Camera scroll back to beginning?

Has anyone seen a tutorial on how to scroll the camera back to the default position after it's moved away? I have a game that after something happens off screen, it jarringly jumps back to the start, but I'm wondering if it's possible to have the camera scroll back instead of jumping back.

Cheers!

    probably with interpolate instead of change attribute.

    Yeah just trying to figure out how to get it to scroll back instead of jump back with Interpolate.

    Anyone tried to scroll the camera back to the default location using Interpolate?

    within an instance, interpolate camera.origin.X to an X of your choice and (if needed) interpolate camera.origin.Y to an Y of your choice.
    Set the time for fast or slow movement of the camera.

    Hey thanks Hachiko,

    I tried scene.Camera.Origin.Y To: scene.Camera.Origin.Y -600 (because I want it to scroll back down) but that still jumps down instead of scrolling. It's an Interpolate and on an instance...

    Ok nevermind I got it :) It wasn't working because I had other attributes on that instance.

    One question though - the camera will scroll down but keeps going lol, do you know how to make it stop or do I just have to get the -Y coordinates right to the botttom?

    Thanks a lot for your help.

    Ok nevermind, yeah I just had to specify the exact -Y pixel to get it to stop. Thanks again.
