Animate

Hi everyone!When working on animation projects, collecting useful visual references can make the creative process much easier. I often find interesting short videos, movements, transitions, and visual effects that give me ideas for future creative projects.I also explore online media tools such as SanpTikk.io for saving TikTok videos to watch later. Having video references available offline can be useful when studying movements, scene transitions,character expressions, or different animation styles.For those working with Adobe Animate, I am curious about how you collect and organize your creative references before starting a project.Do you save reference videos in separate folders, use mood boards, or organize everything through dedicated creative apps?What tools do you find most useful for keeping visual inspiration organized and accessible?I would love to hear about your creative workflows and recommendations!

Apologies for the spelling error. In the question I meant to say, Corrupting. When I started college. Adobe animate would sometimes freeze up and lag, where some of the keyboard was stopped working and all I would have to do is just turn off the computer and reset it and nothing will corrupt. This will happen on the school computers and my own personal computer. Now recently it’s been doing a the same thing of but now it sometimes corrupts the file. It’ll be fine for several days or a week then out of the blue it corrupt a file and then I have to go back to a previous save which it undone a lot of work. I don’t know if it’s a bug or if I have to delete animate and reinstall it, but I shouldn’t have to create several files and saves cluttering up my computer and flash drive, just out of worry for something that should only happen every once in a while. I don’t know it’s because you guys have been stopped updating it, but I feel like it’s unfair for people to constantly pay a monthly fee

I'm trying to make my way through the Animate hands-on fireplace tutorial but it's not letting me progress beyond the first step (clicking the next button does nothing). I've tried restarting the tutorial and rebooting the application. Is there perhaps a way to force the tutorial to continue onto the next step? Thanks in advance.

might be a stupid question but i wasn’t able to upload my file to the creative cloud -- said some file types aren’t supported and I guess that includes .fla? really need to be able to work on this from multiple computers -- any help appreciated!

Hi,I am a project manager working on a children's book app using Adobe Animate 2024 (HTML5 Canvas / CreateJS). I am targeting for iPad/tablet performance.My Setup:* Main file: idby_danny_karta_.fla (Contains the main map with a button named btn_danny and a timeline layer named galleries which acts as the target container).* External module: idby_danny_galleri.fla (Published as idby_danny_galleri.js). Its main library symbol is a MovieClip named mc_danny_galleri.The Problem:Due to the strict memory isolation and Composition ID handling in Animate 2024, our Frame 1 runtime code loads the external .js file, but fails to instantiate and render the mc_danny_galleri symbol into the galleries container on the main timeline. Clicking the button registers, but the container remains empty on screen.What is the correct, standard way to achieve this modular loading in HTML5 Canvas without breaking library references or asset paths? Should this be handled purely via runtime code on Frame 1, or is t

Dit probleem van trage opstart doet zich pas sinds een week of 3 à 4 voor. 

Hey everyone,I’m trying to reinstall Adobe Flash Professional CS6 from my original installation CD. When I went to Adobe’s support chat, the virtual assistant basically said my email isn’t linked to any active plan and told me to sign in with another account.After that, I couldn’t even find a way to reach a human agent. There was no “still need help” option or anything like that, and the chat just keeps looping back to the bot.I don’t have a Creative Cloud subscription or anything like that anymore—just the original CS6 disc and whatever serial info I have from back then.Has anyone else run into this with older Adobe software? Is there still a way to contact a real support agent for legacy installs, or am I basically stuck with the CD and no official help?Any advice would be appreciated.

Im doing the rocket launch tutorial and the “this.rocket.stop();” isnt working when it tells me to put that in the actions panel for the first frame on the rocket, I made sure the syntax is valid and I also tried just doing “this.stop();” but its not working. I also made sure the rockets instance name is “rocket”

Okay, I’ve shown this code for years and it worked fine, and it works fine on Windows machines and older Macintoshes, but now when we run this code on a Mac OS on a M-chip the Cursor completely disappears from the computer, but just in the Stage.This is using ActionScript 3.0. We are making Custom Cursors, in this case the Cursor is named “Pumpkin_Cursor”. When we run the test the cursor shows up as the pumpkin image, but if you move the mouse outside of the stage you get no cursor. When you CLOSE the test SWF stage there is no cursor! You have to quit Adobe Animate and restart it. stage.addChild(Pumpkin_Cursor);Pumpkin_Cursor.mouseEnabled = false;Pumpkin_Cursor.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, fl_CustomMouseCursor);function fl_CustomMouseCursor(event:Event){    Pumpkin_Cursor.x = stage.mouseX;    Pumpkin_Cursor.y = stage.mouseY;}Mouse.hide(); Now, YES once we ADD additional code to Re-Show the mouse Cursor it does come back, but only Sometimes! But when testing just the cursor repl

Why did the welcome screen of my Adobe Animate change after I installed Adobe After Effects?

