Trying to compare numbers to show specific text - kamcknig - 2014-07-17 Hello everyone. I'm trying to show the number of unwatched episodes if there are any, and if there aren't any then I want to show nothing. I'm not sure if I'm doing it right though. Well obviously I'm not or I wouldn't be here. I have a variable in one xml liek this: Code: <variable name="ShowUnwatched"> And then I'm using that variable for a label like so: Code: <label>$VAR[ShowUnwatched]</label> It only shows the blank though and never the number of unwatched episodes. Is this an incorrect way of using the compare functions? Ok, I tried using StringCompare instead with this: Code: <variable name="ShowUnwatched"> And that worked so I guess that means the returned value from Property(UnWatchedEpisodes) is a string and not a number... weird... except that the top item that says "up one level" also now has the "unwatched" text which I of course don't want. Any idea how to fix that? |
