Now, I know how to animate in canvas and tile it. However
when I tried to animate/move the character over the tiled canvas,
 the results were varied,  depending on how I did it.
Anyway there weren't quite right.  So does any one have an example(s)
of this, or the general idea of how its supposed to work in canvas.

Yes, both. On the CD you should find an example called "TwoFive" which does animation over a 2.5-D tiled floor. And in issue 1.1 of RB Developer is an article called "Three Ways to Animate" which shows how to animate a spaceship over a starry background on a Canvas, SpriteSurface, and Rb3DSpace.

Best,
