I need linkability on an placed edge animation

I brought in an edge animation that needs to link (on click) to a page within the site.  the animation has some interactive features that I established in Edge (and they are working fine) so I can't put a 0 opacity linking object over the top of it because I lose this interactivity. It seems strange to me that the OAM file is not a linkable object. 

Well, you basically answered your own question: Just like you cannot determine what to click when adding an overlay, so couldn't the code you add on top of it. There is simply no way to distinguish whether your click was meant to hit the invisible layer or the red ball in your Edge animation. You need to think of something else like including the links in the Edge animation or using a separate link.

  • Re: Placing Edge animations into an article in DPS

    I am trying to place an interactive info graphic — created in EDGE animate — on a page of an article in DPS. I would like the reader to be able to click on the animation graphic and have it launch full screen and then be interactive — for the reader to be able to move thru the various screens, charts and graphs. I've tried placing it as an imbedded HTML document, as an animation, etc. but I'm not having any luck. Is this possible to do and if so, how? I am a DPS Pro user, creating my articles/folios in InDesignCC on a Mac running OSX 10.9.2. I have had success placing videos, audio, slide shows, scrolling frames, etc. just not the EDGE animation. BTW the file I'm placing has an .oam extention. The interactivity works great in EDGE.  Any ideas? THX

    AFAIK, that’s not possible. When you place an OAM file you are creating a web content overlay and the frame is going to act as a view port.
    You could I suppose create an MSO and then use a full screen size Edge file that would launch as the second state when you tap a button.

  • I need help making Adobe Edge animation appear correctly on iphones, ipads and android phones.

    I need help making Adobe Edge animation appear correctly on iphones, ipads and android phones. It currently looks fine on desktops and androids. I am using wordpress with a responsive theme (Canvas). I will need you to document The url is http://adamhtc.org.s183459.gridserver.com.

    Thanks George, interesting thought.  I looked on Adobe's site and they "advertise" fillable forms for the iPhone and Android markets, but on the Windows Phone tab, that is mysteriously missing.  lol    Maybe it will come later?   Meanwhile, I'll google to see if there are any PDF viewers that can handle it now.   Thanks for the reply.  :-)

  • How to create a link with an anchor outside of the edge animation ?

    Hello
    I want to know if it's possible to create a link with an anchor that is placed outside of the edge animation , on the same page ?
    Tanks

    Is it... very likely..., javascript is javascript...Has anyone yet? Maybe i haven't looked.
    You only need 3 files... not including "Edge Includes" and "External Art Assets"
    NAME_edge.js
    NAME_edgeActions.js
    NAME_edgePreload.js
    The advantage of Edge being that u have the "power" to do whatever you like, but as with new things it takes awhile to figure it all out.

  • Edge Animation not showing up on server?

    I put my Edge animation into Dreamweaver and it was working, but when I uploaded it to the server, it wasn't showing up. I uploaded all of the Edge animate assets for the animations in the Site Root folder. What files are needed for edge animations to upload successfully when they are placed in Dreamweaver?

    I inserted the  .oam fie that I published from Edge into Dreamweaver. I got it to work finally, but the slideshow takes a long time to load or sometimes doesn't load. I've never used an iframe before, would that be a better solution?
    here is a link to my site:

  • How do I export an Edge Animation into a single folder? (no subfolders)

    I need to export an Edge Animation so that all of the javascript, html, and images are located in one folder. (no subfolders)
    Is this possible?
    Thanks

    unless you feel like hacking the exported edge code, no..
    if you do.
    open [you comp name]preloader.js in an editor look for "aloader" and remove the paths from edge.*.min.js and the jquery1-7...
    open [your comp name]-edge.js  and edit " var im='images/';  " to var im=''";
    then cut paste all your files to the sinle folder

  • Issue with multiple Edge animations in the same article. Please help!

    We have 3 edge animations in our 3 page article, one in eache page. The first edge animation you view autoplays great, however when you swipe down or up the other animations just wont play. All of them set to autoplay 0.125 with transparent background. It seems that no matter which one you see first, it kills the other two. We tried importing HTML and DPS  from Edge with the same results.
    Thank you in advance!

    I just did a quick test and experienced mixed results. I placed a single edge animation on the first page of a horizontal article, then placed the same edge animation on three pages of the vertical orientation (dual-orientation folio). The edge animation shows up perfectly on the horizontal layout, but only displays on pages 1 and 3 of the vertical orientation. It does not load on page 2.
    I also placed an additional Web Content Overlay on page two connecting to a website which loads fine. The edge animation shows the spinning/loading icon but nothing loads.
    Sorry, not much help here just sharing similar bugs.

