Hi

I want to have text on my screen that displays the angle (in degrees) of an object.

i.e. set value of text to: object.angle

Couldn't find the syntax for it, any one know the syntax or a round about way?

Thanks guys

"Current Angle: " & floor(Object.Angle)

Which would display as:

Current Angle: 56 (Of course the number would be whatever your current angle is.
