Numeric variables - issues with tied results
Thanks Nedim, I'm sorry I wasn't very clear in my original message, the main issue I'm having is how to come up with a trigger for if there's a tie between two (or three, or four) of them, without creating tonnes of triggers and overcomplicating things further... e.g. "Show layer Tie when the timeline starts on this slide if A= variable B and if A= variable C". It's simpler when it's a 5 way tie, but it creates so many streams of triggers when there's ties of 2/3/4... Does that make more sense?
That makes sense, but it also complicates determining which trigger should take precedence when multiple conditions are met simultaneously. For example, if A = 7, B = 2, C = 2, D = 2, and E = 2, which layer should be shown: the "Tie" layer or layer "A"? In this case, B, C, and D all have the same value, with B = C and D = C, etc.
Yes... I think that has been what's been getting in the way when I've been setting up the triggers for the "Tie" layer to show in any case... Can you think of a trigger that would be a cover all for if there is not one clear leading point? I only want layers A,B,C,D or E to show if it's the leading point, and for any other occasion, show the "tie" layer.
I would love to know if you found a solution to this. I am encountering a similar issue.
