Import png sequence and scrub through

Hi all,
Can edge animate do something like this?
Click on the 3D model and it will spin with mouse control
http://visualscience.ru/en/projects/hiv/3d-model/
So its a collection of images that when played, represent a spinning 3D object. Scrub right and the timeline plays, scrub left and the time line rewinds - and it will scrub in either direction forever.
I have done something like this in flash, but wondered if edge can do this too?
Thank you

You could easily achieve this 3D rotation effect using Sprite Sheets.
The best way to create sprite sheets for Edge Animate is Adobe Flash CC 2014.
Since you have 100+ images, you need multiple sprite sheets each having a max dimention of 1K x 1K pixels. (For making it mobile friendly)
Each sprite sheet needs to be imported as a separate symbol in Animate. These symbols needs to be instantiated one after another in the stage.
How import a PNG sequence as a symbol in Animate
Using Flash,  create a symbol out of your PNG sequence -> Refer this
Using Flash, export the symbol as a sprite sheet -> Refer this
Using Animate , import the sprite sheet  ( created by flash) as a symbol -> Refer this

  • Help importing PNG sequence

    So I believe I have successfully accomplished importing PNG
    sequences before more than once. However, this time around, I'm
    losing my mind. I just successfully rendered a PNG sequence out of
    Adobe After Effects CS3, roughly 130 images, and I'm attempting to
    import all of them as a sequence to FlashCS3. However, when I do
    this, every image is duplicated with a graphic, and the graphics
    are about 50x larger than the original PNG size. I cannot figure
    out what I am doing wrong, I've never come across this problem. If
    anyone has any advice, please let me know; it will be greatly
    appreciated.
    I also wanted to know how to move the position of images or
    movie clips on multiple key frames at one time. If that makes
    sense. As this PNG sequence for example.... If I don't like the
    position of the sequence, I have to manually click each key frame,
    and move the selected position... any help.

    your first problem here is likely that the images you've
    rendered are not set to 72dpi, standard screen resolution. Flash
    will automatically render the image at a size related to 72, eg. if
    your images are higher res they will be shown larger to compensate.
    the second issue can be resolved by using the 'edit multiple
    frames' button and selecting all items in the timeline you wish to
    move, including multiple layers and frames. to do so, turn on
    'onion skinning' place the playhead in the first frame you wish to
    move, extend the handle to the last frame you wish to move - then
    turn on the edit multiple frames button (third option in the
    timeline toolbar) - then select all of the layers and frames you
    wish to move in the timeline - now all the items on the stage
    should be shown as selected, you can now click and drag the items
    all together or use the arrow keys to nudge the images to a new
    position.

  • Importing a sequence and images only being 1 frame

    Is there a way to import a sequence and when the images go to the timeline they are only 1 frame long?

  • Issues importing PNG sequences

    Hey all,
    Using Flash CS3, I'm having an issue when importing a png

    most likely it's a resolution thing. Flash only get 72dpi so
    images
    in higher resolution might be scaled to redo the size maths.

  • Importing PNG sequence from After Effects (or anywhere)

    From some reason when I'm importing a PNG sequence onto stage, it's loading all of the PNGs into one frame instead of distributing them into their own keyframes like it's supposed to.
    I've seen this problem posted before. Anybody have a solution for this?
    I've also seen that people have posted that Flash CS3 HATES After Effects PNGs....how bizarre....I'm starting to figure that out.
    Any solutions?

    Well now it's working. Hmmmm.Thanks Jim.
    Well, there's something you can do that accidently stacks them into one frame.....I guess I get one brain-fart per month....and I just used my quota.

  • Transparency/Alpha Great Mystery (IMPORTED PNG Sequence)

    Ok, this one is going to fall under the "I would LOVE to get an explanation of this one!" category. Just when I thought I knew everything about transparency and alpha channels, etc ...
    The problem: I am importing a PNG sequence into After Effects (CS 5.5), however AE refuses to see the Alpha channel contained within the sequence. Now before anyone jumps the gun and says, "But wait, PNG does not really support alpha, it just supports transparency!" Right, something I just learned, and still -- quite honestly -- baffles the heck out of me.
    But anyway, another PNG sequence exported from the exact same program, imports into After Effects just fine with an "alpha channel" and all. I double-checked, and there is NOT an option in the program to export the PNG without transparency info.
    Importing sample images from each sequence reveals the EXACT SAME THING ... both have transparency, but NEITHER have an alpha-channel per se.
    Sooo ...
    1) ANY idea why in the heck AE would interpret one's transparency, and not the other?
    2) Is there a way to FORCE AE to see the transparency of the one?
    3) IF not, is there something out there that will convert the PNG's with transparency to another format (TIF, TGA, PSD) with an alpha? I just don't want to have to re-render the sequences again.
    ANY insight into this bizarre-ness would be GREATLY appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Tim

