Scrolling problem...

I am having trouble setting scrolling. I set the global game size to 800x600 and have frame 2 set to 1280x1024 so I could see if I could get it to work correctly. It says in the help file under 'The Storyboard Control Object' - "For example, if you create a scrolling game, you can set the scrolling options to scroll with the Player object so that the player is always visible on screen.". What I have is a basic 'active object' player movable and under properties-events tab i have it qualified as 'player' (not sure if that matters). Then I have other 'active objects' stationary to test the scrolling. When I go to the event editor and right click the storyboard controls box, i get 3 options under the scrollings menu, and none of them tie it to the player object. Can someone help me, is there an easy step by step to set up scrolling to an object? Thanks...

Just create an "Always" condition. The open the storyboard action menu, open the scrolling submenu, select Center window position in frame, and select you player object. You will have a new action. It should work.
