Attach Sprites to background(problems adding background)

Hello im completely new to game making and construct 2 and have some minor problems.First, i watched some tutorials on how to add a background and such, but when ever i do, when i add a sprite, it say layer is locked, i cant move or see a sprite. I might be doing this wrong but this one of my minor problems. And also, when i went to the Template:Platformer, i added a sprite and attach it to the background. Im trying to do the same but it still wont get me anywhere.

Could you post a screenshot of the Error when it says "layer locked"?

I don't think I ever saw that Error before.

Now to your second issue: How exactly did you "attach" the sprite to the background?

And if you would tell me what you want to create, I can give you a step-by-step instruction. :)

The layer is locked in the editor and it's set to not be visible - both are controlled in the editor's layers tab.

ok that make sense, on the layers
