Am I able to create interactive infographics using Animate?

Hi.

Sure it's possible.

Working with a HTML5 (Canvas) document, you can create all the workflow and animations with the main timeline, tweens, symbols, and components and then code the interactivity with JavaScript.

You can, for example, create frame labels and stop actions for each question or decision the user has to answer or make in the main timeline like this:

Frame 0

- Label: "start"

- JavaScript: this.stop();

Frame 120

- Label: "intro"

- JavaScript: this.stop();

Frame 360

- Label: "question0"

- JavaScript: this.stop();

And so on.

Then you can create buttons that send the user to the next label, like this:

this.navigate = function(label)
{
    exportRoot.gotoAndPlay(label);
};
this.navButton.on("click", function(){exportRoot.navigate("intro");});

Also don't forget to check the online docs for help.
