How to execute an IfMatch only if a variable is in a given state?

Thanks, balala

When I wrote of 'stor[ing] any process number in a string', I meant storing a number in a variable; and I was reporting that my attempts at such storing had resulted in the number being stored as a string. However, from your post it seems that one can have variables that really are numbers. I will investigate - though I am somewhat loathe to mess with my code now, because that code does work.

'A measure name followed by a colon is a section variable and it means the numeric value of the appropriate measure. The measure name simply (surronded by brackets) is another section variable, but it means the string value of the measure. Even if in most cases these two are the same, this is not always true, like this time.' Ah. I think I see what you mean, though I'll have to think about it a bit. (I am in a rush!)

Thanks again.

To see the difference, add the following string meter to your code:

Code: Select all

[MeterValue]
Meter=STRING
MeasureName=measure_processTop
X=0
Y=0
Padding=15,5,15,5
FontColor=220,220,220
FontEffectColor=0,0,0
StringEffect=Shadow
SolidColor=0,0,0,150
FontSize=8
FontFace=Segoe UI
StringStyle=BOLD
StringAlign=LEFT
AntiAlias=1
Text=String:		%1#CRLF#Num:		[measure_processTop:]
DynamicVariables=1
