I'm running into a problem with my symbols, they seem to be going out of sync in my animation. I'm using multiple instances of the same symbol. See below link for the .html file for example of what I mean. The wings go out of sync after awhile, even though they're the same symbol.

I followed the adobe tutorial to manually create an html page in order to have two edge animations on a page but it doesn't work well. The second animation starts but not the first one (I can see the first frame only).
View 1 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to "eval" or dynamically set a symbol name that has been parsed from XML to build a symbol path? For example, I'm trying to dynamically set a variable to the path of a sysmbol already on the stage, but it's not working correctly:
var xmlSymName = $('symName', this).text(); // where symName = "sym4" from a parsed XML node
var whatPOI = sym.getComposition().getStage().getSymbol("sym1").getSymbol("sym2").getSymbol("sym3").getSymbol(xmlSymName).getSymbolElement();
Basically I have a lot of points on a map and I'd like to be able to name the points along with other data like tooltip callouts, etc populated via XML then loop through the XML to build the points of interest on the map. If I can get the above working I can place that variable path reference into an array and grab the data from it later. But the path is not working the way I have it.
Can I call a symbol from the symbol panel and place it on the stage?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've just updated my development iPad and xcode to ios7 and xcode 5.
The app i´m developing uses web views to display content – which includes images and edge animations –embedded in one HTML-file using iscroll.js to swipe through (one page could be an image, the next a Edge Animation,separated in <li>-elements).
The Edge-Animations won´t show up, its just a blank page. However the iOS-Simulator shows everything correctly but on the iPad the Animations just won´t show.
Microsoft says Adobe products are not up to date with modern browsers.
View 18 Replies View RelatedI am trying to get an animation where the user hovers over one of 13 stars on string. What I am after is when they hover over one it looks like its been knocked and starts to swing for a shot amount of time.This should happen to them all. I have this code but it doesnt want to play!
Mouse Leave:
$(this.lookupSelector("star-1")).playReverse();
Mouse Enter:
$(this.lookupSelector("star-1")).play(0);
When you add more and more stars it just stops working.

View 23 Replies View RelatedI have embedded multiple edge animations into iBooks and DPS. Howeve I keep running into an issue where one or more animations will not start after i have started another then move on to a different page. When i reload the book or adobe viewer then the animation that would not start runs fine but then others won't run. Individually they all run fine but when embedded together they start stalling out. I'm using edge 1.0 and CS6 indesign and lateset iBooks author. I have a published iBook and I have to tell users to reload ibooks in order to get each animation to run. They are not complex animations.
View 10 Replies View RelatedI‘m trying to have a simple (slide and zoom) ken burns like full page EDGE animation in our DPS folio.
The animation works like charme in the browser preview on my mac and is running smoothly without any issues. Only when I place the OAM in Indesign and preview it on the iPad (3) the animation plays back chunky. Well not exactely chunky, but it always stops once in the middle. Sometimes just for a brief moment, sometimes like up to nerly a second. It also happens when I test the HTML in mSafari. Not as bad, but definitvely also noticably.
Since I‘m fairly new to EDGE I don‘t really have a clou where to start optimising. It‘s a real simple animation (just one image moving and slightly zooming with some easing in and out, and one text element fading in) and the resulting oam is just about 790k.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI created this website for a client and it can be viewed at Uscantravel.com. However being in the SEO phase of the site, the publish for Static HTML to make the website search friendly turns off the animated pop-ups and links that are layered within symbols with additional animations. It works fine when I save the .html file and upload that, but the published file for static alters the website animations when uploaded.
Can I somehow use the copy and paste the Div tags into the workable .html file to make search friendly, or am I missing something?
What is the syntax for retrieving the name of the symbol that has been clicked on?
$sym.symbolName
$sym.name
$sym.getAttribute("name");
e.target.name
e.target.symbolName
I can get e.target.id fine, but it's a mixture of Edge generated identifiers and my symbol name.
I have some codes like this:
function myFunc(name) {
var $symbol = sym.$(name);
//I want to do something with $symbol depending on their id, for example
//$item.appendTo($symbol);
//so $item will append to the corresponding symbol
}
[Code]...
I tried .attr('id') and it seems not the id I want.
EDIT: indeed I want to get the selector inside myFunc
In my Composition there some cases I have to play one symbol. In a few cases it is necessary two play sequential e.g. symbol A an then symbol B. It have to look like one animation. Is there an easy way of calling?
View 19 Replies View RelatedI start with several items on the stage, each an iteration of the same symbol. When I click on one, it performs an opening animation, then pauses. When I click on another, the first symbol un-pauses on its timeline, animating back to original position, while the second one I clicked plays its opening animation till its pause. Each of the symbols can tell the already deployed symbol to "play itself off."I'm sure this was done in Flash all the time, and there's a Javascript solution.
View 3 Replies View RelatedHow to create two instances of the same symbol and change the texts and images inside the instances to have different texts (so I mean different from the other instance)?
Somehow, instead of using dynamic creation by using code, I can't manage this. Everytime I change a text inside A (instance of symbol1), the text of B (instance of the same symbol1) is also changed. The same with images. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong here. I can't imagine symbols are always reference types, 'cause what's the meaning of having symbols then?
I have a symbol called "A." I needed 2 copies of it, so I duplicated A and renamed the new symbol to B. I now have A and B, identical copies of each other.
I navigated inside symbol A where I entered another symbol, "A1." Inside A > A1, I removed an image and added another image. No problem so far.
Then, I returned to the stage and navigated into symbol B > B1. To my surprise, the same image change I made in A > A1 already appeared in B > B1 (even though I duplicated A **before** making this change).
When I change the image inside B > B1, that same change is now present back in A > A1.
It's as if these two symbols, A and B, are mirrors of each other, even after being modified. Trouble is, I don't want mirrors. I need them to be slightly different.
I thought the Duplicate step might be my problem. I started over (both by undoing several steps and by closing and creating a new document entirely). This time, I copied A and pasted it onto the stage. I ran into the same problems.
Ok, next guess: this time, I entered symbol A and copied its elements/sub-symbols. I went back to the stage and pasted them there. Selected these elements/symbols and converted to a new symbol. Same problem!
how to apply CSS all elements of a symbol?
For example, I want to put a border around every image in a certain symbol.
I want to create on the symbol an mouse over event that address the same symbol.
i've tried
this.css("display","none");
with no success..
It is possible take action label before?
example:
Stage01, label 'home'.
Symbol01, click on Retangle01 action: Play ('home') in Stage01.
When I try to add a click event on a symbol, I can't access to the symbol, only to the parent. For example, if on the event click on a specific symbol A I add the code
var symbolElement = sym.getSymbolElement();
symbolElement.hide();
It will hide the parent of A, instead of hiding A. How do I access to A?

View 15 Replies View RelatedI need to hide a symbol on my main stage dynamically, ie without hardcoding it on the timeline. So I tried this within an IF ELSE statement:

Clearly these are not working..
