How can I adjust A and B and the same time?

Hi,
I am trying to adjust my object using A and B in proportion to eachother. I just need A to equal B and visa versa. Any help?

Thanks

To make it a 2-way interaction I would add this to the master script.

if GLOB_MODPAR_NAME = "A" then
	B=A
endif

if GLOB_MODPAR_NAME = "B" then
	A=B
endif

PARAMETERS A=A, B=B

Thanks, this worked nicely. Do you know if there is a way to get A to scale with B whilst keeping the same ratio? for example;
A = 1
B = 0.6

then

A = 2
B = 1.2


A = 4
B = 2.4... If that makes sense.

This is currently in my script but it doesn't keep them in proportion. Any ideas?

mulx A/0.01425853658068
muly B/0.01284951110122

I want the same effect as if they were 'chained' after being placed but set inside the object.

If you want the ratio adjustable by the user then I would set up a new parameter for the ration of B compared to A.

ratio = 0.6

if GLOB_MODPAR_NAME = "A" then 
    B=A*ratio 
 endif 

 if GLOB_MODPAR_NAME = "B" then 
    A=B/ratio 
 endif 

 PARAMETERS A=A, B=B 

Now you can adjust the ration parameter to whatever you want in each object.
If it will always be fixed at 0.6 then forget the 'ratio' parameter and just substitute '0.6'
