I've been wasting my entire day trying to get Animate to export an OAM file. I'm not sure if it's Animate's fault or Muse's for not being able to display it.
So now I'm trying to get Animate to export to a video file which I could import into Muse. But when I click the button to produce the file I get a warning that says
"Error creating SWF movie file.
Be sure the destination file is not locked or on a locked drive. Also, check that the file name is not too long."
I'm not trying to create an SWF file, I'm trying to create a video (MOV) file.
The disc is not locked
I've shortened the file name as much as possible.
I even reinstalled the Animate programme.
I've tried creating simpler Flash animations and it appears to have no problem exporting.
My animation consists of a rotating wheel that moves left and right to reveal an image behind, thru the use of a mask layer. I've tried to recreate each of these steps one by one and they seem to work fine all the way. Then as I continue to work on the final file, just tweaking it, it suddenly stops cooperating. So I've tried to remove bits step by step until I get to a blank canvas and even then it won't work.
