This project worked before I updated to this version. My project no longer shows my background images. If I remove the images from the stage it works. Also If I remove all of the gotoAndStop(); functions it will show the images. What am I missing.

Ok. I figured out why it was not working. Frame1 was labeled "Slide1". When on Frame1 if a you have this.gotoAndStop('Slide1') the code fails because Slide1 is being called when on Slide1. I replaced this.gotoAndStop() with this.stop() and it works. I am not sure why I had to make this change for Animate 19.2.1 but I did. This could be a bug.

Hi Jebd
I've looked into your file. First: Your should have included all external files which are dependencies of your FLA:
- C:\ispotworking\Real Jobs\HTML5 Test\jquery-3.3.1.min.js --- (added with Global/Include)
- abc.txt --- (loaded via XMLHttpRequest in frame 0)
Please zip your Countdown-Single-Slide-Template.fla including abc.txt in the root folder and share it again. That we can fully evaluate your problem.
When i publish then I get this in the console:
XML Parsing Error: syntax error
Location: http://127.0.0.1:8090/abc.txt
Line Number 1, Column 1:
and
Error 404: Not Found
File not found
Further why do you include jQuery? As far as I can see from your code you are not using jQuery syntax throughout. i removed it from Global Script and, although this doesn't solve the issue, it's seemingly not necessary either.

Ok. I removed the abc.txt file as it was not being used. Also removed Jquery because it was not used as well. Still does not work. When I run this code in Animate 19.1 is works fine. I think there is a bug in Animate 19.2.1. Code was throwing a 404 error because it was looking for favicon.ico. This is the little icon in a web browsers address bar. I do not have this in any of my code. I am not sure where it is coming from. I created a custom default HTML template and added <link rel="shortcut icon" href="#"/> to the head. This makes the 404 error go away because it is no longer looking for favicon.ico. However code is still not working. It will not show the background image or text. Again this project works in Animate 19.1 and not in Animate 19.2.1. I have uninstalled 19.2.1 and reinstalled and it still does not work. Countdown-Single-Slide-Template.fla - Google Drive

Didn't check your code in its entirety. It seems to me that there's simply a problem with your bitmap background. Not sure what, but after swapping the background bitmap with one of my raster images, the new background shows.

I am having the same issue - images are not showing up but they were at one point. I think I organized the layers into files -test published my banner and then the images are all blank. It looks like a problem with the sprite sheet not loading the images maybe?
I don't know how to debug this and have never encountered this problem before. Does anyone have any ideas?
I can place a different image in place and it will show up - do animations just break now if you maniplutate the image on the timeline?
