Layer Not Working! Please Help Me...

[OftenGuy]

So here is this file I made. I wanted to make a transition, I'll show a comparison of inside the editor and when I test it.

[kglad]

how are you testing?

[OftenGuy]

Just by clicking "Test Movie". Sorry, this is one of my first Flash animations ever and I'm trying to get used to it...

[OftenGuy]

By the way, I'm using Adobe Animate 2023.

[OftenGuy]

It either glitches like that or the transition layer just doesn't show up on all and the screens pops to complete white.

[kglad]

upload your fla to a file server and post a link here.

[OftenGuy]

It took me a minute, me thinking I could just upload it from my Downloads but no...

[kglad]

change your sound's sync property to event.

[OftenGuy]

Oh really? I don't get that...

[OftenGuy]

It didn't work. It still delays.

[OftenGuy]

I want it to happen 2 measures before the drop of the music. But it either happens right as the drop comes, freezes the animation, or doesn't show up at all.

[OftenGuy]

And also that'll stop the sound from working every time.

[kglad]

what don't you understand?

[OftenGuy]

The file still has a problem, what I'm trying to do is get it the way it is in the editor all the time.

[kglad]

the file you uploaded skips several frames of stage animation a few seconds into timeline play.

that's fixed by my suggestion. is there another problem?

[OftenGuy · Accepted solution]

Nevermind, I got it. I just had to make the transition show on every single frame before those specific frames. Now it suddenly works every single time. Question answered. Thanks! Now I may know how to prevent this in the future...

[OftenGuy]

Now other people can finally have this issue fixed for them if they can relate.

[kglad]

i doubt you understand the problem cause and why you're solution is a work-around, but i understand your happy with that work-around.

[OftenGuy]

Me neither, it was just the last thing I tried, I tested it 3 times, and it failed none of those times. So hooray!
