Disappearing Brush Strokes

So I'm fairly new to Adobe Animate so excuse me if I get a few things wrong here.

 

I am using a fairly older version of Adobe Animate (2021 Version 21.0.6) since someone had this before me but I am trying to edit a spritesheet and all of my brush strokes are just disappearing! Is there a way to fix this? Thank you!

    I also noticed that when I press the middle mouse button it shows my brush strokes outline but it isn't there.


    OML I FIXED IT! I NEEDED TO TURN ON OBJECT DRAWING MODE!

    you're trying to edit a bitmap?

     

    if so, click modify > bitmap > trace bitmap.

     

    experiment with different settings until you find settings you like that are usable.

     

    then you'll have a vector which you can edit in animate.

    I figured out that editing a spritesheet normally wont let me use the brush tool but I'll look into that and see if it works. Thanks.

    Well it won't let me go into trace bitmap.
