Flash vs Edge (html5)

I am a current user of Flash CS6. I wonder if my company needs to explore the transition to Adobe Edge (html5) at this time. Flash banner still widely enough accepted to continue to produce in right now? Is there a good way to convert Fla in html5?
I do free Adobe Tutorials of edge with a 30 day trial, tutorials seem kind of buggy however. Is there any best available?

I think that Adobe has made the decision for you: there are very, VERY strong reasons to think that Edge animate was discontinued. For example, the product manager of EA has been removed from the project some time ago (now works on any other product), and no one has replaced him. Any update or news, not on the edge blog animate, or anywhere else or any information relating to the environmental assessment were provided by Adobe for awhile, and the silence from Adobe is quite deafening. And the latest version is very buggy - buggy, in fact, that long-standing users advise stick to version 20141

My colleagues at work also all agree that EA is dead. And one of my colleagues is a beta-tester of EA: when I asked him last week on the current situation of animate it, he said in fact that he is unable to answer my question directly because of the NDA between him and Adobe! If that doesn't tell you something, I have no idea what's going to convince people here.

The Department in a Technical University, I teach has already fallen edge animate in his classes.

We (the instructor team) all agree that the signs point to Adobe re - focus on Flash now to integrate tech EA inside.

My advice: stick with Flash for now and wait for the news to Adobe before you start investing your time and effort in learning of an application that is developed is more if we look at all the signs and read between the lines. In the meantime, you can consider the use of Google Web Designer, Hype or NodeFire for html5 banner design. Google Web Designer offers many models, has a scenario like Edge and is free. The other two products offer similar functions.

    First of all, the title of your thread is horrible. Titles are supposed to be securities, not paragraphs.

    As for your problem, you are probably trying to call catchIdUser before it is defined. handleComplete() is raised when the content is ready to run. He did not actually yet. I guess you should have script code call the function of window parent, not the other way around.

  • Professional Flash VS Edge Animate

    Hi, I'm trying to decide between Flash professional and leading edge. I am a developer web and I try to have a single platform to develop. I know that flash can make mobile apps and web apps, but I don't know if web applications can be adapted. In the other hand is Edge animate it is a nice tool, but I don't know if I can create mobile applications with it.

    Another important information is that I'm developing with c# and MVC framework as a server technology, the decision should be based on the best integration with the latter.

    Can you guys help me with this decision or recommend me another what do you think will be better than this two mentioned before.

    Thank you

    Flash pro is more difficult to learn, but has much more capacity than edge animate.

    in general, flash pro is to motivate developers and edge is more suited to designers.

  • Close Glossary button displayed in Flash but not HTML5... when SCORMED

    Hi all

    Using Captivate v 6.1... I did a quick demo glossary which can be hidden when the user clicks the close button and opened when the user clicks on the button of the glossary. This works fine in the preview in browser (F12) and the project Preview F4. However, when you transfer to a SCORM, Flash version plays very well, but disappears close button of the HTML5 version... I can click on the place where he is and the functionality is great, but I don't see the button. I tried the Smartshape buttons and button image. Would not be a big deal, but about half of users access via mobile (IE i - Pad). I can send the file source if necessary. Thank you very much!

    Thank you

    Dan

    Shekhar,

    Thank you very much for answering. Yes, your answer works absolutely, but it's a bit ironic... most people go for a button close somewhere at the top of the opening 'widget '. However, it gave me an idea I'll transfer to another question. Thank you.

  • How can I control the size of the active output of Flash CC, when creating an animation HTML5?

    I am converting an animation Flash CC to HTML5. The flash movie contains a picture that is a 6 K transparent GIF. However, when I convert this animation in HTML5 and test it in my browser, this image file is output as a PNG 15 k.

    I had hoped that it would be just out of the 6 K transparent GIF. Instead, she's a PNG which is more than 3 times the size. Could someone tell me how I can control the size of the assets that are released when Flash CC creates an animation HTML5?

    I need very small file size for my animation HTML5, when Flash triple the size of my original images is a big problem. Thanks for any advice.

    You can use www.tinypng.com to reduce the size of your images. Should end up being a similar size to a gif file, but it can contain a true alpha, not only a key color.

    After that you posted once you can process images in order to optimize their and disabling images editing settings. In this way your optimized images won't get crushed, and editing will be faster.

    I tend to work slightly differently, especially if we often have to do some tests with files on a server. I put the optimized versions of the images in the folder images from the server, in Flash, I make a regular test film (with it not optimized image export) and if I changed or added new images, I optimize those and put them on the server. The test server will be a good indicator of performance for other people.

    A huge performance improvement is to add this line of setMaxConnections in the HTML code:

    var loader = new createjs. LoadQueue (false);
    loader.setMaxConnections (6).

    that alone can make the page load six times faster.

  • SoundJS with Flash HTML5 Canvas - break sound &amp; update the lib?

    I'm looking to do some basic audio control in the Flash timeline, exporting HTML5 canvas.

