Side scrolling sequence

[twtw]

Hi,

I want to create a side scrolling scene. For that I can create a big sprite of the scene and then resize the canvas to a smaller one without trimming the edges so that the whole layer is kept. But then if I select my layer and move it outside of the canvas, it is cut on the edge of the screen:

1. Before I move it
   

   

2. Moving the selection
   

   

3. The remaining part
   

   

What am a doing wrong and what is the best way of doing it without losing the drawing?

hi, as you can see in your second image, the selection is trimmed already. so you then move only the part which is selected. the best thing to do is just move the whole layer (cel), don’t use selection at all.
