Is it possible to make a variable of several variables?

Meaning can I define a new variable as two existing variables?

As in, I already have a UserName variable and an ID variable. I want a new variable called UserNameAndID that shows something like "UserName, ID" or "UserName (ID)"

    You can concatenate into a new variable or one of the two existing variables, with an expression:

    If v_one stored 'Lieve' and v_two stored ' Weymeis', the result for v_three will be 'Lieve Weymeis'.

    It worked! Thanks!

    But is there a way to add a space somehow? Right now it comes out together like 'LieveWeymeis'.

    Not with an advanced action, I added the space in the value for v_one before Weymeis.

    Cool! Can I then display the result onscreen?

    Of course, just use the X button in the Properties panel to insert that variable in a text container (shape or caption). The result will appear on runtime.
