Re: attaching objects to camera?

Howdy,

You can attach an object (or group) to the camera using a Match Move behavior. However, if you just want certain objects to ignore the camera (i.e. always be in the foreground or background, however much the camera moves), just put them in a 2D group at the root level of your project. For example, if you had a Layers List like this:

-2D Group
- Foreground object 1
- Foreground object 2
-3D Group
- Some object 1
- Some object 2
-2D Group
- Background object 1
- Background object 2

The contents of the top 2D group will always be on top and will ignore any camera movement. The bottom 2D group will always be behind everything and will also ignore the camera movement.
