  1. I searched the forums and could not find a specific answer to this. I have a main timeline and nested timelines. I want to repeat the main timeline 3 times. Whenever I pass in the repeat parameters into the main timeline the whole thing breaks var mainTimeline = new TimelineMax(repeat:2, repeatDelay:20);

     

    I am about to put everything into one timeline due to time constraints but wondering if anyone has a solve for this? Thanks!

     

     

  2. I met with Monotype before the holidays last year and they are working on a display solution for web-fonts. They are aware of both cost and file size issues with the current web font subscription model and the unique needs of display with millions/billions of impressions. The system will only reference the needed characters and not the entire font family. For instance "Get this widget now" would only weigh the amount of those 16 characters. It supposed to work with both roll-your-own HTML5 and Adobe Animate type authoring environments. We'll see.

  3. In my workflow I use PhotoShop CC layers to export everything using Generate > Image Assets. I set all my text layers to .svg, photos to .png or .jpg, Works brilliantly as you can adjust things in photoshop, refresh your browser and the changes are applied with no exporting. Unfortunately with .svg there are no parameters that you can set in PS. For bitmaps you can add .png24 to the end or .jpg70%. I have to outline the text layer too so that the svg is font independent. The weight of the text changes with outlining, more noticeably on smaller size text which was a major pain point. Illustrator gives far better control but it is adding a second app to my work flow which I am not jazzed about. 

  4. I am searching for specific things in Docs and finding a lot of 0 results where there should not be. Searching for 3d Transformation or blur for example. I am finding them all by doing a google search but not in searching the docs search field. 

  5. I feel like sprite sheets add this additional layer of work to sort through. Its great for making one server call compared to 8 if that is an issue but its an awkward way to design for me. I am so use to coding my animations with GSAP in Flash that is not the problem. Using the Copy CSS functionality is a great way to get those top, left coordinates quickly while being able to visually design in PS.

  6.  get CSS positioning in Photoshop really easily. Just right click on the layer (has to be rasterized for bitmaps) and copy CSS. That way you can continue to visually layout ads in PS. Also you can use PS generate image assets in the same psd to auto export in png or jpg and the compression you need. This all came together for me this week. I created this simple ad quickly using the above. I had the HTML,CSS and JS shell already built. cwiens.com/curt/html5728x90/728x90.html
