Hi Andy,
Invert the triggers to start at the last object state instead of the first object state.
Example: For an object to start tall and get shorter when the slider is dragged, create an object with 10 states and each state has a shape that is incremental in size from "tall" to "short". When slider variable is 1 change state to 1. When slider variable is 10 change state to 10. Inversely, to show bar start short and grow taller, change the triggers that when the slider variable is 1 change the state to 10. When the slider variable is 2 change the state to 9, etc.
Attached is a starter example I use when teaching this concept.

I want it to go the other way (up). I'm assuming this is something easy I just can't find it!
