Hey guys, just got two quick questions, how can I make a shuffle button that stays highlighted when enabled, and also whenever I switch tabs, like from Playlist to Now Playing, when I go back to Playlist, everything resets to "All Artists"

Here's my code for the shuffle button: In TrackInfo_Mod

CODE

/// PerTrack

$button($sub($div(%_width%,2),193),12,0,0,0,0,dark1\buttons\now1.png,dark1\buttons\now2.png,dark3,)
$button($sub($div(%_width%,2),61),12,0,0,0,0,dark1\buttons\list1.png,dark1\buttons\list2.png,dark2,)
$button($add($div(%_width%,2),71),12,0,0,0,0,dark1\buttons\lyrics1.png,dark1\buttons\lyrics2.png,dark1,)

$if(%isplaying%,$if(%ispaused%,
$button($sub(%_width%,130),12,0,0,0,0,dark1\buttons\play1.png,dark1\buttons\play2.png,Play,),
$button($sub(%_width%,130),12,0,0,0,0,dark1\buttons\pause1.png,dark1\buttons\pause2.png,Pause,)),
$button($sub(%_width%,130),12,0,0,0,0,dark1\buttons\play1.png,dark1\buttons\play2.png,Play,))
$button($sub(%_width%,160),12,0,0,0,0,dark1\buttons\prev1.png,dark1\buttons\prev2.png,Previous,)
$button($sub(%_width%,100),12,0,0,0,0,dark1\buttons\next1.png,dark1\buttons\next2.png,Next,)
$button($sub(%_width%,70),12,0,0,0,0,dark1\buttons\stop1.png,dark1\buttons\stop2.png,Stop,)
$button($sub(%_width%,40),12,0,0,0,0,dark1\buttons\shnot.png,dark1\buttons\shnot.png,dark1\buttons\shsnot_over.png,'Shuffle (tracks)',)

$if($strcmp(%cwb_playback_order%,'Default'),
$button($sub(%_width%,40),12,0,0,0,0,dark1\buttons\shnot.png,dark1\buttons\shnot_over.png,'Shuffle (tracks)',)
,
$button2(5,5,0,0,50,20,'default','DEFAULT','Default',)
)
$button($sub(%_width%,40),12,0,0,0,0,
$if($stricmp(%cwb_playback_order%,'Shuffle (tracks)'),dark1\buttons\shnot_over.png,dark1\buttons\shnot.png),
$if($stricmp(%cwb_playback_order%,'Shuffle (tracks)'),dark1\buttons\shnot_over.png,dark1\buttons\shnot.png),
$if($stricmp(%cwb_playback_order%,'Shuffle (tracks)'),'Shuffle (albums)','Shuffle (tracks)')
,),)

// PerSecond
$alignabs(5,30,500,20,left,middle)
%cwb_playback_order%

SHNOT is the unglowing button, and SHNOT_OVER is the glowing button

I have tried with a couple of codes off of here, but I can get it 100% working, it goes on, but once it is on, I can't turn it off by clicking the button again.
Is it also possible to make an if statement that shuffles if the button is glowing (SHNOT_OVER) and doesnt if it is in normal mode?

Thanks!

You are drawing the button twice, this is known to cause weirdness. Try commenting out the line toward the top:

CODE

$button($sub(%_width%,40),12,0,0,0,0,dark1\buttons\shnot.png,dark1\buttons\shnot.png,dark1\buttons\shsnot_over.png,'Shuffle (tracks)',)

Here's how I'd rewrite the button code toward the bottom.

CODE

$button($sub(%_width%,40),12,0,0,0,0,

$if($stricmp(%cwb_playback_order%,'Shuffle (tracks)'),
/dark1\buttons\shnot_over.png,dark1\buttons\shnot_over.png,
/dark1\buttons\shnot_over.png,dark1\buttons\shnot.png
),

/dark1\buttons\shnot_over.png,dark1\buttons\shnot_over.png,

$if($stricmp(%cwb_playback_order%,'Shuffle (tracks)'),
'Default',
'Shuffle (tracks)'
)

,)

Also your first line. I was under the impression that the refresh tags were supposed to have two slashes not three.

