Accessing/editing scene data: I know it's possible... I've seen it done... but how?

Zoyt

Hello,
I've always wanted to be able to edit the scene properties. But it's not available for everyone to see, so I gave up... Until I came across @firemaplegames's awesome tutorial about dynamic skewing found here: http://arcade.gamesalad.com/game/2869
I noticed he managed to edit the camera properties. And then, if you click on the attribute of the camera, it gives you options to edit all the scene options and even other actors! Here is a screenshot:

But no matter what I do (even copy and paste that behavior into my project), I can't seem to get it to work. If someone could help or tell me how to enable it, that would be great.
Thanks a lot!

I believe you can only edit "current scene" in actors that are unlocked for that scene, i could be wrong though.

CTG is correct. If you unlock the actor in the scene then you can access all the scene attributes and camera properties.

@CTG - Sadly, no. Thanks though and good, logical guess.
Thanks!

Thanks.

@zoyt might wanna make a habit of actually trying out the suggestions next time before shooting them down.
