Not sure if this is the right section to post this question, sorry if not...

Is it possible to detect if a track has a loop named "Loop 1" and then highlight one of the custom buttons? Basically I want to use Loop_Load_Prepare "loop 1" but have the button high lighted when the track is loaded to indicate there is a "loop 1". Loop_Load "loop 1" does this but the execution when the button is pressed is different.

Thanks in advance for the help....

Actually, the more I research this, I realise it will need to be implemented at skin level. I guess the only bit I'm missing is the ability to query whether a loop of a certain name exists?
 
Try..
loop_load "loop 1" ? on & loop_load_prepare "loop 1" : off & loop_load_prepare "loop 1"

or this (which will blink if the Loop 1 is active ) ...
loop_load "loop 1" ? loop_load_prepare "loop 1" ? blink & loop_load_prepare "loop 1" : on & loop_load_prepare "loop 1" : off & loop_load_prepare "loop 1"
 
Thanks and works perfectly....

Having studied what has been done, I missed the bit in the wiki that states that actions can be queries, doh!.

loop_load "loop 1" ? on & loop_load_prepare "loop 1" : off & loop_load_prepare "loop 1"

Just as part of an education process:

loop_load "loop 1" ? - queries if loop 1 exists.
on & loop_load_prepare "loop 1" - Result true i.e. loop 1 exists execute loop_load_prepare "loop 1". What is the function of "on", is that the status of button illumination?
off & loop_load_prepare "loop 1" - Result false i.e. loop 1 doesn't exist execute loop_load_prepare "loop 1". I presume you need something in the false state but would "off" on it's own be good i.e. leave the button illumination off?
