How do I target another layer with the camera?
How/where do I select or input?

Also: How do I set an arm's length setting?

Amazing, amazing software, blufftitler.
That's why it's hugely frustrating for newbies like me. I know there's a solution for everything I wish to do, but it's like going on an archaeological dig to find it.

I think you are looking for the TARGET LAYER property of the camera layer.

This keeps the camera looking at another layer.

The ROTATION property is now relative to this direction so you might want to set the ROTATION prop to (0,0,0).

Here's an article about the ARMLENGTH property:

Target layer. So there's no way to actually pick/choose a target layer?
I have to point camera at target and then set rotation to 0,0,0 ?

The target layer is the index of the layer the camera looks at.

In this screenshot the camera (layer 1) is looking at the text layer (layer 3).
