FS9 xml; Below, the variable (L:Agauge_ControlValue, number) is increased/decreased in mouse click section. In the other gauge code, IF-lines 0 through 9 store the correct values in the three variables Left, Ctr, and Right as the ControlValue variable is changed. However, when the IF-line comparing (l1 10 ==) is added to code, stored values suddenly become incorrect. Left becomes a zero, Ctr stays 1000, and Right becomes 21. They retain these values no matter what value the ControlValue variable is changed to. What happens when the additional line is added to cause this and how do I overcome the problem because I need comparisons through (l1 25 ==). (L:Agauge_ControlValue, number) s1l1 0 == if{ 2 (>L:Agauge_Left, number) 1000 (>L:Agauge_Ctr, number) 1 (>L:Agauge_Right, number) }l1 1 == if{ 4 (>L:Agauge_Left, number) 1000 (>L:Agauge_Ctr, number) 3 (>L:Agauge_Right, number) }l1 2 == if{ 6 (>L:Agauge_Left, number) 1000 (>L:Agauge_Ctr, number) 5 (>L:Agauge_Right, number) }l1 3 == if{ 8 (>L:Agauge_Left, number) 1000 (>L:Agauge_Ctr, number) 7 (>L:Agauge_Right, number) }l1 4 == if{ 10 (>L:Agauge_Left, number) 1000 (>L:Agauge_Ctr, number) 9 (>L:Agauge_Right, number) }l1 5 == if{ 12 (>L:Agauge_Left, number) 1000 (>L:Agauge_Ctr, number) 11 (>L:Agauge_Right, number) }l1 6 == if{ 14 (>L:Agauge_Left, number) 1000 (>L:Agauge_Ctr, number) 13 (>L:Agauge_Right, number) }l1 7 == if{ 16 (>L:Agauge_Left, number) 1000 (>L:Agauge_Ctr, number) 15 (>L:Agauge_Right, number) }l1 8 == if{ 18 (>L:Agauge_Left, number) 1000 (>L:Agauge_Ctr, number) 17 (>L:Agauge_Right, number) }l1 9 == if{ 20 (>L:Agauge_Left, number) 1000 (>L:Agauge_Ctr, number) 19 (>L:Agauge_Right, number) }l1 10 == if{22 (>L:Agauge_Left, number) 1000 (>L:Agauge_Ctr, number) 21 (>L:Agauge_Right, number) }Thanks,Glenn

The problem was no space in this line between bracket and 22 digits.l1 10 == if{22 (>L:Agauge_Left, number) 1000(>L:Agauge_Ctr, number) 21 (>L:Agauge_Right, number) }Glenn

Or, if all those ifs drive you crazy:22 20 18 16 14 12 10 8 6 4 2 11(L:Agauge_ControlValue, number) case d (>L:Agauge_Left, number) 1 - (>L:Agauge_Right, number)1000 (>L:Agauge_Ctr, number) :)--Jon

oops never mind

Perfect,I was hoping someone would suggest a better way to write all that code. I'll paste that into my little book.Thanks,Glenn
