Tell edge animation to play

Hi, Is it possible to tell an edge animation to play from a button widget in muse?

Hi
Sorry to say but there's not much going on between the two camps, Muse and Edge A that is.  Like you, I subscribe to Muse but since I discovered EA...well...
Thing is, dragging the aimated button to the trigger container just overlays it which effectively hides it.  Hence, it will simply not work as a trigger to launch lightbox.  I myself had the same idea....but its more involved that this.  As always.
A possible solution might be to design your lightbox  and simply use the built in trigger for now -  go ahead and publish the site like this.  View your site in a browser of your choice then click on the trigger which will reveal the URL that launches the Lightbox feature.  Copy this in the browser.  Cheeky eh?
Then go back to your button in Edge A (select it) and add an on click event handler (look for {} to the left of the element and select click event).  Using the snippets on the right-hand plane choose add URL and paste the link from the clipboard between the " " so when the button is clicked it references the lightbox.  Go back to Muse and position your edge button again and publish again.  Its very long winded I know.  Get it? Will it work? dunno.  Have I tried it? no.  But the logic is faultless, because the URL trigger on your button  should point to the lightbox...thats the theory anyway.
Hope this is of some help and hope it works...might as well give it a try eh?...this is how I discovered Edge A trying to animate buttons etc.  In the end I decided to build my entire site using it. 
regards

  • Adobe edge animation not playing properly on Google Chrome

    hi, just noticed this. finishing up my website    http://www.thomasdrotardesign.com/work.html
    i've just noticed that the edge animation plays the beginning of the animation then disappears completely except for a font here and there on Google Chrome.
    it plays perfectly across all the other browsers. any idea what is going on here.
    there is nothing nested. it is a straight time line. i am building it on a mac osX 10.9.4

    DISCOVERY     the reason adobe edge animation  and google don't play well together is because if you use any sort of filter on your typography this will not appear on the chrome browser. sad but true. once i removed all the blur filters off my animations they started playing perfectly on chrome. this is too bad in that chrome is the largest used browser out there. thank you Redesign for your suggestion.

  • Pause edge animation with play bar

    Hi there is there a way to automatically pause an edge animation when the user pauses the project?

    I don't agree about SL: Captivate has responsive projects, is still much better for software simulations, has HD Video Demo slides and it integrates wonderful with Photoshop and Audition. You can create an app because of its integration with Phonegap and the way you can preview a responsive project on devices with Edge Inspect is another unique feature. Maybe you'll understand why one of my nicknames is Captivate Defender
    And I also would appreciate a better integration with Animate, totally agree on that point. Did you log a feature request?

  • Edge animation not playing in browser?

    I created a portfolio slideshow in Edge Animate, it plays beautiful inside of Animate but it will not play in any browser, I'm not sure why.
    Any ideas why?

    What do you need to know about how it is set up?
    I'm on a Mac, I've used Safari, Firefox, Chrome and Opera.. doesn't play on any.

  • Sound in Edge Animation not playing in iPad

    Hi everyone,
    I'm developing a very simple animation in Edge for a Christmas Card (http://www.luiscovas.com/MTS/ecard_MTS_som.html) which works perfectly in desktop browsers. Unfortunatly, when I try it in iPad (either with Safari or Chrome) the sound doesn't play (the animation does, but not the sound).
    I used buzz.js, following this tutorial - http://www.edgedocks.com/content/edge-animate-adding-sound-effects
    Does anyone nows why the sound doesn't play in iPad? I don't know if this issue only happens with IOS or if it also happens with Android...
    I have to deliver this proposal by tomorrow and I'm kind of desperate!

    I am having similar issues getting my Edge Animate to work on iPhones. I used the buzz like everyone else but am confused about the trigger. That means I have to have a button? And can I have it start both the music and animation?
    I also have an alternate Flash version for desktops like the other poster here but now my clients like the idea of the mobile version and want it. It works perfectly on my Galaxy 3. Here is the link http://www.blcgraphics.com/ecard2/hhic2013e.html.
    How can I test it without having an iphone?