    On the frame of 10 I am loading/reading a file with:

    audio1 var is createjs. Sound.Play("Sounds/course3_mod1_2.mp3");

    Who plays, but then I can't figure out how to make a pause as the beep several frames later at a briefing of the animation to a timeline. I read that there is a method. pause() methods, as well as chassis 50 that I use:

    AUDIO1.pause ();

    This does not work for me - I must be missing something pretty obvious regarding variables references on the timeline...? In the console of Firefox, I see the JS error:

    ReferenceError: audio1 is undefined.

    If it's important, the process of publication included "0.5.2.min.js", although I do not have the latest version of CA is "0.6.0.min.js". I'm also very curious how I would update my CC Flash (version 20141) to use this latest version of the library compared with older he current attaches to the HTML code. I guess I can (in the publication settings) uncheck the option 'Hosted libraries', and then manually download new libraries and replace them in the folder. But not this crushed with each publication? And what happens if I still want a link to a hosted version the later?

    That cannot possibly work. If it worked, it is no more. The SoundJS, the documentation is very clear that "before you can play a sound, it must be saved.» You need to do something like this:

    // create global alias to main timeline for event handler
    _main = this;
    // wait for sound to preload
    this.stop();
    // assign load event handler
    createjs.Sound.on("fileload", handleLoad);
    // load and register sound
    createjs.Sound.registerSound("mysound.mp3", "soundID");
    // play sound and start timeline playing
    function handleLoad(event) {
        _main.audio1 = createjs.Sound.play("soundID");
        _main.play();
    }
    

    Then, to put in pause/resume, follow these steps:

    this.audio1.paused = true; // pause
    
    this.audio1.paused = false; // resume
    

    Reference: is there a pause() method? · Number #200 · CreateJS/SoundJS · GitHub

    Note that var creates variables that have only the scope of the framework. To the current scope of timeline, you must use this..

    If it's important, the process of publication included "0.5.2.min.js", although I do not have the latest version of CA is "0.6.0.min.js". I'm also very curious how I would update my CC Flash (version 20141) to use this latest version of the library compared with older he current attaches to the HTML code.

    DO NOT do it. Each new version of Flash CC publishes the files that target a specific version of the CreateJS library, so try to cram in a different version will certainly break things. But why you are still using Flash CC 2014? You should be able to upgrade to CC animate.

  • Export svg Edge Flash sequence?

    Hey there,

    I'm really bad at penetrate a Flash of edge as a SVG sequence frame-by-frame animation.

    I tried the Flash2SVG extension in multiple Flash versions and it does not work.

    For the moment, I am doing this...

    export Flash CS6 FXG

    import into Illustrator CS6

    Save as SVG

    Import on the edge

    which is very time consuming and sometimes sticks in positioning of elements in each frame.

    Anyone who has a solution?

    Thanks in advance.

    The latest version of Flash CC 2014 has an export option SVG, which exports the current image as SVG. There is no direct way to export all of the animation as sequence SVG, however.

    Animated border is so more on the creative cloud so how do I get my edge projects animated on the new cc program animate to work on my projects...?

    Edge animate and animate the CC are completely different software; You can not convert Edge (that drives the DOM elements) to animate (Flash, renamed/renamed) HTML5 Canvas documents.

    You can always download Edge animate to update your old projects of edge; to do this, in the Cloud creative menu, scroll down to "Find additional Apps" and click on "all Apps > view previous Versions.  Scroll down and you will see the now Adobe Edge.

  • Adobe Edge to its lively

    Hello

    We use Adobe Edge for quite awhile to develop HTML5 animations on mobile devices, and now it seems that Adobe Edge cannot be allowed today unless you have a 'All the Apps' creative Cloud of Adobe license. As it says in Adobe Edge discontinuous, merged with Animate, Dreamweaver

    "Adobe Edge animate becomes Adobe animate '.

    Adobe Edge animate will be removed and most of its functionality is integrated into the product currently known as Flash. But with this change, Adobe Flash will be renamed Adobe animate while they focus on opportunities for basic and animation more recently added the Flash export features HTML5. To try to overcome the bad reputation of the name due to security flaws in making Flash in Flash, Adobe is renaming the product in the hope that they can extend its life. "The renamed Adobe Animate will still export to the Flash file format, but Adobe is confident that interactive designers will use it to create animations of HTML5 and web ads."

    So if we buy the Adobe host CC, it covers all the previous functions of edge? Any important changes made here? The development of Adobe animate CC going Flash to HTML5?  "The renamed Adobe Animate will still export to Flash format,"... it can export to HTML that Edge? ""

    It seems so the output HTML of Animation and Adobe edge animate CC could be substantially different.

    Could not, is. Edge is based on the animation of the HTML entities. Animate CC is based on the rendering of an element of the unique canvas, using the CreateJS library. Both approaches have their own advantages and disadvantages.

  • Adobe Edge (with video) + Sizmek does not load on the first attempt in Firefox

    We tried to get a series of Adobe Edge HTML5 with video to work with Sizmek and Firefox and have had no luck.  We did a series of works autour and nothing seems to work.

    But if we do a sequence of basic Adobe Edge it works fine, but as soon as that video is attached it crashes and does not do anything (on initial load).

    We found this banner of Adobe Edge with video works with all browsers except Firefox unique.

