If you click and drag over a tool there are usually other tools within the tool that you have selected.]]> 2017-11-28 10:08:57 UTC https://padlet.com/zakgifford2001/m4mnnd2kz53r/wish/210805099 far17000316 https://padlet.com/zakgifford2001/m4mnnd2kz53r/wish/210806027  Frames - a Key frame in animation is a drawing that defines the start and end of any smooth transition. They are called frames because their position in time is measured in frames on a strip of film.
Symbols - a symbol is a graphic, button, or movie clip that you create once and then you can reuse this throughout your document or other documents

It is the process of generating intermediate frames between two images, to give the impression that the first frame changes smoothly into the image. This can involve changing the position, scale, rotation and opacity of objects.]]> 2017-11-28 10:13:43 UTC https://padlet.com/zakgifford2001/m4mnnd2kz53r/wish/210806543 llo17004875 https://padlet.com/zakgifford2001/m4mnnd2kz53r/wish/210807226 Adobe Animate documents include a library, which contains all of the media assets used in the animation. This can include vector graphics which have been created in Adobe Animate itself, or media which has been imported to be used within the document. The advantage of using a library is that it stores and sorts all of your important assets which you may need to access quickly, multiple times. ]]> 2017-11-28 10:16:08 UTC https://padlet.com/zakgifford2001/m4mnnd2kz53r/wish/210807226 playthefallen https://padlet.com/zakgifford2001/m4mnnd2kz53r/wish/210807343 Allows for pre/post processing of a scene with extras applied to certain objects if the user is allowed to interact with the scene.
Some of the extras can include Physics or changing how a scene object behaves.
Scripts can be coded in C, C#, Java, JavaScript, Lua, Python, *the list continues*.

Each frame of a button symbol represents a different state for the button: Up, Over, Down, and Hit. These states determine how a button visually behaves when the mouse is rolled over it or when the user clicks the button.

It holds special information that defines where a transition should start or stop. The intermediate frames are interpolated over time between those definitions to create the illusion of motion. ]]> 2017-11-28 10:18:55 UTC https://padlet.com/zakgifford2001/m4mnnd2kz53r/wish/210808058 llo17004875 https://padlet.com/zakgifford2001/m4mnnd2kz53r/wish/210808465 By taking advantage of the Dynamic Link feature of Adobe software, various media such as Photoshop PSD files can also be imported into Animate. This allows separate layers of the Photoshop document to be animated, without having to export each of the layers as a separate image.]]> 2017-11-28 10:20:16 UTC https://padlet.com/zakgifford2001/m4mnnd2kz53r/wish/210808465 hridgway_2k https://padlet.com/zakgifford2001/m4mnnd2kz53r/wish/210808709  A symbol is a reusable image, animation, graphic, movie clip, sound file, font or button that resides in the library. A bitmap (any imported graphic file) is not as controllable as a symbol. For example the alpha/opacity of a bitmap cannot be keyframed for dissolves but a symbol can be. ]]> 2017-11-28 10:21:05 UTC https://padlet.com/zakgifford2001/m4mnnd2kz53r/wish/210808709 zakgifford2001 https://padlet.com/zakgifford2001/m4mnnd2kz53r/wish/210812303 Up - when the mouse is anywhere other than the button
Over - When the mouse is over the button - can call it a rollover state.
Down - When you have clicked on a button it changes the state to activate something in a script.
Hit - The area around the button where the curser will change to show that it is a button]]> 2017-11-28 10:33:47 UTC https://padlet.com/zakgifford2001/m4mnnd2kz53r/wish/210812303
