Applying Motion Presets In Flash CC 2014

In previous versions of Flash i.e. CS6, when applying motion presets you could hold down Shift when you click the Apply button to have the motion preset stop at its current position. This no longer seems to be the case. Has this feature been removed, or is there a new way to do this?

Ok it is in the flyout portion of the motion presets menu. Not sure why they got rid of the hot key, and wish they would bring that back.

  • Applied motion presets don't work with page transitions.

    Hello everybody,
    I created a multipage document within InDesign. I applied some of the available motion presets. I have a really hard time making the whole document play and than loop. The final file can be either PDF (interactive) or SWF. Please help!

    Sorry, Jumped the gun. Just reversed the menu sequence and all is good.
    Thanks

  • Where can I download/buy Flash CS6 motion presets?

    I'm looking to purchase or download or find a resource for motion presets for Flash CS6.
    Although I can create most motions, I'd rather have a comprehensive library that extends the default presets that come with Flash.
    Where can I download/buy motion presets?
    Thanks.

    for tweenlite:  on the upper right is a download the appropriate (hopefully, as3) version: http://www.greensock.com/tweenlite/
    for tweenmax: on the upper right is a download the appropriate (hopefully, as3) version: http://www.greensock.com/tweenmax/
    p.s. these aren't motion presets. they are tweening classes with eases like easein, easeout, bounce, elastic etc.  those eases are also available with the standard flash tween class.

  • Can't apply Animation Presets in After Effects CC(2014)

    I'm no longer able to apply any animation presets to my type. When I try, this dialogue box appears:
    Can anyone help me with this? Thanks.

    Yes, you can apply animation presets. You just can't do it through Bridge. See this thread:

  • Flash motion presets

    I've been working with Flash CS3 for a little while, and just
    noticed that in the newest release (CS4) they have motion presets
    you can use - which I think is great! However, my employer is not
    going to upgrade me to CS4 just for that! Does anyone know if
    there's a way to use presets in CS3? Is there a site or anything
    where you can grab some free preset animations? Has this ever been
    done before CS4?
    Thanks!

    I have not seen anything for animation presets prior to CS4.
    I know in CS3 they introduced the ability to copy and paste motion,
    which is just one step down from having a preset. I believe you can
    also save motion out to XML, but that is for use in Flex projects.
    As for convincing your employer to upgrade you to CS4, there
    are more than a few options that make a CS4 upgrade not only
    tantalizing, but necessary (in my opinion), and well worth the
    cost. For starters, the ability to work in 2.5D (that means 2D
    planes in 3D space). The highly customizable object-based tween
    model (key frame-less!!). These are just a couple of the basics,
    each one independently worth the upgrade, and when you bundle them
    together, it is an upgrade that is quite irresistible.

  • 3D motion preset

    I'm curious about whether InDesign can handle 3D motion presets. I exported the "spiral-3D" preset from Flash CS5 and imported it into InDesign CS5. I applied it to an object and it didn't work. Can an object be rotated on the z-axis in InDesign? Can this be done without scripting?

    i'd recommend the o'reilly books.  there are quite a few and (disclaimer:  i'm a technical reviewer for their flash:  the missing manual) i've read several.
    however, i learned actionscript via the adobe (well, back when i started macromedia) forums and experimenting.  but i've read some of their java and ajax books, too.
    actionscript 3 has a limited future.  but then so does everything else.  actionscript 3 will probably evolve into something else in 5 to 10 years.
    but learning actionscript 3 won't be a waste.  learning object-oriented programming (like as3) is not likely to go out of style in the next 10 years.  so, what you learn with as3 oop, you can leverage with the next language you want to learn.
    and right now, the big benefit of actionscript over everything else is that it's browser independent. nothing else even comes close to browser independence.
    <rant>when i do an ajax or html5 project, i'm aggrevated that i have to do everything, at least, twice because different browsers interpret javascript/html5 differently.  that (plus everyone has the flash plug-in), is a huge benefit that flash has over all other browser/plug-in interpreted programming languages.
    the latest craze is html5 which is really a joke.  it's like working with flash from 10 years ago it's so primitive.  and you still need to use flash as backup because not all browsers can parse html5 to do the one thing it's supposed to be really good at doing:  playing video.</rant>

  • SWF header duration reduced to 2 frames after using a Motion Preset

    It seems that after you apply a Motion Preset the header of an exported SWF reports an incorrect duration of 2 frames even though its much longer. Also, after removing the elements that are related to the Motion Preset, the SWF still reports 2 frames, even though the timeline is longer.
    This has been replicated on multiple systems. I tested it by created a SWF with a main timeline of 175 frames, reading the correct duration, then adding a random motion preset and reading only 2 frames.
    I believe that the updated SWF spec shows no changes to the header. Anyone know why this happens and if there's a way to get the correct duration in the SWF file header?
    Flash CS5 on Windows 7, 64-bit

    Looks like he has fireFX instance on the timeline. Most probably this instances symbol base class is com.gskinner.effects.FireFX
    You just need to create a directory structure that reflects his package:
    com/gskinner/effects/
    where you place his FireFX.as
    Or, alternatively, you can remove package path from the class header and place FireFx where all you classes (or your application) are:
    package com.gskinner.effects {
    to
    package {
    Then you will just need to instantiate the class.

  • How can I use motion presets?

    Hi all,
    I have tried to find tutorials on how to use Flash CS5 motion presets, but could not find anything in english. Can some one please point me to any? I  type in text on the screen and while the text is selected, I pick smoke from the preset menue, and I got the following error... I even made the text into a symbol.
    The motion contained color, filter and / or 3D properties that cannot be applied to the selected objects(s). The unsupported properties were removed.
    many thanks in advance,
    HDsuperglide

    I applied the motion preset "smoke" after I added a motion tween, and I
    still get the error. In fact it doesn't put in the smoke filter, it puts in
    an upward rotation. I have retried this about 8 times so far and I get the
    same result.

