Set only Date(or time) portion of DateTime variable w/o altering Time(or date)

📐 Rule Machine®

Trying to create a rule for RM that in the actions does a test to see if a DateTime variable is between two other DateTime variables, where the "between" DateTime variables should always have the current date (just constant times).

I thought I could simply use Set Variable to the current date action for the between variables, but that clears the time portion of those variables.

I've thought about other variable manipulations, but I don't see a way in RM to update only the date portion of a DateTime variable leaving time intact, any ideas?

A bad workaround would be to create a new rule(s) that triggers only on the time portion of the DateTime variable and then updates the same variable to the current date and time (ideally preserving the time as the rule ran at the time to be preserved)...probably bad idea for a few reasons.

Thanks, Darrell