  • Edge animation  only plays when I arrive at the page from the next page

    Hi Everyone, I'm really at my wit's end. Everythign was working fine Friday and then on Sunday, it just stopped.
    I have several a 13 page Indesign CS6 file, one .OAM file per page. Page 1 plays fine, but when I advance to page 2, the box with the .OAM file flashes, then nothing. The rest of the pages play fine, but if I were to swipe to page 3, then back to page 2, page 2 now plays fine. But if I were to swipe from page 2 to page 1, page 1 does not play.
    What's even more odd is any animation I move to page 2 will not play. So if I were to put a blank page as page 2, the non-working page 2 will now animate when it is moved to page 3.
    This is an important job, is there a higher level of Adobe tech support I can subscribe to for 1 on 1 help?

    Good point, Alistair. I've started rebuilding each page in a new InDesign document and things were going smoothly, until I reached the 8th page, which contains the 8th .OAM (there's one per page). Now, some animations have stopped displaying—same as my original problem. The similarity is while I had 13 pages built up in the original document, it started getting buggy once the 8th .OAM went in. Maybe I've reached the limit to what InDesign/DPS can handle? And once the glitch was set in, it didn't matter if I reduced the file down to 2 pages, the error remained.
    Is it possible to divide up the document to two files, pages 1-7 and pages 8-13, then use DPS to combine them for the iPad?
    I have plenty of RAM and hard drive space. 16GB RAM, 5 TB storage space, 470 GB internal.

  • How do I import my edge animation in indesign so that it can play within a PDF file

    how do I import my edge animation in indesign so that it can play within a PDF file??
    Plz help.

    Hi there,
      Have you tried reading this tutorial on exporting Edge Animate files to be used in InDesign?
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/digitalpublishingsuite/articles/enhancing-your-dps-folios-with -edge-animations.edu.html
      Edge Animate files can be played in DPS folios. PDFs are not capable of playing Edge Animate files at this time. I did find a work around to get SWF files to play in PDF documents:

  • Why won't my adobe edge animations play from the start each time they are loaded on an Adobe DPS layout?

    Hi there
    I have an adobe DPS document with several pages, and edge animations on each page. I want each animation to play from the start when each page is opened, however, the playback seems to be very inconsistent. Some animations play from the start, others half way through, and some playback incorrectly. I want to also be able to return to each page and have the animations reload, instead of just displaying the final frame of the animation.
    I have played around with the delay time which doesnt seem to fix it.
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi, Im DPS projects medias like video, audio, animation html5 dosen´t reload inside the same article, just between the articles. Better produce articles just one page and change pages with horizontal swipe Regards

    Thank you for your answer.
    I do use cdn off for publish setting.
    The Web site that I am working on is a very complicated site. Edge
    animations are in a subdirectory of Apache server.
    When server is offline, I get all files from Appcache without problem,
    excepted *_EdgePreload.js.
    I Google hundreds time, cannot find answer on why this file is always get
    online.
    Finally, I find out myself, Adobe Edge don’t like relative file path for
    *_EdgePreload.js.
    Change to root absolute path fixed the problem:

  • Why won't my Edge animation play in DPS?

    I've created a very simple animation of svg elements fading from 0-100% opacity (no code) in Adobe Edge. When I import it into folio (set for for iPad) the animation would not play. When I preview it on desktop, I would only see the poster image and then quickly fade to white. From what I've read in one of the other forums, I have the Edge animation set up for retina (2048x1536), and then in InDesign: 1024, in folio: 2048; however, still no luck. I published the animation for Animate Deployment Package (oam), really can't think of anything else that might have gone wrong...
    Please help, thanks!

