Problem with Asset Warp Tool always making graphics disappear

[liang23544232nqbx]

I've checked some of the threads on resource management tools, but can't seem to find anyone with version 23.0 experiencing this problem, so posting a new thread to find an answer.

I use the Asset Warp Tool to animate some graphics. I create three keyframes, animate a twisting loop (usually modifying the middle keyframe), and save it as a graphic element. But when I use the Quick Copy function to copy a new graphic element, I find that the Resource Morphing Tool animation in the new graphic element gets corrupted. See Figure 1, even the original graphic will be destroyed and the first frame will simply disappear.

Just to make sure, is it really version 23.0.0? Can you check by going to Help > About Animate?

If you're copying frames the correct shortcut is Ctrl + Alt + C to copy and Ctrl + Alt + V to paste.

Yes, I'm pretty sure I'm using adobe animate version 23.0, I'm not trying to copy the same component, but I want to create a new component that can be edited without affecting the copied component by right clicking on the "Direct Copy Component". When I do not do this, it destroys 100% of the distortion animation in the original component that was created with the resource deformation tool.

In that case, please update your version. The latest release as of today is 22.0.2. There's been a few bug fixes dealing with disappearing assets when using the tool: https://helpx.adobe.com/animate/kb/fixed-issues.html

Thanks for the reply, I'll try it right away.

I've installed the latest version 23.02, and I see in the latest fixbug messsion,that there is updated information about fixing the symbol losing the warp animation, but this is a bug where generating a new element with direct copy loses the warp animation and may not have been fixed.

Ah ok I see the problem now, we have a small language barrier going on here.

I wasn't understanding what you meant by "Component" and "Direct Copy", it seems that the terminology changes a little between the chinese and english versions of the program and simply translating these terms doesn't quite work.

So if I get this right:

Component = Symbol

Direct Copy = Duplicate

Yes, duplicating a symbol with a warped asset inside will break the animation if modified in any way. This is a bug for sure and it's easily reproducible. I will make a bug report to the dev team.

Here's a workaround you can try in the meantime:

After duplicating the Symbol, convert the tween from the original into keyframes, then modify the duplicated symbol. The warped asset animation shouldn't break in the original symbol anymore.

Here's a quick video demonstration, hope it's clear enough:

Did anyone find solution? Whenever I use Warp tool on a vector and animate it in Adobe Animate 23.0 . After sometimes it disappears or glitches. Even I changed the names of bitmaps still it is not working. And yes I have also unticked the edit>>preferences>>  auto convert vector to bitmap.

修改he edit>>preferences>>  auto convert vector to bitmap. 对解决这个问题没有帮助，它只是牺牲了矢量图形的优势，给与了更好的性能
