Asset warp difficulty

Explorer ,
Mar 28, 2025 Mar 28, 2025

Hello. The asset warp feature has quite a lot of potential. However I experience a lot of crashes when dealing with warping bitmaps. I have imported a photoshop file as animate layers. When I apply asset warp to them Adobe animate crashes a lot. When I use the envelope option I have had situations when the envelope endpoints will move on their own while using the program, forcing me to have to redo a lot of work over and over. I'm not sure but if the file has different types of bones (soft bones, flexi bones, hard bones) in the same file, even on completely different meshes, it appears to exacerbate the issue. 

 

I was hoping that if a graphic symbol had several frames of different poses of a warped bitmap mesh, that when I keyframed the symbol in the main timeline and later exposed the mesh on the main timeline by breaking the symbols key frames in the main timeline, that I would be able to motion tween between the poses. This is not the case. Even though the exposed meshes are the same skeleton, animate does not recognize them that way and motion tween does not work unless you stay in the main timeline. 

 

The idea is there and the potential for a versatile rigging engine is too. But the current state of the tools are not qualifying as pro level. 

if you can, please fine tune these tools and eliminate bugs and inconsistent behavior so that I can have peace of mind while using Adobe animate. It as a integral part of the Adobe ecosystem has an incredible edge as a animation program. I just would like it to be a pro level application. 


remember you are advertising pro level tools and I pay $60 a month to access them. With photoshop and After effects, Audition, and Premiere pro I feel like I am getting pro level software. However with animate I don't feel that way. 

I don't understand why. I must say the app has come a long way the latest features are amazing and seamless workflow between photoshop and after effects are impeccable. 

I don't use advance layers as their features aren't not compatible with swf format or after effects. 

Photoshop is the cornerstone of my creative process but Animate allows me to express myself creatively in 4 dimensions. 


keep up the good work and I hope to have a more professional level of Adobe Animate.

Nice post, mate, but don't expect anyone at Adobe to listen or respond. At this stage Animate seems to be completely abandoned:
