Should it be possible to use a stringcompare on $ADDON[] labels?

I'm trying to enable / disable buttons based on the value of a label provided by an add-on:

PHP Code:

<control type="button" id="10">
    <left>756</left>
    <top>600</top>
    <label>$LOCALIZE[186]</label>
    <onup>301</onup>
    <onleft>308</onleft>
    <onright>-</onright>
    <ondown>401</ondown>
    <onclick>RunScript(script.skinshortcuts,type=buildxml&amp;mode=single&amp;mainmenuID=9110)</onclick>
    <onclick>Close</onclick>
    <include>dialog_WindowButton</include>
    <visible>StringCompare(Control.GetLabel(500),$ADDON[script.skinshortcuts 32071])</visible>
</control> 


(Label ID 500 can be either $LOCALIZE[31071] or $LOCALIZE[31072])

But this doesn't work. However when I use the non-localized string 32071 refers to, the condition does work.

I also tried to use

PHP Code:

<onclick condition="StringCompare(Control.GetLabel(500),$ADDON[script.skinshortcuts 32071])">RunScript(script.skinshortcuts,type=buildxml&amp;mode=single&amp;mainmenuID=9110)</onclick> 


because that way I would only need one button instead of one, but that will not work either.

Not sure about comparing to an $ADDON string - and hopefully someone else will come along who can answer that - but in this particular situation you can use (and I would suspect actually are for button 405 ) the following:

Code:

StringCompare(Window.Property("groupname"),mainmenu)

sigh...sometimes the solution is just right under the nose isn't it... Thanks man

Out of curiosity and possible future reference, I'm still interested in the answer though
