Hi everyone.
I'm tweaking a skin to suit exactly what I need and am stumped on a DECK SELECT button.
I've created the bit of XML as shown here:
<button action="deck 1 select">
<size width="18" height="13"/>
<pos x="568" y="4"/>
</button>
But it simply will not work. It does nothing. Nada. Zilcho.
I use "deck 1 select" as a keyboard shortcut and it works. I use "deck 1 select" as a mapped comand from my midi controller and it works but it won't work from that clickable area on my skin.
Ay help would be fab. Cheers.

<selected .....
and <down ....

I did start out with those parts of code but it made nu difference so I stripped it down to try to figure out what was wrong.
I figured if the min/max/close buttons don't need the extra code I'd try keeping things simple just until I get it working.
Thanks.

You don't have to have <selected...> or <down....> for a function to work. They are only there to direct to an alternative part of the .BMP when the button is active.
As for why the deck select function button doesn't work, i am lost. The code looks fine to me.
All i would suggest is double check your spelling in actual XML, ensure you have opened and closed the function correctly.

The bit of XML is:
<button action="deck 1 select">
<size width="18" height="13"/>
<pos x="568" y="4"/>
</button>
I'm puzzled.

I just thought I'd mention that the select area (button) is in the top 'grab zone' and when I place my mouse over it, the cursor changes to a pointer so the actual area is being acknowledged as 'something' but when I click it, nothing and when I place mouse over it, the command is not shown in text like it does on other buttons.