  • Bootstrap, height of edge animation and others div content in the page- overlay issue

    I’ve a problem with the position others div tags in a page with a edge animation in the top (in the below example, div “box-animation”… export it with “publish target: Web”).
    The static content (in the below example, class “content-static”) is always overlay to the animation, instead to view it below div “box-animation”.
    The first solution is to set an height for edge animation container (for example, #box-animation height: 500px) but its very complicate to manage it with responsive website.
    So, how to view the static content in a div tag after an animation create with edge animate, to avoid overlay effect?
    This my first animation with Edge Animate and I always thought that the animation would have been placed in the html order of the webpage...
    Thanks
    Example:
    <body>
    <div id=“box-animation”><div id="Stage" class=“animation1…”>[edge animation]</div></div>
    <div class="container">
      <div class="row">
        <div class="span12">
          <div class=“content-static”><p>Test content</p></div>
        </div>
      </div>
    </div>
    </body>

    Hi... put a trasparent gif image, with the same animations's width/height, in the first div after the edge code container.
    If you want responsive layout, remember to remove width/height values.
    <body>
    <div id=“box-animation”><div id="Stage" class=“animation1…”>[edge animation]</div></div>
    <div class="container">
      <div class="row">
        <div class="span12"><img src="images/spacer.gif" alt=""/>
          <div class=“content-static”><p>Test content</p></div>
        </div>
      </div>
    </div>

  • How to integrate an Edge animation in a website by hand

    I created an Edge animation and published it as an .oam file.  But i need to work on the website on someone elses computer who does not have creative cloud or even Dreamweaver.   I am working there in a text editor. 
    What are the requirements - what do I have to do - to integrate the .oam file into that site?    All the references I've found bring in Dreamweaver to do it.   I don't have access to Dreamweaver in that environment, only to a text editor to edit the html. 
    I actually was able to publish the project as a Web site and integrated it that way without the .oam file, but I would like to know how to use the .oam file because it might be simpler.

    Hi, Ken-
    The OAM file is actually a compressed file to be used for import into another product, like Dreamweaver or InDesign.  We don't recommend you package in OAM; instead, simply ZIP up your files and hand-integrate the unpacked HTML as an iframe on your friend's machine.
    Hope that helps!

  • My edge animation is not working on Google chrome

    Hii..

    Hi Newton ,
    Can you try out one thing. We suspect this issue is caused because of the anti-scaling which we apply.
    Just try to disable anti scaling.Follow the steps below : 
    This scale factor can be changed from:
    1. Close Animate
    2. Open the preference folder:
    a. Windows: C:\Users\{username}\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Edge Animate\4.0.0\
    b. Mac: /Users/{username}/Library/Prefrences/Adobe/EdgeAnimate/4.0.0/
    3. Open the AppPrefs.xml file in a text editor.
    4. Search for the Current line in AppPrefs.xml:
    <key>SvgAntiScaleFactor</key>
    <float>10</float>
    Update this to:
    <key>SvgAntiScaleFactor</key>
    <float>1</float>
    5. Launch Animate.
    However note: This setting will work only for new animate content that you create after this setting is applied - i.e it will work only for newly pasted SVG’s in a new composition.
    Exiting Animate compositions opened after applying the setting(Step 5 above) will still show the same problem. You will need to delete the SVG and copy-paste again.
    Do let us know if this solution helps in your case too.
    Thanks and Regards,

  • Adobe muse - can't see my Edge animation in design tab!?

    I have a problem, when i have made mit edge animation, and placed it in muse, i can't see it in the design tab, but when i click the preview tab i shows, and i can also see the animation in browser!? Anyone who can help? :/

    Hi,
    Yes I've had the disappearing animation problem. It shows in preview but not in design,
    I deleted and re-inserted it. That cured it - but for how long.
    This latest update has been a disaster for me.

  • Full width edge animation

    Hi aztlanny
    Did you find a solution for this problem?

  • Full res retina iPad and Edge Animation issues

    OK So I have been building folios for the new iPad (retnia) and the only way I can get a full page animation built in edge to work is to build it on a stage that is half res (1024x768). If I build a full screen edge animation (2048x1536) it just shows a blank screen on that page on the iPad. Anyone have any tips on this? The folio is built at 2048x1536. So when i place a 1024x768 oam file I have to stretch it and use "scale to fit". Although the animation works like this it is not as pretty as the full res pages that follow. Ideas?

    Alright. So I did a bunch of testing. Good news is that text created in indesign looks identical in quality regardless of if the indesign file is 1024 or 2048 when using PDF as the folio format. Bad news is that images (i.e. placed psd files) look not as great. Definantly better than when i was trying to upscale in folio Automatic from 1024 to 2048 but not as good as a indesign file created at 2048.
    Wish there was a way to solve the image quality issue. Oh and of course all the Edge animations work like a charm using PDF and 1024. They still are not as sharp or high quality as Edge animations built at 2048 but at least they work.

  • Edge animations don't work properly in DPS.

    I've recently update CC to the latest 2014 version and since then Edge animations don't work properly in DPS (struggle to load and play). Can anyone help?

    Hi Bob,
    What real details do you need? I create a digital magazine using DPS with the occasional Edge oam file inserted to lift a couple of the openers. However recently, they either stutter on loading, don't load or crash the viewer/ipad. I test them in Content viewer.
    Thanks
