  Ah yes, that's it, thank you! So instead of using the default ScrollTo behavior, you have to code your own that clamps movement to the area outside the GUI elements. Thanks again!

  Oh well yes I know about layers. However, if I put a GUI layer over the main scrolling background, it doesn't restrict the scrollable/movable area, and it is possible for things to move underneath of the GUI where they can't be seen. I was wondering if there was a way to restrict that built into Construct.

  I am thinking I would have to add enough solid border around the edge to keep the player sprites from being able to move under the GUI. That might do the trick instead.

  Hi all,

  just getting started with Construct 2, and have looked at dozens of examples and not sure I've seen the following issue tackled. If I have overlooked an example or tutorial please let me know which one.

  I'm currently prototyping my game and have it scrolling to follow the player and it's working fine. However I want to add some GUI elements to the edges. Is it possible to restrict the viewport where the player is and the part that scrolls to a specific subsection of the screen?

  Thanks,

  Khoram
