Conditionals Q&A

-----------------------

[Tools for learning conditionals]

Q: by smallpsych
I want to learn this stuff. I've used things like Zooper and such in the past but those aps for making widgets typically don't have you writing the conditional codes yourself. I know nothing about this and was hoping for some help.
Thanks in advance.

	Conditionals are simple once you get behind the syntax. They are all constructed in the following scheme:
$[TAG][<>=][X]?[true]:[false]$
Simply put:
If [TAG] is [<>=] than [X] then set to [true], if not set to [false].
So, imagine you want your watchface to have a background image, but have it disappear after 10PM. Simply put
$#DHZ#<22?100:0$
as opacity of the background image. This way, facer will check if #DHZ# is below 22, and will turn off the background image once it isn't.
