So I am working on a skin based on the Pioneer CDJ3000, I have some panels but when I select the panel the button wont light up when the panel is on, but will light fine when I hover over it. I would like the button to stay lit up to show the panel is on.
button define:
<define class="screen_button">
<off color="#2c2c2c" shape="square" radius="0"/>
<over color="#6bb6e8" shape="square" radius="0"/>
<selected color="#078ce7" shape="square" radius="0"/>
<overselected color="#6bb6e8" shape="square" radius="0"/>
<down color="#078ce7" shape="square" radius="0"/>
<text color="#ffffff" colorover="#ffffff" colorselected="#ffffff" colordown="#ffffff" align="center"/>
</define>
Button code:
<button class="screen_button" action="skin_panel 'ls_beatloop' on ? skin_panel 'main_wave_left' on : skin_panel 'ls_beatloop' on ">
<pos x="+632" y="+4"/>
<size width="50" height="40"/>
<text size="13" align="center" weight="" format="BEAT\nLOOP"/>
</button>

because
- they may be both on
- there is no final state
also note taking very care about how final state is, no need to force state :
<button class="screen_button" action="skin_panel 'ls_beatloop' ? skin_panel 'main_wave_left' on & skin_panel 'ls_beatloop' off : skin_panel 'main_wave_left' off & skin_panel 'ls_beatloop' on">
- they may be both on
- there is no final state
<off color="#2c2c2c" shape="square" radius="0"/>
<over color="#6bb6e8" shape="square" radius="0"/>
<selected color="#078ce7" shape="square" radius="0"/>
<overselected color="#6bb6e8" shape="square" radius="0"/>
<down color="#078ce7" shape="square" radius="0"/>
<text color="#ffffff" colorover="#ffffff" colorselected="#ffffff" colordown="#ffffff" align="center"/>
</define>
Button code with debug:
<button class="screen_button" action="skin_panel 'ls_beatloop' ? off & skin_panel 'main_wave_left' on & skin_panel 'ls_beatloop' off : on & skin_panel 'ls_beatloop' on & skin_panel 'main_wave_left' off">
<pos x="+6" y="+4"/>
<size width="50" height="40"/>
<text size="13" align="center" weight="" format="BEAT` skin_panel ls_beatloop`\nLOOP` skin_panel main_wave_left`"/>
</button>
also note taking very care about how final state is, no need to force state :
<button class="screen_button" action="skin_panel 'ls_beatloop' ? skin_panel 'main_wave_left' on & skin_panel 'ls_beatloop' off : skin_panel 'main_wave_left' off & skin_panel 'ls_beatloop' on">

Thankyou for your response, that has kind of worked, however the button lights up when the opposite panel is on.

On skin it's actually better to separate the action of the button from the "state" of the button for complex cases.
Like this:
<button action="cycle 'MyVar' 5" query="var_bigger 'MyVar' 2" />
That's a dummy example of course.
However it shows the main idea. Instead of having one complex action checking the value of 'MyVar' 6 times and using multiple queries to set both the var and the visual of the button, we just separate them.