    Hi Elaine,
    This is Annie, I just updated my account to the company's account.
    Thank you so much for for your help, I was able to download the zip file. As it turns out I wasn't using the latest edge animate and indesign. After updating everything, as well as downloading the DPS destop tool kit http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5571 I tried to open the file you sent me. I got the error message: An error has occured while generating article preview. Could not find the adobe content viewer. So I tried to download the content viewer again but still, same message. I really can't figure out why...

  • Stopping Edge animation play after page visit.

    I have an Edge animation as a banner on my homepage. I was wondering how, if for example someone landed on my homepage the animation plays out, then navigates to my portfolio page, then back to the homepage, the animation would not play again. I think I'm trying to go the more is less route, also I think it will increase overall page loading speed, than trying to replay the animation everytime you return to my homepage. I hope this made sense. Thanks.

    Hi there, the first thing that comes to mind is to use session storage. Set a variable "isFirstTime", and check it on Stage.compositionReady in Edge. You can then jump to the end of your timeline, effectively skipping the animation. Alternately, you could set and check session storage outside of Edge, and swap out the div's contents to either contain Edge content, or a static image, etc.
    Here is a good example:
    http://www.w3schools.com/html/html5_webstorage.asp
    Session storage stores data until the user closes the browser, so they would see the animation again if they closed the browser and visited your site they next day, but they wouldn't see it again on the same visit.

  • EDGE animation plays before I come to the page in an Article

    Hello,
    I have created an EDGE animation, and, it plays before I get to the page in an Article.
    I have created other animations and placed them into articles and other folios, but, on this, it does not play correctly. I would like it to play upon entering the page or going to the page. but, when I enter the page it has already palyed. Might you have some hints or answers?
    Thank you,
    L

    Need to set a delay on it with Folio Overlays panel I believe, little tricky if
    its in a smooth scrolling page as that maybe loaded in one go, even
    though it should tile.

  • Play Edge animation only once

    I have created an animation in Edge Animate, and placed it in the middle of a page in Muse and applied the Edge Animate scroll effect.
    The animation works nicely, but it repeats over and over as I scroll. I only want the animation to play ONCE.
    I tried coding a STOP ALL action on the final frame, but that seems to be ignored by Muse.
    I even tried extending the end of the animation, and jumping back so it would sit and loop on the final frame ad infinity... that too seems to be ignored by Muse.
    Is there really no way to only have an animation play once while scrolling?

  • DPS and Edge - animation plays before page loads

    Hi-
    I have had a continuing challenge with animations created in Edge and placed into an Adobe DPS document. Short animations that are intended to play when the viewer gets to the page (onload) are already finished playing when the page is viewed. Other CSS3 and jquery based animations load as expected only when the page is navigated to and "in view".
    I was excited for the latest Edge release and CS6 hoping that this issue had been resolved, but it is still happening for me.
    Has this been resolved? Using an event handler or not checking "Autoplay" and requiring user interaction to initiate the animation are not the effect I want.
    Did you find a resolution to this?
    I also posted this question to the Edge forum...
    Thank you!!
    Shawn

    I don't recall mentioning onLoad, but since you mention it...
    Edge triggers auto-play animations off the onLoad event right now. In DPS publications the correct event to trigger on is onAppear. We're working with the Edge team to make sure that when you publish for DPS the auto-play animations look for the right event.

  • Edge Animation plays only after page refresh in Firefox

    There is an issue with animation playback in Firefox (I have the newest version - 27.0) - it works only after page reload or if you go to another page and come back to the home page.
    I've saved Edge animation as .oam package and placed into Muse. My animation is floating clouds right above roof on homepage.
    When I open html generated by Edge Animate in Firefox it works perfectly at once.
    Please help!
    I would appreciate any advice.
    Thanks!
    Here is my site http://www.digidom.kz.

    Same FF version here, your page loads fine here, upon first visit and subsequent visits.
    Have you tried clearing out browser cache; restart FF then reload/revisit your page.
