I’ve got a problem with the „if“-expression as it isn’t working any more. For example I use for the file caption in the theatre view the following expression: If([Number Plays]>0, ✔ ,) [.title]. But MC returns for all files a checkmark even if a file has never been played. To narrow down the problem I replaced the [number played] field by other fields and checked it also in a standard view. In all cases I got the same result, MC always returns the value for the “true”-parameter.

Any help on this?

I think you need:
If(Compare([Number Plays], >, 0), foo, bar)

It also looks like the popup tooltip for Compare(...) lists broken examples, which is a bug.

Thanks for your help. Now, everything is back in order

Something has changed in recent builds to create errors in if() expressions. Have worked fine for at least a month.  Now in process of correcting logic that previously worked.

Perhaps somebody might tell me why this expression no longer works. I use it in theatre view to organise my files by decacde.

if(isempty([year]),?,mid([year],0,3)0s

Unfortunately I don't really understand how these expressions work and borrowed it from somebody else.

The If() isn't closed. It should be: if(isempty([year]),?,mid([year],0,3))0s

Recent changes have required the program to be less forgiving about such errors.

Thank you!
