How can i disable "Automatic Tweened Symbol"? (ADOBE ANIMATE)

[theguy2763]

Ive been trying to animate without that happening, But i guess i turned it on cuz it seemed ok and more easy to manage, but WELP! Guess theres no reversal card for this. Anyone know how i can get this out of this option?

I'm not sure what "Automatic Tweened Symbol" means. Do you mean Auto-Keyframe? If so, just press the button with an 'a' above the timeline to turn it off.

[theguy2763]

Well i just basically enabled a popup whenever my thingy wasent a symbol.. It turned into a symbol, I couldent turn it back off (cuz im dum), And now i need help.

[kglad]

what steps are you taking that cause the problem?

[theguy2763]

I dont know, I just checkboxed "Dont Show Again" when adobe animate told me that my thingy wasent a symbol. Which i thought was good, BUT NOW I CANT REVERSE THIS ACTION.

what steps create a "thingy"

[theguy2763]

Idk, Just like maybe a simple drawing. But now EACH AND EVERYTHING I tween, Even if a symbol, it just turns into another symbol, How can i disable it (yet again another ask for help)?

[kglad]

if you use the rectangle tool to create a rectangle, what problem do you see, or are more steps required?

[theguy2763]

I just need help disabling automatic symbols for tweening.

i don't know what you mean, either.  if @Mario_CR's guess is incorrect copy and paste (don't attach) a screenshot showing what you mean.

I believe that the OP is lamenting the loss of this warning dialog, which pops when you try to add a Classic Tween to a keyframe which contains anything other than one symbol.

@n. tilcheff , thank you.

resetting preferences should restore that.

[theguy2763]

@theguy2763 

get in line, there are more than a few of us that claim seniority when it comes to dumb errors.

For future, reference, resetting all preferences isn't necessary to restore this dialog. Just hitting "Reset All Warning Dialogs" under General preferences is enough.

@ClayUUID, thanks for that.

for others, click edit>preferences>edit preferences>general
