I have a simple animated symbol on my main stage timeline. This symbol also has a timeline of course.
Now, I have put a simple stop event on that timeline and it just does not work !
I can stop and start the symbol timeline from the main stage but not make it stop under its own event .
Any ideas before i toss everything out of the window ?
Hello fellow creationists. LOL i mean in the artistic sense
I created parallax banner by following this quick simple tutorial located here: Creating a Parallax Effect in Edge Animate - YouTube
I noticed that it was creating an unattractive snap to x pos when you exited or entered the banner
So in mouseout i created a simple solution by adding: sym.play('posX'); which just means it plays to the end from the last x mouse position.
My problem now is when you enter the banner again it creates a snapping effect, So if its at 10 (the end) and the mouse goes onto the left side of the banner the animation will "snap" to the beginning position.
Anybody know how I can ease this? Like make it ease into that spot first and stop the snap effect? it ruins the parallax but edge animate is my only solution because of my limited knowledge in JS
Would appreciate any help! Refer to short tutorial i linked to, to understand what im talking about. Let me know if u want my current files to help.
Hello again,
Following my streak of silly questions, I have yet another one. I tried asking on StackOverflow but the answer was unsuccessful. Basically I have a time function on the .compositionReady that triggers the timeline at specific time during the day. This timeline displays an animation and a dialogue with two buttons. One button (snooze_btn_sy) is supposed to "snooze" this dialogue and call the timeline again 10 minutes later (I have 4000 ms in the code just to test it). This is the code:
.compositionReady:
function snooze() { sym.play(1000); sym.snooze() = setTimeout(snooze(), 4000);
}
function updateClock() {
var d = new Date(); // current date var m = d.getMinutes(); var h = d.getHours(); console.log(h,":",m); // call this function again in 1000ms sym.updateClock = setTimeout(updateClock,1000); if(h== 9 && m== 45) { //at 9hrs 00 min
//run the dialogue for the morning pause
sym.play(1000);
} else { sym.stop(1000); }
}
updateClock(); // initial call
snooze_btn_sy.click:
sym.play(); snooze();
I got the other button to play another animation with just sym.play(); but the snooze button just won't do anything. I created a public function as you can see, and I call it in the snooze_btn_sy.click code.
Any ideas?
Thank you!
Hi,
I have an .oam file placed in a window but i=the animation plays before the user gets to the correct page, and i want it to play once the viewer gets to the page, how do i do this?
thanks!
Hi there,
I placed text into an circle. In Edge preview all appears perfectly. But when I uploade the oam file, the line spacing and the font size has changed. Therefore it wont fit into the circle.
To fix this, I converted in illustrator the text into vector graphic and placed it in Edge. With Edge preview all appear perfectly. But when I upload the oam the text in the inner circle is pixelated. It is kind of strang because the text in the outer circle (eg. Major surgical complications) is also a pasted vector graphic. In Google Chrome everything look quite good but in Safari looks like it is pixelated.
What can I do to solve the issue?
Here is the link to to graphic: ichom - mind-made
I have an audio file with various sound effects that I want use as an audio sprite in my edge project. I have no problem with normal audio playback but cannot get edge to play back the audio sprite at particular time periods.
I have converted the audio to a symbol and put labels on the timeline. Does anyone know how to trigger those specific points in code and then pause the audio after a certain time.
I have tried things along the lines of :
sym.getSymbol('audioSprite').play(0); which plays the whole audio file
sym.getSymbol('audioSprite').play('mylabel'); which does not play anything.
There is very limited information anywhere on the Internet. Please help :-)
Hello I have a problem with video's in Edge.
The video in the Edge project is keeping downloading when published.
What is the problem?

I had the beta version of Adobe Edge Animate, and when it was released I was able to download version 1.0 for free, and it is still installed on my computer today.
The problem is I might get a new computer, and I'm just wondering if my old projects that I made with that version of Adobe Edge will work correctly if I purchase Edge Animate CC?
Does Edge Animate CC support backwards compatibility all the way back to 1.0?
Hello folks, I'm hoping for some guidance on a complicated graphic. My org. has an existing interactive map which was created by a freelancer for us using Ruby and js. It's very nice but I wanted to see if it's possible to recreate using Edge Animate (both as a challenge to myself and as a way of being able to move ownership of it in-house). Here's the map:
I have done a fair amount of work in Edge Animate but have mostly stuck with simple interactivity (play, repeat, navigation links, etc.) so this would be a stretch. But I'm thinking that the map itself (with various shadings) could be recreated using Edge Commons' Interactive SVG function. I would create the map in Illustrator as an svg with different layers for each group of states, which would then be activated by the buttons in Edge Animate. (The floating box could be done entirely in Animate.)
So my questions are,
- Does this seem doable, and has anyone done something similar?
- How do I trigger the layer visibility toggle from Edge? There's a tutorial from Edge Commons which changes the color of an object by CSS, but it seems like it would be simpler to use layer visibility.
- Some of the combinations of checkboxes result in States that are in multiple groups (resulting in a striped fill). I'm guessing I'd need to add some code to indicate that if buttons X and Y were both checked, a third combined layer would be shown. (A further complication is that each of the groups of buttons shuts off the other groups.)
Alternately, it seems like I could also create each state as a series of differently-colored graphics which are then shown or hidden based on which buttons are checked (using arrays, maybe?), but that seems a messier due to the million separate images.
Anyway, how would you approach this problem, I guess is my main question.
Thanks very much.
Is there a way to save a file I created in edge animate as a gif?

My page has multiple animations that I have spent days designing, and now my developer is telling me we can only use one.
Is this seriously true? A lack of detail on this issue will surely drive me to use another product like Hype or Google...

Hello all.
I ve been working arround a problem i ve when i try to insert my animation into a slider in wordpress. The problem is that the animation start allways when the page loads the iframe that contains it , and i need that it starts when that iframe is visible (visibility:visible). Is it possible?
I figure that it should be a simple function on stage-creationComplete, but i really dont know how to do (i am not bad at design, but my programming skills are terrible).
Thanks!

Has anyone successfully done this? I've tried doing so with FlexSlider, but it won't show up inside (works outside the slider). Has anyone used a JQuery type carousel plug in and integrated an Edge animation?
Second part to this question is that if you have done so, is there a way to delay the Edge play action until the stage slides into view?
i'm having this problem where the animation pauses whenever i go to another tab from a web browser but the audio keeps on playing..
so whenever i go back, the audio and animation are not in sync. any solution for this problem?
thank you!

Hello everyone i am making an epub with an animated logo i was wondering if anyone has done this so far i have gotten the text section of the logo to work but the jpg simply doesn't appear... any suggestions
I did two compositions, and I am trying to remove files that I don't need. Every time I remove the files I don't need from the folder they are in (specifically the media folder), I preview in browser, but it does not work. What is the fix, if there is one?
