how do you fix something to the play area so it is always visible at the bottom where ever the screen scrolls to?

Always - Set Y position to " Y Bottom Frame - 20 "
Set X position to " X Left Frame "
That should work, i didnt fully try it just quickly did it. i think there is a better way but i cant remember cause i havent done anything scrolling wise for ages.
Im setting it to the Bottom frame - 20 because if you set it to the bottom frame the object will be to far to the bottom and will be out of the scrolling area.

I am not an expert, but shouldn't you get the same result by marking the follow the playfield box in the objects prefences (the extra section)?

As Nikodemus said, you can untick "follow the playfield" in the object's preferences window, which involves no events in the event editor.

Yeah unchecking "follow the playfield" in the object's properties (under "scrolling" in MMF) is the better method, and uses up less memory.

Improved version for the events:
Always - Set Y position to " Y Bottom Frame - object height "
Set X position to " X Left Frame "
This makes the game look up the object height so there's no need for re-fitting whenever you change the object size.

No but you can work it out by subtracting Y co-ordinate of top edge from Y co-ordinate of bottom edge.
