If I understand your question varA doesn't have to change for varB to change. For example, if VarA and VarB both default as True and you have a slide that says to change the value of VarB to False if VarA = T (when the timeline starts). In this situation VarA would not have changed but VarB would.
No problem. Glad it made sense. It doesn't matter whether a variable changes or not but what the state of a variable is, in this case, when the timeline starts.
Not sure I follow. I frequently use a variable to adjust other variables. Here is an example where a variable called Country is changing a variable called SuitabilityPre.

Thanks, Brett.
So essentially, VarA does have to change in order to use the value of varA to change the value of VarB.
Correct? If so, There is no way to change the value of varB using the current value of varA.
So in my example; Your solution requires the change of varA at the outset or some other condition as long as varA is changed.
varA = False initially
When timeline starts change varA = True
if varA=True
then change varB to True

Oh, sorry. Brett, I read your solution again. Now I get it. No change to VarA with your solution.
Thanks, Man.
Cheers.

Nope. Storyline doesn't give us the option to use varA or any variable/"Object", if the "Action" is to "Adjust Variable".
Work around? Brett? Anybody?

Is this not what you're talking about?
This works.
Set varA = T inititally
set varB = F initially
varB changes to T or whatever value varA equals.
That's a possibility but not the only one. VarB changes to whatever you tell it to change to; it doesn't have to equal VarA.
I see. Your solution works too, and doesn't require varA.
Thanks,
