Issue with editing sound in Animate

Hello, 

 

I am fairly new to working with Animate and I am having difficulties working with editing sound. I have to create a HTML5 project, include sound and use the edit sound envelope. I have added my audio files to the library and on my timeline, however the effect and edit sound envelope options are grayed out and I can not use them. I just finished the practice lesson where both buttons worked previously, I do not know what to do now.

    I believe that those features are achieved with ActionScript. At the very least the features are not there in HTML5.

    You can read what CreateJS can do with sound when you have code, here:

    But, there isn't any envelope feature.

    Thank you, I switch the file to Actionscript and it worked.

    You aren't planning on putting this online, are you?
