Specifying conditions

Using variables, you can create conditional actions. Conditional actions are actions that will only execute when a logical variable statement such as MyVariable equals 1, is true. You can specify single or multiple conditions for an action. This enables you to execute the action, only when the specified conditions have been satisfied.

Consider the following example:

• Action A
  The action specified on the General tab of the Action Properties window.

• MyVariable = 1
  The condition specified on the Condition tab of the Action Properties window.

If MyVariable = 1, Action A will execute when the On trigger specified on the General tab of the Action Properties window is fired. If MyVariable is equal to anything other than 1, the action will not execute.