    Ok another follow-up with interesting results ...
    1) The second sequence I have that I tried to batch in PS, did not turn out correctly.  Investinging with a single frame inside PS revealed that it was not simply adding a selection to the "solid" parts, but actually sections within the solid parts.  (To make it clearer, the animation is a zoom out from an open 3D book.  Instead of making a selection of the book, it selected the book, and then various things contained on the book.  Not sure where it was getting this selection from.
    2) In AE, I simply moved those frames in the beginning where there would not be an alpha channel (or need of one) because the book is filling the entire frame.  I then imported the remaining frames and it saw the alpha channel with no problem. I then just added the starting frames as a seperate sequence to the begininnig of the timeline, and wallla ... problem solved.
    So I can only surmise that the 3D app did not -- oddly enough) output any alpha/transparency info for those first 60-or-so frames where the book filled the entire frame.  Thus, AE -- looking at the first frame with no alpha info -- rightfully concluded that there wasn't any, and igores the transparency info.
    The other PNG sequences did not start with object(s) filling the entire frame, so alpha info was written to the first frame for those.  I can test this theory pretty easily.  I could probably, now that I think about it, even just have created a frame 0000 with some alpha info, and then it would have worked (possibly.)

  • Import Image Sequence and Alpha Channel Transparency?

    Hello --
    I need to go from PNG sequence (with alpha channel transparency) to FLV (with alpha retained), and am trying to do this in QuickTime Pro. Seems like this should be possible.
    When I import a sequence of PNG images into QuickTime Pro, the alpha channel displays as solid black. When I export the movie as FLV (using On2 VP6 Codec, which supports alpha transparency), there is still a solid black background, and no transparency. I have looked everywhere in QT Pro for transparency settings, but to no avail. Any tips would be hugely appreciated. Thanks in advance!
    Mike

    Thanks, but something is not working.
    Going back to your original post, when I do Cmd-J, then set transparency to "Straight Alpha," the movie background immediately changes from black to white. So far so good. But if I export that movie as MOV (Animation, no compression, millions of colors+), then bring it back in, and confirm with Cmd-J, the transparency setting is gone. Am I missing something?

  • PNG sequences and .OAMs

    I'm working on a digital magazine and my client wanted me to add some complex animations to some of the pages. Since I don't dominate Edge Animate I figured I could make the Animations in After Effects and then import the render into Edge. I read in another forum this was possible using Fireworks and Png Sequences, but it gives no information as to how to import the Sequence into fireworks in the first place which I have been unable to do so far. So my first question is, is there a way to import a render made from AE into Edge? I have no problem rendering the animations again as they are not that long.
    Secondly, I'm using edge to make animations that I'm exporting as OAMs to import into the InDesign Folio. So if I can't Import the render into Edge, is the a way I can import it directly into IDD? Keep in mind these animations take over the whole screen anyways so It's not a problem if they aren't interactive, so long as they play as soon as the page opens.
    Thanks a lot!

    Well, yes you will have to import your images in fireworks. Just start a new animation in fireworks. Choose png animation. Copy paste your layers or files into a different state for each one and when you are done, use the command export to Edge Animate. It works perfect. It will make a symbol that you will be able to import in Animate. This symbol just adds the display on/off for your png files.
    You can also do this manually as explained in another post.

  • Import PNG sequence in to Photoshop, ignoring transparency?

    I've been able to ignore the transparency in PNG images when needed by using "Layer>Layer mask>From Transparency" and then deleting the mask created.
    However, importing an image sequence as a Timeline, this option is not available. What should I do instead? (Other than using After Effects to re-output my image sequence without transparency)
    Any suggestions gratefully received!

    Worst case, I guess, one could always strip the transparency from the Layers with a Script.

  • Problems importing PNG Sequences as Footage

    Using AfterEffects CS6 with the latest patch (11.0.1).. We have several PNG frame sequences (output from 3dsMax & Mental Ray) that we usually load into AfterEffects for manipulation and rendering.  With the files on our network share, we are unable to import them as sequences (the options at the bottom of the Open File dialog are all greyed out).  We can open individual frames just fine, and we can open these sequences as Some users, but not all.  All users have all permissions to the files and folders.
    Is there some additional hidden file or special attribute that CS6 is keying on to enable/disable that open?

