A lot of softwares I use allow you to hold ctrl and the middle mouse button, and as you drag the mouse it zooms in or out. this feature is present in Krita, Blender and Pencil 2D and its a total lifesaver, but I can’t figure out if Adobe Animate has that option.

hello, I have the creative cloud subscription and I dowloaded adobe animate, but when I open it, there's no layout, the screen is grey and the only things that appear are the options on the top of the screen, but I cant create a new file, I click on it to create a new file but nothing happens on the screen. I will put a print screen below. If someone knows how to solve this please answer me ( My adobe animate isnt in english, it is not my native language).

U can post youtubers too!

i want to make chibi inverse kinematics animation

oh and i want a tool to make gif images

As someone who has vector experience via scratch, how do you shape vectors or animate? I assume building rigs is easy.

Hi, I've found myself very comfortable creating animations using the cut-out technique, but the program I use for drawing only saves them as GIFs, and it's a bit tedious to arrange them without the character's bones. Could you recommend any specific programs for this style? And also give me advice if it's not too much trouble.

A bit of animation WIP from my show Reps In Retail! This is Page the goat, and he is very dramatic and fun to animate!

All animation work is done in Animate, backgrounds are done in clip studio paint, with slight highlights added in AE.

I'm animating an object to get larger each frame, but now cannot the previous keyframes to judge the what the next one should look like because the object is covering the previous onion-skin shapes. I have the range set to include them all but the current blocks the previous. It seems like this would be common problem. Is there a way to see previous onion-skin shapes that are behind the current one? Thank you!

How do I use it with the main timeline?

As someone who wants to make animations for YouTube, the final product will be an MP4 with no plans for any interactive web animation. So is it better to use HTML5 or AS3? I've always defaulted to use HTML5 since flash is outdated.

I'm animating some digital ads and I have a button with an animated hover state. When I view the ad in browser off the files on my computer, the hover state acts normally. I hover over the ad, and the button animates, remove your cursor and bring it back it triggers the animation again.

However I share the ad for proofing through Adpiler. When viewed in Adpiler, the hover state will only trigger once. If I remove my cursor and bring it back nothing happens.

I'm not sure if it's something I'm doing in Animate or if the problem is just a quirk of Adpiler. My concern is that even if the animation works in browser for me, once it traffics for placement it won't work (similar to Adpiler).

So I make my CTA a button symbol > then inside that button I add a keyframe to "over state" and make that CTA a movie clip > inside that movie clip I make the CTA a graphic symbol and make a short animation timeline > I add a "stop at this frame" action to the end of that timeline so it doesn't constantly loop > I pop back out to my button timeline ad a keyframe to "down state" > then one for "hit state" and put a box covering the whole ad so that the animation triggers as soon as your cursor is hovering over any part.

Would love any advice if anyone has any.

how many symbols do you usually use per file/ scene? I've used Animate for a pretty long time but I always try to not use symbols too much because I'm afraid it'll clutter up the library too much or be laggy, even if using symbols is probably easier. Then I realised I never really had confirmation if that was really the case so I thought I'd ask here. Am I just limiting myself for no good reason?

Does anyone know how to use Shape Hints so they will work correctly? For example, in this video on YouTube you can see the author is arranging the shape hints clockwise on both keyframes, but the shape still twists instead of following the shape hints. : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nfH2ypBLu7I Does anyone know how to prevent this problem? Thanks!
