Just getting started with Animator and the built in videos are too small to see. Is there a zoom?

I'm just getting started with the suite and trying to follow the tutorials, in Animator at the moment, but the included video is -tiny- on my screen, and it's too small for me to actually see what's going on. Is there a way to zoom or pause it? I can't seem to find one, and I didn't see one in the Help system when I looked.

Hi.

Another thing that you can do is go to Animate's installation folder and search for .mp4 files using Windows Explorer's search bar on the top right of the window.

In my case, I went to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Animate 2023 and then searched for .mp4, waited a few seconds and all videos were listed for me.

I know it's not ideal, maybe it's worth giving this approach a try.

JC

Thanks for this suggestion! I found the directory and can play the videos directly. And also found out why they appear so tiny - the resolution is 640x360.

This'll work for getting through the built in tutorials.

Thanks to everyone for the help here. Much appreciated!

I was using Adobe Animate from the Creative Cloud collection, and tried
several of the built-in tutorials. I'm sure I can find other tutorials on
the site, but figured the ones built into the app would be most convenient
and in context - at least if I could see them. 🙂
