Thanks Marie. Yes, this indeed looks like the same bug.

The workaround for now is to position the playhead at the start of the transition in the timline of the element you want to duplicate, select the element, and then do a Copy/Paste Special > Paste All...this will essentially duplicate the element with everything on it, and avoid the exception.

hth,

Joe

So you do have transitions on these elements when you duplicate them?

Hi resdesign,

Is this the same issue reported here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1160457?tstart=0

If you don't have any transitions on the element you duplicate, please add more detail on how to reproduce this, or provide a sample file that shows the error.

Thanks,

Joe

I think I saw some posts on this issue.

Sequence:

element ellipse created on the stage symbol
png added to the stage symbol
attempt to duplicate ellipse by right-clicking and choosing duplicate

Error: "an error has occured. Save your work and restart Edge Animate

This error has occured several time in several compostion.

Restarting Edge did correct the issue this time but I had some occasions when the whole composition returned with nothing in it which is really frustrating. Other occasions reopened to the last saved not including the save done after the error.

REQUEST:

Autosave as with InDesign would be so great!!!
