Topic: Wish for quick_filters to be referenced by name, and More quick_filters buttons
Wish to be able to reference a quick_filter by its name, (in addition to by its reference number).

like:
quick_filter 'Played'

in addition to:
quick_filter 15

since the latter causes all scripts using/calling quick_filter 15 to need updating, if say quick_filter 6 is removed. (also there is no easy way to re-insert quick_filter 6, so that all subsequent quick_filters keep the same reference number.)

(note there may need a check added that all filters have unique names, when they are being created, or maybe not.. as it would be quickly corrected as one realized that more then one quick_filter was being activated)

-----------------------
I love the quick_filters, and maybe use them too much.. and would also love a way see (have access) to more of the buttons. It appears that 15 a practical limit, and 19 a hard limit (with no side panels open). And having access to them by scripting them to Lauchpad buttons.. has the issue of all LaunchPad scripts needing a change/update, if even one quick_filter is removed.



----------------------------------
And is there a way to mod the skin, to allow for more quick_filter buttons, (or a scroll feature) etc?

And Wish 2:
To have a way to view more quick_filter buttons from the skin.

You can access the quick filter by the actual filter
quick_filter "Already Played = 1"
for example
