When i scrub, the audio still plays, But it sounds weird. This makes it hard to manually lip sync. The audio doesnt fully play, Its almost as if it only plays every couple frames? I dont exactly know how to describe it. When I play, The audio plays just fine.

I've been working on a demo of an interactive "timeline" for a client. I'm very new to HTML5 Canvas and have been pulling the functionality together through folks here and around the internet.The problem is that the user should be able to touch the timeline and drag it along to see events. It works OK on a browser, but the dragging does NOT work on a touch screen - which is ultimately how this project will be viewed.Here is the demo currently. As you can see, you can click the timeline and drag it along.https://dev.northeastcolor.com/PFTimeline/Timeline042720.htmlHere is my code. Any help is much appreciated. var that = this; var pages; that.start = function () { createjs.Touch.enable(true); stage.mouseMoveOutside = true; pages = that.timeline1; pages.on("mousedown",that.mouseDownHandler); } that.mouseDownHandler = function(e) { e.currentTarget.offsetX = (e.stageX / stage.scaleX) - e.currentTarget.x; pages.on("pressmove",that.pressMoveHandler); }; that.pressMoveHa

I am creating a banner ad in Adobe Animate. There are several gradients in it theat client is very fond of. They look good when i scrub the timeline in Animate, but when I watch the preview movie, there is banding and blotches in the gradients. I have seen other banner ads with gradients that look good, but I'm nervous that this blotchiness will show when it's on the web. Which preview should I trust? Are gradients in Animate a bad idea? Is there a way to safely use gradients in Animate?

I am designing my first web banner ad. I understand file size has to be less than 150 KB. When I bring type from Illustrator to Animate, (either drag and drop to stage, or copy and paste) it makes the file size much bigger than when I set the same type in Animate. Importing type as type or outlining it makes no difference. Visually, it looks like the correct size. And I immediately make it into a movie clip, same as any type I set in animate. I don't understand why the file size gets blown up? Illustrator is so much better for type-with more control to kern and tweak. Animate apparently doesn't cater much to finessing type. Is there a way to import type and have it the same as Animate type in file size? OR is there a better way to kern text in Animate that I can't find?

Hallo in die Runde,hat auch jemande Probleme mit dem Publishing von Canvas Animationen? Ich arbeite jetzt mit den gleichen Dateien seit September und musste heute Korrekturen einarbeiten. Mit nicht geänderten Veröffentlichungseinstellungen unter der Programmversion 20.3, läuft die Animation in keinem Browser. Jetzt bin ich auf die Version 20.2 zurückgegangen und alles läuft normal. Unter anderem habe ich das Problem, dass wenn die Bildeinstellung auf Sprite gestellt ist, kein Bild im image-Ordner abgelegt wird.  Kann mir jemand genau sagen, was in 20.3 an dem Canvas-Element geändert wurde. Meine kleinen Scripte funktionieren leider auch nur, wenn ich über 20.2 veröffentliche. Vielen Dank für eure AntwortenJo ***Hi everyone, does anyone have any problems with publishing Canvas animations? I have been working with the same files since September and had to make corrections today. With unmodified publishing settings under program version 20.3, t

How can I animate a 360 turn when using symbols for each section of the body?

Hi thereI'm creating animations in Animate cc using the Snapsvg Animator. I used to go to Control>test which would open the test animation in my browser (Chrome), however it seems to have stopped allowing me to do this? Now if I click on test the Timeline panel flicks over to the Output panel and specifies the publish settings but it no longer opens a browser tab and plays the animation....despite 'test > in browser' being ticked in the menu.I know this is a question regarding a third party plugin but I can't find specific forum for it anywhere else. Help on this would be much appreciated Cheers.

I'm working on an HTML5 animation. I've got the animation built. At the bottom, there is text that needs to act as the "button" that will bring up a pop up box. Then it should hide the pop up with any click on pop up box.  I've watched countless tutorials, but can't seem to get a script to make this work. Most of the tutorial have a set "view" and "hide" button which won't work with my project. I'm using Action Script snippits from the Code snippit panels. I've got my button set up as a button symbol (btnShow) and my pop up box set up as a movie clip symbol (mc_PopUp). One thing I'm having trouble with is how to also use that pop up box (mc_PopUp) to also act as a button that will hide itself when clicked. If anyone can help, I would so appreciate it!

