Hi there, 
I looking for some help in getting a block to function the way I want it to. 

I would like to have a piece of text be able to update to a set amount based on the angle that its rotated to. I so far have it set up where the text will move how I want it to, but I cant for the life of me figure out how to get it to update automatically without setting up a million different visibility settings.

Can anyone please give me some direction if want I want to do is even possible.

Thanks in advance!

I think you would have to use a FIELD.  Is that feature available in LT?
