Phil, that is awesome. I don't know if the variable/math handling has changed, but when I built my calipers a few years ago, I couldn't make it work without javascript. Being able to do it with Storyline's variables is gonna be a big help on a couple of upcoming projects, and that invisible layer trick is really clever. Thank you very much for sharing this!
I would love to use something similar to Rob's creation, but I am getting a little lost with all of the variables. Is there anyone who would be willing to break this down for me?
It's been so long since I've built anything with the calipers that I may need to relearn it, too, but I'm still out here and happy to help! Feel free to drop me a line: robpattonnursing@gmail.com.

You could do this with two slides and a bit of maths

Nice one, Phil!

I was able to build on the above:
I'm sure someone smarter than myself can tidy up my sprawling mess of variables, but maybe this will save someone some time and grief.
Thank you all for this thread. I learned a lot and am walking away with the solution to a problem I've wanted solved for years!

Thank you, Phil, David and Rob! This is exactly what I've been looking for. So much appreciated.
