Question

Adobe Express animations not starting on load

I have exported a presentation from the indesign file in order to make my first adobe express presentation. Then, in Adobe Express,  I have added some animations both to pages as a whole as well as to the individual elements. Unfortunately I had to remove all these animations, because all the animated elements displayed blank and a user would have to press the animation triangle button to make them to show up.
Is there a way to make these animations to run automatically on load?

Hi 

@tomekkie

,

 

We're sorry to hear about this. Would you be willing to take a screenshot or screen recording of the issue? Also, did you try using the other suggested browsers (Safari, Microsoft Edge, and Google Chrome) or incognito mode to see if it makes a difference? 

 

Regards,

Tarun

This is my presentation:
Probudex - prezentacja

After exporting it from indesign I made small corrections like fixing superscripts an so on in browser (Firefox) and standalone versions of express. Then I tried replaying it in Edge in incognito mode. There are no animations there now, because I've removed them.

But I am not sure if that is a just design idea, that a user has always to press a play button to start any animation, no matter whether it is an Adobe Express animation or mp4 movie.
