[gruff28588524wlmj]

Hi, building an interactive animated pod on animate, everything been running smoothly till i made my buttons and used code for 'gotostop/play'  when i test movi e or try to publish , this pops up, any ideas ? updated animate and my laptop, no help. This is my final project in uni so time is valuable thanks.

are you using bitmaps?

[gruff28588524wlmj]

not familiair with bitmaps, what do you mean ? , i have Ai vector art in there, motion tweening, onion skin animation, tried running an older file, doesnt come up with the bitmap size issue when testing movie but also doesnt show the test movie in browser, wont let me test in animate.

[kglad · Accepted solution]

any jpg, png, gif etc?

[gruff28588524wlmj]

yes, solved that thanks ,thats what caused the bitmap problem, my issue now is when i try 'test movie' it loads to 100% but doesnt show the movie.

your browser doesn't open?

[gruff28588524wlmj]

no

[kglad]

open the html in your browser 

bookmark it

with animate open, click your bookmark

open your developer console and check for error messages 

[gruff28588524wlmj]

no error messages

is your sound attached to a timeline?

[gruff28588524wlmj]

yes, its sat on its own timeline, maybe an issue on the broswer as this wasnt a problem in the past when testing movie ? also test movie still doesnt work or when i publish

[kglad]

copy and paste here (don't attach) a screenshot of the developer console with your html loaded

[gruff28588524wlmj]

 

[kglad]

google your default browser and how to open the developer console.

my suggestion was to give you an alternative to "test movie" so you could test your movie.  use it.

[gruff28588524wlmj]

issue with html bookmark is that the work doesnt come out right, animation and audio stumbles, button coding works, not sure if its an issue on my behalf, everything fine when i exported as mp4 just to see if that worked, coding or interactive features problem ? Compile errors appeared when i exported for mp4.

upload your published files to a file server and test there (assuming you checked your developer console and found no problems)

[gruff28588524wlmj]

I did find 7 issues as seen attached, do not know how to tackle this problem. 

 

[kglad]

again, you need to open your published html in your web browser and then check the dev console

[gruff28588524wlmj]

apologies im still learning , heres the dev console on the html file.

 

[kglad]

did you click a browser bookmark to open that file?