    Ok.. we figured it out..
    It only works if "Hide extensions for known file types" is checked... IF we can see file extensions, it doesn't work.

  • While playing music on my iphone 5, i am now unable to play, pause, or skip songs while my phone is locked. I can still change the volume and slide the scrub through songs.  This has always worked for me until now. I have not changed any settings

    While playing music on my iphone 5, i am now unable to play, pause, or skip songs while my phone is locked. I can still change the volume and scrub through songs.  This has always worked for me until now. As far as i know, i have not changed any settings.  This is whle my phone is locked both on the slide up toolbar/menu interface and on the normal screen before i slide to unlock.

    I skimmed through this very long post but from what I read, this sounds much more like a coverage issue with your network than a device issue.  I have not seen or heard of this issue before and I do not have this issue personnally and & I use the music app quite frequently while working in the yard.
    The DND feature should not be a factor at all if you're sure it's turned off.  I always recommend restarting your phone by holding down the home button + the lock button for 10-12 seconds until the Apple logo appears.  Once the phone reboots, do a test to see if this has helped to resolve the issue.
    If not, go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.  Then, test it out again.  Post back if neither of these solutions solve your issue.

  • Exporting png sequence using various effects(ie=3d stroke etc etc

    hello forumers.
    is it possible that i can do an animation using any type of effects  and then exporting my document as a png sequence,and the importing it into ps?
    thank you.

    ok i found it.
    Choose File > Export > Image Sequence.
    In the Export Image Sequence dialog box, set the exporting format to PNG.
    Enter 30 as the Frames per Second value.
    Click the Options button and choose Millions of Colors+ from the PNG Options dialog box so you can export the image sequence with an alpha channel (see Figure 6).
    thank you.

  • Importing Sales orders and Invoices thru DTW

    Hi every one,
    I am facing a unique problem when using DTW to import sales orders and invoices through DTW.
    I am using the two templates- Documents and Document Lines. But the imported Invoice or the sales order(In both cases) the dicount field in the row is taking a negetive discount value. Let me elaborate....
    1. I am taking a BP which has been alloted a Particular pricelistcode in the BP Master.( say it be Purchase price).
    2. Now In the Doc_lines Template I have put the value in the price column- (eg. Rs. 500).
    3. Now the itemcode used in the template is already having a masters and the prices are also defined in SAP B1. Say the Purchase price defined for the item is Rs.400
    4.When I am importing the order/nvoice then the discount field in the row automatically takes a value of -25%, the unit price has the value Rs.400 and the Total Field shows Rs.500.
    ( this Implies that the price I have suggested to Import i.e. Rs500 is some how not taken by the system. The system takes the price defined for the BP and then adjusts it with the price suggested by the user during import) So a negetive discount is taken.
    On the other hand if the same procedure is followed for an item where the prices are not updated in the master data then there is no such problem. the unit price field reflects the price which is given in yhe template.
    please suggest a way to get out of this problem.

    Hi Debraj,
    Try the following..
    In Admin > System init > Document Settings > General Tab ..Calculate the Row total using Unit price ....... leave this  unchecked
    Also, at the Document_lines template fill the discount column with 0

  • Importing picture sequence in Media Encoder ? like in the help

    If you look in this help document   http://help.adobe.com/en_US/AdobeMediaEncoder/4.0/WS8A54CAA7-268E-4af0-B8A4-0EA3EACEC1A3.h tml
    it says you can import TGA sequence and JPG sequence. From the document :
    - JPEG and JPEG sequence (JPE, JPG, JFIF)
    - Targa and Targa sequence (TGA, ICB, VDA, VST)
    but I was unable to do that. You can drop a jpg file in MEdia Encoder and it will convert just fine - but only the first frame. How to load the entire sequence ?

    I'm trying to import. When you're working with 3d graphics and rendering - the common work-flow would be to render a series of frames, a sequence. Many people work like this also even with normal footage.
    Or some programs expect also a sequence. For example the software Nuke (commonly used for compositing in films like Watchmen and Avatar).
    And because I think Adobe Media Encoder is one of the fastest encoders around I would like to use it to convert a sequence of JPG in a WMV or H264.
    Since it can export a sequence of TGA or BMP it's only normal to expect that it can read also a sequence. And more so the Help says it can :
    Supported still‑image formats :
    JPEG and JPEG sequence (JPE, JPG, JFIF)
    Targa and Targa sequence (TGA, ICB, VDA, VST)
    But if I drag a JPEG file in the encoder - it reads only the first frame. Is there a special method to read the rest of the frames ? Maybe a script , or maybe I have to make a text file like a playlist ..or something.
