Parallax backgrounds

[RedWarriorKTF]

Hi can someone help me, I cant understand why my background is starting mid screen and not taking the full width of the screen. I have been following Shaun Spaldings tutorial on this but it doesnt seem to work for me.

here is my code...

///Create camera

cam = view_camera[0];
follow = oHamish;
view_w_half = camera_get_view_width(cam) * 0.5;
view_h_half = camera_get_view_height(cam) * 0.5;
xTo = xstart;
yTo = ystart;

//BGLayer01 = laye

And for the event...

///Update camera

//Update destination
if (instance_exists(follow))
{
    xTo = follow.x;
    yTo = follow.y;
}

//Update object posititon
x += (xTo - x) / 25;
y += (yTo - y) / 25;

//keep camera in centre inside room

x = clamp(x,view_w_half,room_width-view_w_half);

//Update camera view
camera_set_view_pos(cam,x-view_w_half,y-view_h_half);

if (layer_exists("Background02"))
{
    layer_x("Background02",x);
}

Just as an Update! This was due to tiling. The way the code sets it up requires the background to tile. Just though Id let you know for anyone else using one piece of art for the BG.
