Get Dual Pane mode?

Is it possible to return the current mode in scripting? Is dual pane toggled on or off? I've tried returning the get("Item",1) commands. But even if dual pane is toggled off, Pane 2 still returns the path.
I'm looking to script turning on Dual Pane if it's off and setting both paths.
I know toggling it is #800; //Toggle Dual Panes
But before toggling, I need to know if it's on or off. Else if I #800; I may be turning it off.

Hi and welcome,
I added something experimentally. In the next BETA try this:

Works Perfectly! You rock!
Code: Select all
$p = get("#800", "DP", "SP");
if $p == "SP" {
#800; //Toggle Dual Panes
}
By the way, thank you for your ultra-quick responses. What a great product, and seeing that support is awesome for XYplorer makes me that much more confident in my purchase!

Tip: If you don't need the labels for display you can also use this shorter version:
Code: Select all
if get("#800") == "1" {
#800; //Toggle Dual Panes
}

Nice... you're right. I didn't need the defined variable. I love efficient code.

Whoops, I showed you bad (but working) syntax. The expression after
if *should* be in parentheses:
Code: Select all
if (get("#800") == "1") {
#800; //Toggle Dual Panes
}

Mine was working without them. But single pane = "0", dual pane = "1". I wanted to insure dual pane was active.

If only we had a not-operator then you could make it:

Try next version.
(No time to document it...)
PS: All this should work in 9.70.0005... looks like I got it.
Code: Select all
if (!get('#800')) {
#800;
}
if (! get('#800')) {
#800;
}
if (not get('#800')) {
#800;
}
if (not not not get('#800')) {
#800;
}

That's why we LOVE Don and XY SO much! Sounds like a good quote for Don to use on site if possible.

I had expected that this would also work:
Code: Select all
$a = 'a';
if (! "$a" Like "") {
echo 'hi';
}
Not a deal breaker since it seems to work with parens:
Code: Select all
$a = 'a';
if (! ("$a" Like "")) {
echo 'hi';
}
