Decision order in advanced actions

Just wondering if something is possible, although I'm thinking it isn't.

I have an advanced action with a number of decisions on it. Decision 1 makes an image visible if a variable, VarA, = 1. Decision 2 hides the image if VarB = 1. I thought by putting Decision 2 first in the Advanced Action it would override Decision 1, but it isn't working that way.

Is it possible to make one decision override another in the same advanced action?

Thanks,

Lorraine.

    All decision blocks in a conditional action are executed starting from the one at far left and moving to the right as seen on the dialog box.

    If you want one of the decisions to override another move it to the right, not the left.

    I tried to explain a use case where changing the decision order solved the problem for a user in this forum, have a look:

    Blog after Posterous? - ClickClick - Captivate blog

    Scroll immediately to the part 'ClickClick'.
