Hello Adobe Edge Animate Forum,
FIRST, I am requesting that an Adobe Edge Animate programmer please take a look at this discussion.
I really love the program, and it's promise for what it does. I am spending countless hours in it, creating
a more media rich version of http://www.pazzaria.com
I am getting frequent errors, hang ups, and parts of the program that just don't want to work.
Attached, you will se the specs of my computer. My HD is a 250 GB SSD.
I have been in digital media, and, thusly, have been using your programs for over twenty years.
I wish that Adobe Edge Animate had an option for me to increase/decrease the amount of RAM allocated.
My issues:
1) Attached, you will find an error message that comes up, when I start up the program. Now, of course,
it's b.s., because I just OK, and I can use the program.
2) Often, when I try and rename either a group, or a file in the Elements menu, or the Timeline, I can't.
I highlight the file, type in the new name, and it just reverts back to the old name. Very, very frustrating.
3) This is a new one, as of today. I tried to resize one of my graphics, and the handles didn't show up.
The rotate symbol came up, and I accidentally tried to resize it, but ended up rotating it. No worries.
I just command z-d it.
4) Often, smart guides just come on when they want to.
I have trashed not only the Edge Animate preferences countless times, but, also, one time, I trashed
all the preferences on my machine, thinking that that would help. It has not.
I also repaired disk permissions on my hard drive several times. No luck.
I have also trashed, and resisted the program about three times.
Every time I do any of the few fixes above, I also restart my machine.
The bottom line is, this program should really still be in beta. It needs a lot of work under the hood, still.
It's a lot of little things, that, at the end of the day, just add up to delays on the project, and are frustrating.
The problem is not with the file, because I have experienced similar errors in another file.
I know that you just through with a whole round of updates, for this. In my experience, it didn't
fix a lot of stuff.
Is the fact that I have an SSD an issue? I hope that you have tested the program on a wide variety of
machines.
Please advise, as I am a paying CC member.
I would really like Adobe Edge Animate to be as smooth as your other programs, in terms of functionality.
Adobe is better than this!
:-)
Thanks!