    So far, we tried the following solution.

    What has not worked

    • Move the code of compositionReady edge of Sizmek at the head of the document.
    • Mix video load order in the file edge.js
    • Reduces the size of the video thinking it could be a weight of file problem.

    What worked

    • Deleted the video in the Edge file and have basic animation and it works very well.
    • Removed the Sizmek EB codes and it is loaded with videos, but is of no use to us because it does not respect the framework of ad Sizmek platform.
    • Re-build the banner using only the model Sizmek with greensock and works perfectly.

    Have contacted us the support of Sizmek and crossed a few developers and they said that the issue is in the ship's library and the compositionReady event is not dispatched to the first loading of Firefox.

    They have also done a few tests and think it might be a big problem with Adobe Edge and asked that contact us Adobe to find a solution.

    Can someone please point us in the right direction or other solutions of workaround to get the edge work "reliable . with Sizmek and Firefox?

    We know that we can build with just all the code, but our digital designers are not coders and need a solution to animation of timeline as opposed to a text editor. (With "Edge animate the logical progression of Adobe Flash for them")

  • I need my animation to run on Apple iOS as the iPad and the iPhone. How do I do that? Convert in HTML5

    I need my animation to run on Apple iOS as the iPad and the iPhone. How do I do that? Convert to HTML5? I have a simple animation and a simple Web Site.

    www.raybrosinc.com/index-NEW3.html (my site)

    For example, www.cat.com uses the same type of slideshow, but they will appear on iOS devices. They are different from the practice?

    I had 3 proposals:

    1. use Adobe Edge to create an HTML5/Javascript/CSS animation,

    2 use a tool to convert your Flash Animation in HTML5/Javascript/CSS,

    or 3. obtain a license to become a developer of Apple's iOS and to create an application for your site you can publish Flash using the iOS, editing tools in Flash Pro.

    I don't know enough about Adobe Edge to see if its current version SWF imports and exports HTML5/Javascript/CSS.

    The current version of Flash Pro may be able to do this conversion, but I'm not sure that either.  There may be 3rd party tools.  I haven't looked into this during some time, but I know that one of the 3 suggestions will work out for you.  Just trying to help with my limited knowledge on the subject that no one answered you.

  • questions about the uses of flash cs6 and the code that it exports VS. switch to other tools

    I looked at the overviews on the new version of flash and I did experiment a bit with muse and edge of adobe. I have also heard the announcement Friday 4.1 android devices will run is no longer the flash player. my questions are:

    1 does flash cs6 fuction basically the same design-wise, but when it comes to export the file, the code a combination of html and javascript rather than in a solid swf file as it was currently publishing my work as?

    2 East edge meant to supplement flash? or he will take some of the uses of the flash so edge can publish for flash and mobile devices will remain in the area of desktop applications?

    3. If I created full-flash sites in older versions of flash, can I import in cs6 and make them exported as functional across all devices?

    I guess that, overall, just trying to get an overview here so that I can decide how to move forward and what to focus on.

    Thank you!

    1. Yes. The Toolbox for CreateJS is an additional downloadable extension for Flash CS6. He's going to post html and js files that will provide the animation rather than the swf file that you would normally publish. The success or failure of the version of javascript from your animation is the result of the work within the Toolbox. You are a bit constrained in the use of the timeline in Flash for your animations. If you are only working in Actionscript, then the output will be very disappointing.

    2 edge outputs javascript, css and html for you give an animation. The user interface allows you to design within the limits of what can make the border. You can preview and adjust and adjust your animation work you. Edge is a tool of html5. It can create some animation html5. It is not a replacement for Flash. It's something that you can use to integrate the animation in html instead of Flash.

    The problems and the benefits of each are unique. It is a good substitute to learn javascript, css and HTML 5. If you don't understand the code that is created from each of these tools, you can easily end up with huge, inflated, files which improved. I'm very biased towards really knowing what is happening. If I need to change something, I want to be able to enter the code and make a change, do not add an extra piece of code to work around what was there. I don't use any of the timeline, and so nothing of what I publish using CreateJS. Well, he's going to publish, but nothing happens because there is nothing on the timeline to translate.

    You can download a trial version of Flash CS6 and try to box at tools for yourself. Edge is still in free preview, you can get a copy to http://labs.adobe.com and try to see how it works.

    Also, if you do not use the Greensock Animation with Flash platform, take a look at this. It has recently been extended to ensure similar Javascript for most libraries. http://www.greensock.com/

  • YouTube and WebMs are weird when trying to play automatically (details inside), but using Flash to load videos on websites like DailyMotion works very well.

    It started a few days ago, possibly coinciding with the update to 41.0.1.

    If I upload a video on Youtube, or load a WebM, the video shows that it is set to 'play', as it is supposed to and it loads as usual, but does not in fact, time just 0:00. If I pause and re-activate it or move the timer, he plays as usual. Also, if I load a Youtube video from a referral link on the page of a video that I've played, this happens. This does not happen on sites like DailyMotion who only use Flash instead of HTML5.

    Is there a solution for this? Even if I had to force Youtube to play with Flash instead of HTML5, it won't fix problems with WebMs.