  • Motion presets

    I created a motion preset of a 3D text animation that made the text swing back and forth like a gate with the hinge on the far left side.  However, when I apply the motion preset to other text, the text moves to a new location and the text swings closer to the center than the far left side.  Moving the text only creates a travel path that further complicates matters.
    What am I doing wrong with the motion preset?  How can I save something into a preset and apply it to other things and have the animation work the way it was designed? 
    Help would greatly reduce my stress and frustration.   

    i'd recommend the o'reilly books.  there are quite a few and (disclaimer:  i'm a technical reviewer for their flash:  the missing manual) i've read several.

  • Flash CC 2014 brush pressure bug

    Hi, I am using Flash CC 2014 and I have a problem with the brush. When I use the brush with pressure for tablets, it has a lag and the line doesn't appear immediately. When I use the brush with the mouse, it doesn't lag. When I turn off the pressure, the lag disappears. It happens no matter the amount of smoothing. The lag starts after a few minutes of starting Flash, and it goes away when restarting, but after a few minutes it starts to lag again. When slow drawing it does not represent a huge problem, but in fast drawing (like sketches), the lag is annoying and I can't see the drawing while making the line, only after a few seconds.
    Please help.

    Not supported? Are you kidding me?!?I
    I have a Wacom Intuos5 Touch and use a Wacom mouse with it (in addition to the standard Grip Pen). My problem is worse than the original poster. I have this problem with both my pen and my mouse. The pen is in "pen mode" and the mouse is in "mouse mode," but the problem exists in both modes for both input devices (yes, I tested my mouse in "pen mode," it's not something I'd recommend).
    I have no idea what to do about this. I work in 2D film/TV animation, and this renders Flash CC 2014 completely useless to me and my colleagues.
    These were "drawn" with a mouse in mouse mode, and a pen in pen mode. The angle and offset of the error seems to depend on the canvas zoom level, but is otherwise random-ish, changing to a random angle, keeping it for a while, then changing it again. I run a multi-monitor setup, and when I move the Flash window from the right-side monitor to the left-side monitor, the direction of the offset flops. It always points up, and toward the center of my two monitors, as if it were a application scaling problem (Windows' DPI settings have been known to cause this kind of problem with some applications, but my setup uses 100% scaling so that shouldn't apply).
    I suspected that the angle might have something to do with the rotation angle of my mouse (the Wacom tablet tracks that information), but couldn't get reliable expected behavior when I tested it out.
    This whole nonsense reminds me of an error that plagued applications built using the Qt4 framework (such as the VLC video player), which had similar "hit area" problems for Wacom devices (pen and mouse) due to an improperly implemented pen input API (it was fixed in Qt5 by dropping support altogether and treating all input devices as mouse input), but I can't imagine that's what's happening here.
    Of course, Flash is registering the initial contact point before flinging it across the screen, so it's a big mystery, and frustrating me to no end.

  • Where can I find more Motion Presets?

    I figure there's got to be a community out there that shares 'em. Anyone know where?

    I can see some links after searching in Google, Please try it.

  • Motion preset plug in?

    hello forumers.
    i was wandering if there are more motion presets that i can use than the ones that come with flash,the one they have as default are great,but id like to have a wider range if possible.
    thank you.

    I watched your tutorial. Nice.  I have a few questions though.
    How did you change the image size of your photos?  You say it is important to have them 1000 x 750
    When I hit the backslash key I only get a picture at the beginning and one at the end.
    I have been looking at your book and reading reviews.  If it is as helpful as you are I may have to purchase it. 

  • Adjusting motion presets to sound

    I have a saved motion preset that I want to use to display in a flash animation with various speakers. I have a preset motion that I want on each and I want to use on all my objects. Problem is since the voice files are of varying length, I need to adjust the animations on each, as far as when they occur etc. I am doing this the class way in the timeline, and when I adjust (by moving the keyframes towards the end) it messes up the front of the animation by moving that also.Perhaps I am doing this the hard way, by dragging keyframes, but it is causing problems. Any suggestions of a better way?  Thanks in advance,  Bruce

    I'm not sure if this is what you're doing, but it sounds like you might be stretching the span by dragging the end?  If so, then perhaps Shift+dragging the span will help (it changes the length without stretching the animation).

  • How do I apply a preset to multiple images at once?

    I'm almost embarassed to ask this, because it seems so simple. But I'm new to LR and need some help.
    I want to apply a preset (exmample, a preset that resembles film) to multiple images at once. (similar to batch editing in Photoshop) but I want want the white balance etc to necessarily be the same, obviously. Please help!

    Select all of your thumbnails in the develop module film strip or in the library prior to going into develop. Then turn on Auto-Sync. Any adjustment you make to your first image will be repeated on all of the selected images. Or just perfect your first image and choose sync. You will see a pop-up dialog and you can choose exactly which develop settings you wish to sync e.g. white balance only or white balance and other settings.
    To be clear Auto-sync will apply all develop settings on the fly to all selected images.
    Sync will apply the settings from the first selected image to all of the subsequently selected images unless you choose exceptions. For example you may wish to apply exposure, contrast, highlights and shadows from your perfected image but not the crop settings.
    Don't forget to turn off Auto-Sync when you have finished otherwise it will affect future editing.
    P.S. There is no such thing as an embarrassing question. The beginners forum is designed entirely for that purpose.
