maxscripts when changed functionality

dejawolf

right, i'm trying to get this little bit of code to work for an animation:

when transform $V1 changes do
(
$xaxis.text = $V1.position.x as string
$yaxis.text = $V1.position.y as string
)

its an uphill battle though, i can't find anything in the maxscript documentation on changes in animation.
maybe i should try and update it every frame instead?
how do i do that? hmmmm..

You can register a callback when the animation time is updated with registerTimeCallback myFuncName


fn myFuncName = (
$xaxis.text = $V1.position.x as string
$yaxis.text = $V1.position.y as string
)

unRegisterTimeCallback myFuncName
registerTimeCallback myFuncName

thanks! that works.
another problem i'm having is that only one of the .txt are updating.
