How do I make a clipping mask static?

$
0
0

I have a group of objects that move around within a 700x500 px artboard. The size of one object within this group is a map that spills over outside the artboard. I want this group to only be 400 px high, but not change anything withing the group. Just shorten the height of the clip. When I tried to just clip the height to 400 the clipping obviously followed the zooming of the animation of the group. I want the hight to be static at 400 when the animation plays.

 

Any ideas? Do I need a second clipping mask like I would have added if I worked in Illustrator? So I could move a whole group within a static clipping mask. If so, how do I create one?


Edge Animate symbol timeline goes blank...!!

Hi,

 

Anyone else have this issue? After the recent update to Edge Animate, I'm having this problem, the symbol time line goes blank and there is nothing inside the timeline, hours of work is gone just like that, it doesn't matter how many times you have saved your work. I have spend two days now on this, it was working perfect before the update. I tried re-installing Edge animate but the same thing happens, it also sometimes gives an error saying you need to save the work and restart edge animate coz an error has happened and following this error i get another error saying C+++ exception!!

 

I have no idea what is wrong with edge animate and i'm on a tight deadline. Please test your products before you release it!! Never knew the update will ruin my project!! When i open my project made from previous version it saves the project as an upgraded version, and i think this is causing the issue maybe. PLEASE HELP!

2. How do i make the symbol i am using as button so when i hover my mouse over it, the cursor changes as if i was a link?

Scroll Effects to OAM file

$

Hello everyone!

I am trying to add Scroll Effects to OAM file (in Muse project).

I did this:

Export the OAM file from Adobe Animate.

Launch Muse and double-click a page to open it in Design view. Ensure that the page is long enough to scroll by updating the minimum height settings in the Page Properties dialog box.

Choose File > Place and browse to select the OAM file from the site folder.

Open the Scroll Effects panel. Click the Adobe Edge Animate tab (fourth tab from the left) to review the settings for this section.

While the OAM file is selected, enable the Edge Animate checkbox.

Choose Autoplay 700px

Preview page in browser and my OAM animation starts playing immediately. What is wrong? I want animation to star playing after user scroll down (700px for example), but now as soon as I load the page my animation starts playing!

My Adobe Animate file has simple structure. Autoplay set to "yes". I have a stage and one element with animation (movement from one point to another in 2 seconds).

Preloader: Only works on first publish?

Ok. I have a simple animation composed of two SVG's. The SVG's are quite simple (random dots simulating a starfield). This oam file will ultimately be added to a Muse project.

 

I can successfully publish the animation.

I can add the animation to the Muse project...

Publish the Muse project

On Publish, Muse launches a browser window and viola..

I can see the preloader and Edge animation working ok on first publish...

However, if I refresh my browser, the preloader just hangs the animation...

This happens in a variety of browsers (*Our primary build out is Chrome)

 

 

Things to note:
The homepage containing the animation does also include Inserted HTML at the footer of the page. Notice the slow marching parade of accolade logos? This is separate HTML/CSS animation and outside of the Edge animation I am referring to above.

I have tried both he "Immediate" and "Polite" options on the preloader setup

The animation is not very large so my expectation at this time would be that the Preloader just blinks real quick and disappears. This would be a satisfactory result.

I have been deleting browser cache during testing

"Host runtime files on Adobe CDN" checked and unchecked; tested both... no change in outcome...

No audio has been added to the project assets; audio is not being used in this project (unfortunately; I like this feature though)

 

Links:
http://praxidicelaw.businesscatalyst.com (animation should appear on homepage with a quick preloader and then starfield)

http://praxidicelaw.businesscatalyst.com/testanim.html (a test page with nothing but the animation. No master file applied or other content)

 

 

Thanks in advance to any help/assistance...

Play animations quicker for review?

Hi,

 

I am building a digital signage system where I have a large number of animations playing one after another (in a playlist).

 

Is it possible to speed up the playlist of the animations? For example an animation could take 15 seconds to play, and before sending it to the signage players a user may want to quickly review it. Rather than waiting 15 seconds, I would like the animations to be played in say 5 seconds.

 

Thanks.

Hello!

 

Hopefully somebody will help me. Will be nice!

