Hello!

I'm trying to figure out how to pin the position of an object that is on a layer with 100% parallax (Layer A) to an object that is on a layer with 90% parallax (Layer B) so that when the screen scrolls, the object on Layer A stays in the same position relative to the object below it on Layer B.

Thanks for any help or thoughts on how to do this!

Afaik, there is no way to pin an object that way. What you can do is adjust its position on every tick:

ObjectB Set position to (LayerToLayerX(ObjectA.layer, self.layer, ObjectA.x, ObjectA.y), LayerToLayerY(ObjectA.layer, self.layer, ObjectA.x, ObjectA.y))
