Questions

Dear kind clever person, 🙏 PLEASE HELP ME! I recently switched from Adobe Flash CS6 to Animate CC.   In Flash CS6 i published my cartoons in Quicktime mov. & then had controllers below the stage, to go forwards, backwards, play, pause, or slide the button below the film to any part of the cartoon to be able to make corrections and adjustments to sound, visuals etc.  I am currently making my first animated cartoon in animate CC and it seems happy publishing SWF. files. The problem is there are no controllers with the SWF. file. Once the file is sitting on my desktop it automatically plays, and I can't manipulate the film with a control panel below because there isn't one. I did find a few things under the control drop down menu but it's awkward and i can only move forward one frame at a time which is impossible. I need a whole control panel and a way to start and stop anywhere in the cartoon. Please can you tell me how to obtain an SWF control panel or what is

I'm creating a 2 minute animation. In a couple of segments of the video, I have a sequence of bubbles rising from the bottom of the stage to the top. Each bubble has a word or phrase on them. When I play the animation in the timeline, these words and phrases appear, but when I "test movie," they do not show up, i.e., they are not on the bubbles. I thought this may be because each bit of text has to be a symbol or something, but making the text into symbols didn't work. I also can't seem to "break apart" the text when I edit the rising bubble symbol, otherwise I thought that might work.

How can I stop the other pieces moving  when I drag and drop a piece its a jig saw puzzle p1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, fl_ClickToDrag_24);function fl_ClickToDrag_24(event:MouseEvent):void{p1.startDrag();}stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, fl_ReleaseToDrop_24);function fl_ReleaseToDrop_24(event:MouseEvent):void{p1.stopDrag();if(tar1.hitTestObject(p1.hit1))p1.x=205.2;p1.y=254.8;}

I have discovered an unwanted glitch in Adobe Animate. I am working on a HTML5 animation that works fine untill the replay button is clicked to go back to a section. Then there is unwanted movement. The animation is many words coming in one at a time. I am making MovieClips of the words, bitmapping them first. So I am not dependent on Google fonts. What happens is there is a blur of the words moving from slightly above where they should be to the baseline where they should sit. That is not in any of the Motioning I am creating. I have fixed it somewhat by having all text layers start on the first frame of a MovieClip and hiding them via box overtop that matches the background. It's more work than I feel I need to do. Alpha at 0% would be much easier. I would share a link, but right now my fix is working, so you would not be able to see the glitch. But I fear these next very involved sections will suffer from the same glitch. Eventually there will be a button to

Animate just started creating new keyframes when drawing a new line or moving something and I was hoping to be able to turn off this new option. Similar to switching off the "create a new keyframe option" in the frame picker window. Thanks!

Hi Everyone, Is it easier to animate using Adobe Animate or Illustrator with after effects to create a 2D vector animation (Kurzgesagt/Infographics show style)?Also what is the difference between Adobe animate animations and Adobe illustrator (WITH) after effects animations? Thanks,Gajaan

Two annoying bugs in the new version (using actionscript based documents).1 - When you export video/media - Adobe Media encoder doesn't automatically launch. Only way to fix is to quit Animate and Encoder and open both programs before exporting.2 - When you test the movie and it runs the SWF, it now hangs for around 10 seconds or so before playing the movie? This is so detrimental to my workflow I’ve now gone back to a previous version.Anyone got a fix or found these issues?

IVE TRIED FOR HOURS AND NOTHING WORKS IVE CHANGED THE SETTINGSS ON THE AUDIO USING AUDACITY NOTHING, MP3 NOTHING, OGG NOTHING, WAV NOTHING

No puedo importar audios Mp3 al animate.Tampoco puedo exportar vídeos en .move

I've been having a lot of trouble importing new audios recently. Every time I try and drop a sound in it gives me an error message along the lines of "cannot locate audio file." I've tried everything from installing older versions, deleting the program, restarting my computer, trying shorter audios, and using .wav/other audio formats. The weird thing is all of the older audios I've downloaded prior work perfectly fine, but now when I try importing a new one it doesn't work at all. Also I've been using the same website I always have to convert audio to mp3 (which is YouTube to mp3)  I'm just so frustrated at this point, I have no idea what could have happened or how to fix it

this happens when i add audiio, do you know why?

If you try to export Video/Media with Animate, the latest version of Media encoder will not work.Install version 15.2 instead and hope for a new update soon. A big waste of time.

Hi, i can't find the static rig that a tutorial from the program told me to use, idk where i can download some new rigs? or idk if i have to updatemy version, help pls!

it says WARNING: This movie uses features that are not supported in the Flash Player 32 playerSymbol=Noise_1.mp4, layer=Layer_1, frame=1 H.264 video will not be published.

I made a short 6 second animation, and when I tried to export as an mp4, it had the pop up that's like "creating swf, creating mov", but adobe media encoder did not open and start converting the video to an mp4. I had "start adobe media encoder immedietly" checked, and I even tried unchecking it and putting it into adobe media encoder myself, but adobe media encoder literally will not open, even if I manually click on it to open. All of my apps are up to date. What is happening and how do I fix it?

Hmm, I have this problem where after I am done animating a project, I click "Publish'. Then it says "Importing failed in Adobe Media Encoder". What does that mean? Do I have to install another application for it to work?

This has only stared yesterday. Whenever I go to export my video, I click the video/media tab, I put in the settings that I have always had, I click export, and nothing happens. No Media Encoder, nothing. This is really frustrating me. I really need some help.

I can't export my film of about 15 seconds. The media encoder doesn't open and says swf file isn't supported if I open it myself and try draggin it in. The encoder to turn it into a MP4 isn't queuing anything either after various attemps at diffrent file formats. I have uninstalled and reinstalled both programs but nothing seems to be working. I've even copy and pasted my film into a new project and nothing changes. Hopfully i'm missing something simple it's always just worked strait away before. 

This happened out of nowhere!?I want to export the animation as video and Animate needs to create a SWF in advance, but can't. 😞I was able to do this several times, but now Animate fails. I tried a restart but it keeps failing. The path is short, the file is writeable etc.Any help available?Maybe a log file that might help to find the source of this issue?Thx

I use a Mac desktop and have been exporting media regularly with no problem. Now, Animate times out and Media Encoder doesn't create an .mp4 file.

So literally yesterday, I was working in Animate and it was doing just fine. But when I open it today, the toolbar, properties panel and the timeline are all gone! I soon figured out how to open the timeline and toolbar again, but the Properties panel? That's a new story.So I open up that panel, but when I do that, the timeline disappears! Then when I open up the timeline, the properties panel disappears! Turns out they're a part of the same tab. I can't have both open at the same time now, even though I literally could YESTERDAY. It just seems to have updated without my consent and done this, making the software almost unusable.

I've tried both mp3 and WAV, both fail. I've ran my files through Media Encoder and switched them to 44.1kHz 64kbps and they still fail. Oddly there are some files that do work for whatever reason (and they happen to be mp3 files). The only pattern I've noticed is that ANY audio file I had in my computer before installing Animate works fine but EVERYTHING I've downloaded since fails no matter what.  I'm attaching 2 files, the first is a file I had in my computer before installing Animate, the second one is an mp3 file I ran through Media Encoder to change it to WAV. The first file I can import fine but the second one (in both the original mp3 and WAV) cannot be imported. 

In Animate, i can't upload this one file even if i delete it and redownload it into Animate. Apperently it says it cant read the file because it couldnt read it. Anyone Could have any reason why? Its not the format of the audio, because it worked with an other audio on the same format (mp3)

why does it say this
