brush tool problems in Animate

Community Beginner ,
Mar 13, 2025 Mar 13, 2025

Hello, I'm having a problem with Adobe Animate. The application keeps closing on its own from one moment to the next when using width profiles 4 and 5 of the brush tool, and this has become annoying, as it doesn't allow me to create animations correctly. I have uninstalled the application, logged out of Creative Cloud, and restarted my Mac several times, but still nothing works. I use a Macbook 14 pro M3pro and a wacom to illustrate and animate. This started to happen after my mac's last update, but the other apps work really well. This is what appears when the app unexpectedly closes after using the width profiles of the brush tool. It says that an error has been found and asks to restart the app, but even though it restarts, the problem continues to occur.

1. assign a keyboard shortcut 

2. uninstall animate including preferences 

3. reinstall animate

 

if your keyboard shortcut was reset, test for problems 

 

if it was not, return to 2.

Yeah. I don't know if it has anything to do with the last update from my mac, bc it started to happen after that. But it's the only app that has that default
