Adobe Edge is a new motion and interactivity tool from Adobe which can output rich, interactive compositions using standard web technologies like HTML5, CSS, and JavaScript. I’ve recorded a small set of videos demonstrating some of the new features of Adobe Edge Preview 4 and present them here.
Joseph Labrecque demonstrates how to use Adobe Edge Preview 4 to create Symbols within an Edge composition.

‘movie clip timeline’ hahhaha ‘ermmm I mean symbol timeline’ – I’m so gonna get mixed up from flash to edge Joe
Great little video. Have you tried to create symbols in code. I am working on a timeline and I would like to create my date buttons at certain time.
I have not – but I think techniques like this will be needed for greater adoption. Right now, you’d need to publish your composition and then manipulate the API and JSON to get this to work. I’m hoping Adobe throws n some friendlier hooks for this sort of thing :)
