Oh yay I got it! I never thought that finding my left from my right was so bloody hard!

		For selected.selecteddata = Each selecteddata
		
			;DO THIS NOW! YOU KNOW WHAT IT IS DYLAN!
			;should be easy, you just have to choose the most suitable of the 3 vertex's and use it according to the sheet of note paper that is somewhere in here...
			
			If leftx# > VertexX(selected\surface,selected\vert0) Then LeftX# = VertexX(selected\surface,selected\vert0)
			If leftx# > VertexX(selected\surface,selected\vert1) Then LeftX# = VertexX(selected\surface,selected\vert1)
			If leftx# > VertexX(selected\surface,selected\vert2) Then LeftX# = VertexX(selected\surface,selected\vert2)
			If leftx# = 0.0
				If leftx# < VertexX(selected\surface,selected\vert0) Then LeftX# = VertexX(selected\surface,selected\vert0)
				If leftx# < VertexX(selected\surface,selected\vert1) Then LeftX# = VertexX(selected\surface,selected\vert1)
				If leftx# < VertexX(selected\surface,selected\vert2) Then LeftX# = VertexX(selected\surface,selected\vert2)

;too many if's... we're all going to die! A jusgement is upon us!!!

			EndIf

		Next

Yes, I know this could be better, but I also still have to do two other axis's and remaim sane while I put in my code that makes this worth-while.
