You should have been opening the developer console in Chrome to see if there are any error messages. Go into your publish settings and disable spritesheets, if it's still enabled.

This has nothing to do with export settings. It's basic JavaScript syntax. If you have a movieclip on the stage with its instance named "bob", these are all functionally identical: this.bob.visible = false; this["bob"]["visible"] = false; this["bob"].visible = false; this.bob["visible"] = false; var bobRef = this.bob; bobRef.visible = false; var bobName = "bob"; this[bobName].visible = false;

Stuff like "self.symbol" is never going to work because that's just sticking self's name into a string, not its value. The correct way to reference object names by a variable is to use bracket notation instead of dot notation. Property accessors - JavaScript | MDN So you'd do something like: self.curSlide = self["symbol" + slideNum]; Which if slideNum was 9001 would be equivalent to: self.curSlide = self.symbol9001;

Also, if you only want an event handler to execute once, there are a couple of easier ways to do it. Using the on method to assign your event listener allows passing a flag that specifies it only fires once: this.on("tick", load, this, true); var i = 100; function load() { console.log(this); console.log(i); } Or you can use the event object remove() method in the handler: this.addEventListener("tick", load); var i = 100; function load(evt) { evt.remove(); console.log(this); console.log(i); }

A more correct thread title would be "Canvas removeEventListener doesn't work for bind". Your problem is that removeEventListener() requires the same function reference as passed to addEventListener() to succeed in removing the listener. But bind() returns a different function reference every time it's used. That's why your code doesn't work. Of course, the reason bind() is needed at all is because by default event handlers execute in the browser window (global) context instead of the context of the object that triggered it. There are two ways to work around this: First way, store a global reference to your "this" so the function can access it. loadThis = this; // global this.addEventListener("tick", load); var i = 100; function load() { loadThis.removeEventListener("tick", load); console.log(this); console.log(i); } Second way, store a reference to the bound event handler function so it can be removed. var loadHandler = load.bind(this); // bound event handler this.addEventListener("tick", loadHandler); var i = 100; function load() { this.removeEventListener("tick", loadHandler); console.log(this); console.log(i); } At this point you should be wondering how both versions are able to access the value of i even though they execute in different contexts. That's because, while the first example executes in window context, the function still has access to local scope. Context is the current value of "this", while scope is how JavaScript resolves variables. JavaScript uses lexical (aka "static") scoping, so a function always has access to its parent, etc. variables no matter what context it's executing in. This article does a far more thorough job explaining all this: Understanding Scope and Context in JavaScript | Ryan Morr

Yup. Though you don't need to prefix a variable with anything to make it global. The only real advantage of doing so would be to make it explicit that the variable is intended to be global. I suppose there could also be scope issues if functions are using the same variable names as ones in the global scope, but that would be bad practice, to be avoided in the first place. Also, to the original poster, there's no such thing as an "HTML5 Variable". The scripting language in Canvas documents is JavaScript. They're JavaScript variables.

Canvas mode can only do (in realtime) the transformations that the HTML canvas element natively supports. Transformations - Web APIs | MDN Even if you find a native transform that works for you, it's somewhat of a pain to use in Animate because you have to manually copy part of the stage to an offscreen canvas, transform it, then paste it back onto the main canvas. EDIT: To clarify, you can perform basic skewing via Animate's Transform window. But anything more complicated than what the UI allows will require the aforementioned coding.

1) You can't layer anything on the canvas on top of a component. 2) Banner ads that play video are the cancer of the internet. They suck bandwidth and slow pages to a crawl. This is exactly why so many people install ad blockers.

setFPS() is just a convenience function for setting the ticker's interval property. All it does is: Ticker.setInterval(1000/value); So if you try setFPS(0) it does 1000 divided by zero, which evaluates as Infinity. This is not a legal value for intervals. Now, what you can do is setInterval(9007199254740991). This is the maximum integer in Javascript (2^53 - 1). In fully ES6-compliant browsers this value can be referenced as Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER, but Internet Explorer doesn't support it, so you have to use the literal. Or you could do Math.pow(2, 53). In any case, while this won't technically stop the timeline from advancing, it will slow it down to a rate of one frame every 285.6 millenia. This should be sufficient for your needs.