 

I have a object/button that is looping up and down on the x-axis.

After clicking first the button should ends his loop and then start the animation on the y-axis.

 

How is this possible in Adobe Edge?

 

Thank you very much!

accessing symbols inside of adaptive containers

$

Hello, thank you for taking the time to read my question.

 

I found one thread that discusses basically what I am trying to do, but the solutions didn't work for me and it looks like it didn't work for the original poster.  The link to this discussion is:  Re: Symbol accessible inside adaptive container?  I am using the edgecommons script to load either 'layout1080' or 'layout600' into a symbol on the main stage called 'adaptiveContainer' depending on the width of the web browser.  This all works great, and I can control the playhead from within either 'layout1080' or 'layout600' (by using getParentSymbol) but when I try to access it from a button within 'adaptiveContainer' or on the stage, I have no luck with any of the solutions I have tried. 

 

User elainfinnel had what looked to be a good solution, but after trying it I can't get it to work.  Their suggestion was:

 

In the symbol definition, add a creationComplete event and add the following line:

sym.getParentSymbol().setVariable("currentSymbol", sym);

 

Then, in your Stage, you can access the symbol by doing this:

var mySymbol = sym.getSymbol("currentSymbol");

 

You can then refer to it as a symbol:

mySymbol.play("myLabel");

 

This seemed like a great solution to the problem I am having, but I can't seem to get it to work.  When I inspect the element in firefox I can see the div class for 'adaptiveContainer' (div id="Stage_adaptiveContainer") but the div id for either 'layout1080' or 'layout600' doesn't show.  The div id displays as a number (i.e. div id="Stage_##") that is generated at some point during the script.  I am up to 53 now, and it changes every now and then.  There doesn't seem to be any sign of the div id for 'layout1080' anywhere. 

 

Thanks for reading and any help is greatly appreciated!

Nested menu symbols linked to other symbol by createChildSymbol

Hi all,

rather stuck...

So i have main stage - with a content box on it

Buttons can be clicked and they call up a symbol inside the content box using this code:

 

sym.$("content").empty();

sym.createChildSymbol("blah", "content");

 

works great - but I've got so many buttons now I needed to create a nested drop down menu - which looks great...

but now none of the menu buttons work with the code I have above - either nothing happens or bits of the menu disappear or other strange happenings!

 

I've googled all night long about linking dropdown menus to createChildSymbol but to no avail!

 

Does anyone have any suggestions?

 

Thank you

Can only websites using Dupral as a publishing tool publish Edge Animations?

$
0
0

I just heard this from a friend working with news media. I don´t know web stuff and publishing myself, but according to what he said Edge animations seems to be VERY limited when trying to get clients interested, since most can´t use the format since they don´t use Dupral. It ends up having to be screencasted, which lowers the quality from vector to more or less grainy video (huge difference) and renders interactivity useless.

 

This might be a game changer for me. If anything less than the majority of webmakers can´t publish Edge projects I can´t spend time learning this program.

 

Any takes on this would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Hello,

 

I have a little problem. I downloaded an Adobe Edge Animate program yesterday and I was trying to create something. However, how can I make something in  Adobe Edge Animate to have the background in form like in this onehttp://html.adobe.com/edge/animate/showcase/catch/catch.html.  So you can resize it and the background will be always fixed, but I always have it like this: http://html.adobe.com/edge/animate/showcase/timeline/timeline.html   So there is nothing around - just white backgrounf. Thank you.

I am missing a Trash bin or x to remove items. Now they keep on living there, causing re-imported items to be sequentially numbered, which I do not want.

Maybe I am overlooking this very basic and expected feature?

If I copy a symbol several times, will it slow down the animation?

$

Perhaps this is a dumb question.

 

I have a very simple symbol playing in my animation. It´s a little red dot that changes in size from 100% to 50% and then repeats.

 

I have copied (not duplicate from symbols pannel) this symbolt serveral times in the animation and plan to copy in loads more, maybe hundreds. Will this slow down the animation, or are all the dots working thru that first original symbol?

The system returned: (111) Connection refused

 

We are behind corporate firewall that I cannot easily change settings on, so any idea how I can get this working easily?
