I do not know if the action actually resets the variable as well, but you could try to use another variable (made by yourself) and get that one working.By the way, a very quick and easy way to find out what value a variable has is this:Create a textbox named "dummy" or something like it.Place "dummy" on a higher level.Create a action on the same level that allows you to change the contents of "dummy" and replace them with the value of your variable. On show, change content etc.Let us know what you find out.
