Add Variable Count One Time Only

I am adding a variable count for slide layers where the variable is incremented by 1 at the start of the timeline. Is it possible to only have the variable count increment if this is the users first...

Based on your description, my sugegstion would be an additional True/False trigger to limit how many time the +1 trigger can work.

  1. Create a TRUE/FALSE trigger called Q1Done
  2. The existing trigger that adds +1 you can add "on the condition that Q1Done = False"
  3. Add a second trigger that happens on the same event right after the +1 trigger to set the Q1Done = True

That should keep the +1 from working more than once.