Newbie here... I'm trying to convert a Flash drag and drop game to HTML 5 using animate but don't know where to start. The links to a few examples I've found on this forum don't seem to work anymore. Is there any updated drag and drop tutorial? What's the secret of identifying a drop target? Thanks...  

Hi All, I am very new to HTML5/CreateJS and am having trouble on my animation. My original stage size is 3x as large and originally I had tried to scale it by decreasing the document size, but then all of my coordinates and positions were off. Since that didn't work the way I wanted it to, I opted to change the HTML directly and scaled by .7 in the makeResponsive() function.   function makeResponsive(isResp, respDim, isScale, scaleType) { var lastW, lastH, lastS=1; window.addEventListener('resize', resizeCanvas); resizeCanvas(); function resizeCanvas() { var w = lib.properties.width, h = lib.properties.height; var iw = window.innerWidth, ih=window.innerHeight; var pRatio = window.devicePixelRatio || 1, xRatio=iw/w, yRatio=ih/h, sRatio=1; if(isResp) { if((respDim=='width'&&lastW==iw) || (respDim=='height'&&lastH==ih)) { sRatio = lastS; } else if

Hello!I am new to animate and I am trying to create an application/HTML page where my android device screen masks a part of a video and reveals more of it as I move the device on the horizontal axis. (therefore the video will be larger than my screen in width).a reference for what I am trying to do can be found at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=23bkYYWsFC0&feature=youtu.beCan this be done with animate?I have experimented with skybox but It seems that it only helps with creating panoramic videos (not what I am looking for). is there a way to do this? maybe with the accelerometer? any tutorials on that? Thanks 

Hi,Being able to import an animated character sequence (from Ch) into Animator (An) seems a must have ! Is there a way ? There is a real need to be able to integrate easily elements from Character Animator into Animate. It doesn't seem to work. I'm new to the animation industry and I'm starting with Animate (An). I'm very surprised to see the inexistance of integration between the 2 tools, and I'm far from being the only one !  Cheers,Tchak

I am a long time user of Flash and Animate.  I opened it up today and for the life of me I cannot find the gradient transform tool.  What am I missing?  This a productivity killer.  I've spent the past half hour looking for it.

old time flash user (10+ years ago) hereso im just having a look, playing with animating my logo for videos etc. My logo is white text with an outline, so i guess you cant have a solid outline on actual text but.... So if I break it appart to make a shape, I still cant find how to add an outline? I'd prefer NOT to go back into illustrator and make a different version of my logo

I have a fairly straightforward interactive slide-show project here with pictures doing a sort of Ken Burns pan & scan, cross-dissolving, etc. over background audio. The major issues that are slowing me down significantly are that I can't seem to zoom the timeline out far enough, and when I'm dragging something along the timeline, it is invisible so I can't easily line it up with other layers. Example - I'm zoomed all the way out. The background audio on a particular segment is 2m10s - I have 14 images that need to play one after the other - the basic zoom & dissolve animation is set, To add the next picture, I just duplicate the layer, and drag it further along the timeline. The problem is I have to drag it a long way down the timeline to get to the end of the previous picture - since I can't zoom out any further I just have to drag the item to the edge of the timeline and wait as it painfully slowly scrolls along. Since I can't see the item I'm dragging while I'm dragging it,

 Hello, I am currently dealing with a problem where my program display distorts on animate and audition. Adobe apps aren't the only apps that do this but I would like to know if there is a correlation with the 2 programs that can help me troubleshoot this problem. I have looked into this maybe being a DPI scaling issue on windows 10 but everything I have done isn't helping. If anyone could help I'd appreciate it so much! - Luke  

I've been trying to move anchor points within tweens (motion tweens specifically), but I wonder if the tween has an effect on whether or not I can move them. The problem is, when I add a rotating effect on the object, the anchor point moves completely outside of the center and throws off the whole rotation. Also, when I bend the path of an object the same thing happens.  

