# ParallaxX
### Introduction
MapDrawableBatches (map layers) support parallax by assigning the values in Tiled or in code. By default parallax has a value of 1, which means that the object will show no parallax. A value between 0 and 1 results in the layer behaving as if it is in the distance (not scrolling as quickly when the camera moves). A value greater than 1 results in the layer behaving as if it is in the foreground (scrolling more quickly when the camera moves).
### Example - Setting Parallax Factor in Tiled
To set parallax:
1. Open an existing map
2. Select a layer
3. Change its Parallax Factor property to the desired value
4. Tiled provides a preview of the parallax if you scroll the main view
Once the file is saved, the parallax will automatically be applied at runtime in the game.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://docs.flatredball.com/flatredball/tiled-plugin/flatredball-tilegraphics-mapdrawablebatch/parallaxx.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
