I don't think there's a way to do that using the built-in {IF} commands, but it can certainly be done using a 5-10 line python script. Then you can just call that python script using the Simplify3D post processing section so it runs automatically anytime you export the gcode.

Where can we find the documentation on available variables ? 5.x was released last month ? for 200 USD and a 60USD upgrade for those waiting 5 years for it.. surely they can just toss out a list ? this is asinine.

I need to call the following variables to get their values inserted into (as part of) a starting script during slicing:
Prime pillar start position in X, and in Y
prime pillar width

I do not believe we have a placeholder variable for the prime pillar position or width, but that is certainly something that could be requested for a future release!
