Default Toolbar buttons that follow item settings

Hello everybody,

Is it possible to have toolbar buttons that visualy follow the state of some item settings? For example, I'd like to have a button called "Loop item source". When I select an item, the visual state (highlighted or not) would reflect if the 'Loop item source' item setting for this item is on or off. And of course I could change the state with this button. The same could be applied to the "Play all takes" item setting.

This would solve the absence of these settings in the regular item buttons (mute, lock, fx, ...)

Thanks in advance and have a nice day!
Marc

Default

the problem is, for example, loop item source is an action, but an icon png for it will only show the normal three states for the icon
normal, roll over, clicked on
when clicked it will just return to the normal state so it won't 'follow' the condition of any given item.

Some one might be able to create a lua script that would do that but I'd think it would be more trouble than it's worth...

seem much easier to just call up the item properties window and move from item to item and see if it is looped or not