CODE

// PerTrack

Sorry if I've misunderstood what you are trying to do, give that a try and if it doesn't work please provide more detail. Are you trying to simply toggle between default playback and shuffle by tracks? or some sort of three way toggle including shuffle by album?

just trying to toggle the shuffle ,or normal playlist playback, I will try what ya said real quick, thanks! and Ill let ya know if that works

CODE

// PerTrack

$button($sub($div(%_width%,2),193),12,0,0,0,0,dark1\buttons\now1.png,dark1\buttons\now2.png,dark3,)
$button($sub($div(%_width%,2),61),12,0,0,0,0,dark1\buttons\list1.png,dark1\buttons\list2.png,dark2,)
$button($add($div(%_width%,2),71),12,0,0,0,0,dark1\buttons\lyrics1.png,dark1\buttons\lyrics2.png,dark1,)

$if(%isplaying%,$if(%ispaused%,
$button($sub(%_width%,130),12,0,0,0,0,dark1\buttons\play1.png,dark1\buttons\play2.png,Play,),
$button($sub(%_width%,130),12,0,0,0,0,dark1\buttons\pause1.png,dark1\buttons\pause2.png,Pause,)),
$button($sub(%_width%,130),12,0,0,0,0,dark1\buttons\play1.png,dark1\buttons\play2.png,Play,))
$button($sub(%_width%,160),12,0,0,0,0,dark1\buttons\prev1.png,dark1\buttons\prev2.png,Previous,)
$button($sub(%_width%,100),12,0,0,0,0,dark1\buttons\next1.png,dark1\buttons\next2.png,Next,)
$button($sub(%_width%,70),12,0,0,0,0,dark1\buttons\stop1.png,dark1\buttons\stop2.png,Stop,)
// $button($sub(%_width%,40),12,0,0,0,0,dark1\buttons\shnot.png,dark1\buttons\shnot.png,dark1\buttons\shsnot_over.png,'Shuffle (tracks)',)

$button($sub(%_width%,40),12,0,0,0,0,

$if($stricmp(%cwb_playback_order%,'Shuffle (tracks)'),
/dark1\buttons\shnot_over.png,dark1\buttons\shnot_over.png,
/dark1\buttons\shnot_over.png,dark1\buttons\shnot.png
),

/dark1\buttons\shnot_over.png,dark1\buttons\shnot_over.png,

$if($stricmp(%cwb_playback_order%,'Shuffle (tracks)'),
'Default',
'Shuffle (tracks)'
)

,)

The button doesn't show up now

I did some testing and this should work:

CODE

// PerTrack

$button($sub($div(%_width%,2),193),12,0,0,0,0,dark1\buttons\now1.png,dark1\buttons\now2.png,dark3,)
$button($sub($div(%_width%,2),61),12,0,0,0,0,dark1\buttons\list1.png,dark1\buttons\list2.png,dark2,)
$button($add($div(%_width%,2),71),12,0,0,0,0,dark1\buttons\lyrics1.png,dark1\buttons\lyrics2.png,dark1,)

$if(%isplaying%,
$if(%ispaused%,
$button($sub(%_width%,130),12,0,0,0,0,dark1\buttons\play1.png,dark1\buttons\play2.png,Play,),
$button($sub(%_width%,130),12,0,0,0,0,dark1\buttons\pause1.png,dark1\buttons\pause2.png,Pause,)
),
$button($sub(%_width%,130),12,0,0,0,0,dark1\buttons\play1.png,dark1\buttons\play2.png,Play,)
)

$button($sub(%_width%,160),12,0,0,0,0,dark1\buttons\prev1.png,dark1\buttons\prev2.png,Previous,)
$button($sub(%_width%,100),12,0,0,0,0,dark1\buttons\next1.png,dark1\buttons\next2.png,Next,)
$button($sub(%_width%,70),12,0,0,0,0,dark1\buttons\stop1.png,dark1\buttons\stop2.png,Stop,)


$button($sub(%_width%,40),12,0,0,0,0,
$if($stricmp(%cwb_playback_order%,'Shuffle (tracks)'),dark1\buttons\shnot_over.png,dark1\buttons\shnot_over.png,dark1\buttons\shnot_over.png,dark1\buttons\shnot.png),
dark1\buttons\shnot_over.png,dark1\buttons\shnot_over.png,
$if($stricmp(%cwb_playback_order%,'Shuffle (tracks)'),'Default','Shuffle (tracks)')
,)

// PerSecond

$alignabs(5,30,500,20,left,middle)%cwb_playback_order%

However it would only update once per track and the button would only function once per track. I dunno if this is due to my recent upgrade to PanelUI or not so give it a try.
