see, body parts are everywhere except where they should be! The scenes were mostly finished and rendered beautifully before this, but when I went back the next day to fix a minor issue, this is what I found. Any advice?    

Is Adobe Animate connected to effects/motion presets in Adobe Bridge like Adobe it is in After Effects or is there only the 30 motion presets built to choose from in Animate? ThanksDavid

I would like to ask our dear developers are we, users, doomed now to always have two versions of Animate on our machines? One -actual version, and another (ver 22 max) for opening old FLA files? No judgment!  We just need to know. We are working with your software and paying for it.  Thank you!

Hi, is there a way to extract a list of keyframe numbers (or better still, timestamps) for all keyframes on a given layer in an Animate file?  I want to be able to mark up specific points in the animation using blank keyframes on a dummy layer, then once the animation is finshed, extract the keyframe numbers or timestamps into a text file.  I'm a novice at coding, but from what I've seen in other discussions, it seems like it should be feasible.  Thanks!

I used wrap tool in Adobe Animate for the body parts of a character. But when I imported this character into my main character then character's body parts replaced with the body parts of other characters in that project. Please help.

I'm working on a class project right now for a small 2D interactive game. I have an interactive button that makes the character jump over the hole but I can't get the rest of the classic tween of them skating after it to continue playing. Is it something in the code that it is causing it to do that? This is what I have right now. Thank you for the help. this.stop();this.jumpbtn.addEventListener("click", function (jumpbtn){this.gotoAndPlay(40);}.bind(this));

Hello-I've seen some posts about this but no real solution.  We have a production where we are making 5 minute episodes in animate. We are creating the radio plays for the animatics in Adobe Premiere. We are using the standard 24.000 FPS (not 23.976).  When we import these files to Animate, either as MP4, WAV, or whatever, the audio falls out of sync over time.  Becoming very noticable at 1 minute, and unbearable by minute 4. As a very experienced editor/animator, our animation house and I have been unable to figure out where this glitch is happening.  It must be a frame rate issue. Are there sequence settings in Adobe Animate that can be found?   The exported audio is 48,000, WAV. Any help would be appreciated.

i have an Xp-pen artist 15.6 pro and im trying to learn adobe animate for simple animation, but i the short key and the pressure dont work proprely. the zoom wheel work only when i zoom out and there are no pressure when i use the pen. im new with this can someone help? thx  i have the last driver for my xp-pen (3.4.11) and the last version of animate.

So basically everytime i export my animation, even though in the app it looks fine, when i export it every symbol i used the frame picker one glitches like that, the eyes used to do the same but i used another (bad) technique to fix it, it wouldnt be a problem if the other technique wasnt so bad (making a copy of the symbol everytime i wanted to change it), since it takes too much time and space to do.Here is the file on animate and both the glitched exports.

Hello, newbie, I have a problem that I can't solve. I have 4 movieClips that I can move using the mouse: clip1, clip 2.... When clicking on a clip, I want to save a myVar variable which gives me a numerical value of the clip I click on and based on its position in the recip variable. For example, clicking on clip0, myVar = 0, clicking on clip2, the myVar = 2... Many thanks to anyone who can help me. Var myVar ; var recip = [this.clip0, this.clip1, this.clip2, this.clip3] var objet = []; for (var i = 0; i < recip.length; i++) { objet[i] = [recip[i].x, recip[i].y]; recip[i].addEventListener("mousedown", startMouvRecip.bind(app)) recip[i].addEventListener("pressmove", mouvRecip.bind(app)); recip[i].addEventListener("pressup", stopmouvRecip.bind(app)); }; 

Hi Everyone, I'm doing some animation with the asset wrap tool. I noticed it creates a kind of a symbol "wrappedasset_01" etc., but it does not appear in the library. Any way to rename it? The problem is that I'm doing several animation on different files and then combining them. since the wrap tool creates for each one the same "name" when I copy they overwrite each other. Any ideas? Thanks, Oded

Same as above in the question. Is there a way or code that will allow me to save the javascript code that is placed on frames on the main timeline to a text document with the ".txt" extension? I saw that there is an option to save things from library like: sounds and images. But is there an option to save all the javascript code? Thank you for your answer!

pls help

Why, when I scale shapes in the "position and size" menu, do they scale from the top left corner? I want to scale shapes to specific pixel sizes, and I just want them to scale from the center. Scaling from the transform menu does so from the center reference point, but it only works with percentages. There's got to be some simple explanation for this. I'm experienced with Illustrator, InDesign, and Photoshop, and I'm very confused why they'd make scaling work so differently in Animate.