Everything works fine in Animate but when I publish it there is no music. When I publish as a .swf the sound is there. When I put it out as a .mp4 it doesn’t play the sound.I want it to be an .mp4. How do I do that?

What now?Like many others, I am stunned by Adobe's incredibly stupid decision to discontinue Animate. Like many animators, this software is the cornerstone of my business. I have been an animator for 20 years and now I will have to start from scratch with new software that I will have to pay for in addition to the Adobe suite.Because, contrary to what Adobe would have us believe, there is no equivalent Adobe software that will allow me to produce animations as quickly and easily as Animate. After Effects is simply not suited to animation, and anyone who has ever worked on Animate knows that a 2D vector project is incredibly easier and faster to work on in Animate than in After Effects. So forget that!So now what software should I choose?Toon Boom? $147 per month??? Seriously?? Twice the price of the entire Creative Suite???In short, I'm lost... I have a deep hatred for Adobe, I dream of being able to do without their products, I hope their company goes bankrupt as a result of bad decis

Hi, guys. I'm struggling with my project in adobe animate, I need to make a stopwatch. And I need some point of the time to be noted or called or recorded. I have no clue how to make it. I just found several answers about countdown timers and don't understand it. I'm new to adobe animate canvas. would anyone please help me? Thank you.

How do you access the other sections? I need to change to Frame to change the sound 

I've updated to Animate 2024 recently, but I can't get code completion to work in my AS3 projects. Keyboard shortcut (Ctrl+Space) is set, and "Code hints" checkbox is enabled in preferences. Hinting works fine in 23.0.2

Hi! I'm looking for help recovering a corrupted Adobe Animate FLA file called flutterbat halloween.fla.My PC unexpectedly shut down, and afterward Animate showed “An error occurred opening file.” The file is approximately 46 MB, but it won't open. I checked Auto-Recovery, found no recovery file, and tried WinRAR's repair feature without success. I also checked OneDrive, but couldn't find a previous version.I have a copy of the damaged FLA available. Would you be able to inspect it and determine whether any of the animation, timeline, layers, or assets can be recovered? Please let me know whether any of ya offer this service and whether there is a fee before I send the file.Thank you!

I just switched to a new computer (Windows) and installed Animate. Now whenever I used the Classic Brush tool, each stroke starts out as slightly transparent with a lined pattern inside. This pattern disappears when I release my pen and the stroke returns to normal. This doesn’t interfere with the drawing, but it’s definitely annoying. The Fluid Brush or Pencil do not have the same issue.Here is a video of what it looks like.Is this an issue with Animate itself? Or does this indicate something else like a driver problem? I use a Cintiq 16.

Now that Adobe Animate is going away, what alternatives are there for those of us that used it for HTML5 banners? Anything other than Google Web Designer? Not a fan of that and hope Adobe plans to have other vector based animation that will export HTML5 banners for web ads?

Is there a bullet proof method to ensure the fonts I choose are visible to everyone?   Using Google web fonts let’s me see the Roboto font, as long as I look at the canvas from my computer. Other viewers only see the default serif font. Looks like I’m luck! or so I thought.How do I get the font I want to use, to display for people who are not using my computer to browse my website? My CSS file ensures all the text on my site uses Roboto: @import url('https://googleapis.com');*{ font-family: Roboto,Arial,sans-serif!important; margin: 0; padding: 0} The code on my canvas page only shows the font to me. <script>function LoadGFonts(families, comp) { var lib=comp.getLibrary(); var googleObject = {type: "Google", loadedFonts: 0, totalFonts: families.length, callOnLoad: lib.gfontAvailable}; for(var i =0; i < families.length; i++) isFontAvailable(gFontsFamilies[i], googleObject); }function isFontAvailable(font, obj) { var timeOut = 5000; var delay

Hello I’m new to Animate,When I try to run “Import Motion XML” command whilst selecting the symbol on the stage, It spits out an error saying:At line 1 of file “MotionXML.jsfl”:SyntaxError: xml is a reserved identifierI looked up online what is causing this just to be turned towards 1 unsolved question and adobe’s help page on how to import XML files. Is there an updated version of the command?

Hello friends, I need some help. I created an application using ActionScript 3.0, and I want to generate an .apk file. However, I’m unable to publish the apk, and I’m getting this error message as shown in the attached image. I believe I followed the same steps I usually do, but this time something went wrong. Why is this happening?
