Topic: light up button when value is higher or lower than 50%

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

I seem to be asking impossible things lately (http://www.virtualdj.com/forums/218106/VirtualDJ_Skins/slider_and_fade_special_configuration.html) so why break with tradition ;)

How can I get a button to light up if the value is inferior to 50%?
I have a plus and a minus button for hi, mid, and lo eq and want to indicate by the button light if I'm above or below 50% (= 0)...
This doesn't work:
<button action="eq_high -5%" query="eq_high < 50%">
<button action="eq_high +5%" query="eq_high > 50%">
Nor does:
<button action="eq_high -5%" query="param_smaller 50%">
<button action="eq_high +5%" query="param_bigger 50%">
Nor does:
<button action="eq_high -5%" query="var_smaller 'eq_high' 50%">
<button action="eq_high +5%" query="var_greater 'eq_high' 50%">

Anyone know how to achieve this?

I'm a little rusty on code but does this work:

<button action="eq_high 50% ? on & eq_high -5% : off & eq_high -5%">
<button action="eq_high 50% ? on & eq_high +5% : off & eq_high +5%">

Thanks Dan, but that'll only light up when it's exactly at 50%...

<button action="eq_high 50% ? off & eq_high -5% : on & eq_high -5%">
<button action="eq_high 50% ? off & eq_high +5% : on & eq_high +5%">

Just reverse the on/off then, as above.

The problem is the interval. It's supposed to light up from 0-50%, not only at 50%...

query="param_bigger 50% eq_high"
or
query="param_bigger eq_high 50%"
or
query="param_smaller 50% eq_high"
or
query="param_smaller eq_high 50%"
or
query="param_bigger 0.5 eq_high"
or
query="param_bigger eq_high 0.5"
or
query="param_smaller 0.5 eq_high"
or
query="param_smaller eq_high 0.5"

ALL the above queries should work.
Of course, half of them will provide the opposite result from what you ask (they will turn the led on when EQ is lower than 50%)
I just put them here as a demonstration of the possible syntax ways
