How do we use stringcompare for two labels? - igotdvds - 2011-04-08 06:12
I need to do something like this:
Code:
stringcompare(Skin.String(Delete_Show_Number_1),ListItem.TVShowTitle)Is this possible? I can get it to prove true if I set it to say:
Code:
stringcompare(Skin.String(Delete_Show_Number_1),Justified)But I cant use an infolabel. Three hours later, I have no workaround. Anybody got an idea?

The second string needs to be formatted differently so XBMC knows it's info and not just a string.
PHP Code:
stringcompare(Skin.String(Delete_Show_Number_1),$INFO[ListItem.TVShowTitle])

That doesnt work either.

Have you checked they're both actually the same by using two separate labels on screen?
Either that or you need to add the container ID -
$INFO[Container(n).ListItem.Label]

They are the same label using:
Code:
<control type = "label">
<description>header label</description>
<posx>510</posx>
<posy>20</posy>
<width>700</width>
<height>30</height>
<font>Simplicity_40</font>
<label>$INFO[Skin.String(Delete_Show_Number_1)]</label>
<align>left</align>
<aligny>center</aligny>
<textcolor>white</textcolor>
<shadowcolor>black</shadowcolor>
</control>
<control type = "label">
<description>header label</description>
<posx>510</posx>
<posy>120</posy>
<width>700</width>
<height>30</height>
<font>Simplicity_40</font>
<label>$INFO[ListItem.TVShowTitle]</label>
<align>left</align>
<aligny>center</aligny>
<textcolor>white</textcolor>
<shadowcolor>black</shadowcolor>
</control>But when I compare them, I get nothing. I used:
Code:
<include condition="stringcompare(Skin.String(Delete_Show_Number_1),$INFO[Container().ListItem.TVShowTitle])">Delete_Eps</include>- Hitcher - 2011-04-08 16:03
You need to put the actual number of the list control in the brackets.

Nope. This is driving me crazy!
Code:
<include condition="stringcompare(Skin.String(Delete_Show_Number_1),$INFO[Container(532).ListItem.TVShowTitle])">Delete_Eps</include>- Hitcher - 2011-04-08 17:15
Stick both those labels outside of everything else and see what they return.
EDIT: Only just noticed you're using this as an include condition which could be the problem because include conditions are only checked once on loading the current window.

I stuck them outside and they return the same values. You think its the include? Is there a workaround?

Well it will only do the compare when you load MyVideoNav.xml so more than likely.