I desparately need help with a needed function.  I have 25 numbered buttons, each leading to a question and question page leads to answer page, then back to the main menu for contestants to choose another numbered button; simple right!  I'm a pastor and a graphic artist, who is  less than a nubie with AS3. I need help making the buttons disappear from the main menu once they have been selected. When the last button have been selected during the game. I want to be able to reset the visibility of all of the buttons in order to replay the (movie) game again from the start. Any help would be most appreciated. I will gladly upload my file that you may examine the code.  Thank you.

So I've try and try, but fail to get it right. I'm trying make Button/Object reveal itself from hidingGot the button to be false and now Im trying get where a keystroke.. let say "j" to get the button to come true Button.visible = false;stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, fl_KeyboardDownHandler_4);function fl_KeyboardDownHandler_4(event:KeyboardEvent):void{trace("j" + event.keyCode);Button.visible = true;} Clearly I'm doing it wrong. I think I'm suppose to add a event for the hidden object. I've done different ways, but none works. Anyone know how I could get this to work? It be very awesome if anyone can help. Would also like to know if there a way to do it using more than one keystroke. Like is it using + or == ? 

Hey, guys so I just recently paid for the $20 per month Adobe Animate plan. In the tools menu,  a few of the tools are shaded. These work fine however I do not have access to the tools that are not shaded. I really need to use the warp tool but its one of the unshaded tools. I'm really frustrated and the official tech support is no help at all! Just a bunch of dudes in India who are just as clueless about the problem as I am. Seriously I'm so fed up right now. Thanks in advance.

I can't access my fluid brush because it's greyed out. I tried searching for a solution but I can't seem to find one that fits my situation.I believe I meet the requirements to enable it, but I guess I could be wrong. Anyone know a solution? Using: Adobe Animate CC 2020 (v.20.0.3)GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760It is "DirectX 12 Compliant", however I'm not sure how to check if it's "with feature level 12_0 support."I've already tried updating my Graphics Card and my OS, but I'm still having the same issue...

I have an SWF extension panel and the issue appears when I try to show an alert if the user selects another document in Animate. It shows many many times, and I can't figure out why..jsfl code: var docChangedID = fl.addEventListener( "documentChanged", onDocumentChangedHandler ); function onDocumentChangedHandler(){ var panelChange = fl.getSwfPanel("mySWFpanel", false ); panelChange.call( "changeDoc" ); }  AS code: ExternalInterface.addCallback('changeDoc', this.enabledList ); function enabledList() : void { list.dataProvider.removeAll(); MMExecute("fl.trace(\"you are change FLA file\");"); MMExecute('alert("you are change FLA file");'); //MMExecute('fl.runScript(fl.configURI + "/WindowSWF/mySWFpanel.jsfl", "showAlert");'); } 

Hey there.I am wanting some 'drag and drop' functionality for a module I am creating.I have tried a few tutorials but I can't quite get my head around it. Plus, the tutorials that are available seem to be more focused around not using the timeline and more using pure code. I would rather use the timeline + Instance names etc.Essentially I have 3 drag objects. They need to be placed in the correct position named box1, box2, box3. Once the user has all 3 drag objects correctly in the boxes, a button appears to move onto the next stage. I've uploaded my project here.I feel like I'm not using the full power of Adobe Animate - if you see some things that I am doing wrong please also let me know!I am using video imported from another program, and then I use z-index:-1 on the dom overlay once the program has been exported (so that the buttons become interactive, otherwise they are behind the video).Thanks for your time and in helping me out here.

Windows 10, newest version of Animate. Hey all. I'm relatively new to Animate, but I knew Flash pretty well so it was an easy transition.I've completed an animation that's about 3' and 190 MB and I'm trying to export it. Now, I have an SSD that's pretty much just for my OS, I only have about 20 spare gigs on it. My HDD, however, has 1.6 TB, so no sweat. Of course I have Animate on my HDD. That said, when I attempt to export as mp4 (h.264), the initial progress bar goes up to 100, but then the last 20 gigs of my SSD slowly dwindle down to 0. When the SSD hits 0, Animate stops responding, and after about 15 mins, I get an "UNKNOWN ERROR; THE PROGRAM WILL EXIT" and Animate exits out immediately. After I restart my PC, the SSD is back to it's normal level. I've been told that it is because Animate does a raw rendering to the C drive and then encodes that particular rendering into mp4? If this is the case, is it possible that I can change the directory for the initial, tempor
