Variables in V5 are absolutely wonderful, I love them! But I ran into a slightly odd issue:

I'm using a variable to switch between two texts I display:

If myVariable == true then display "MyDefaultText" else display "$ut" (that's the user data title).

I'm using this in a virtual tour, where each panorama has different user data. It does not work - $ut displays exactly the same for every single panorama. If I swap the parameters, all is well:

If myVariable == false display "$ut" else display "MyDefaultText"

A strange little thing - is it intended behaviour?

There seems to be a similar problem with changing the position of an element based on a variable - even if I don't use different values for the coordinates, the element is placed at very different places, depending on the variable being "true" or "false".

Thanks!
