Hiya, thanks for the reply.

First thing to note, is the buttons do NOT update the eq2.recent.ini file.

If you use the sliders or checkbuttons yourself and 'do not' click the
accept button. The effect still takes place, BUT the eq2.recent.ini file is
not update. It's not updated unless you click accept.

I did try with the two mentioned sliders included in the code and had the working properly, and it didn't change anything.
I also did try moving the boolean commands to different places, to adjust the order, but I coudln't see any change. But that doesnt' mean that I didn't won't come down that.
I'm not entirely clear on the order in which the command is executed.
I have know some code in the past exectutes from right to left, or left to right depending on the formating etc.. There is also a comment I read in the forums here about the execution of the code order.
I doing some more research today and my try and do some code tonight.
Of course I might just play, since I've not played the last two nights due to working on this.
I know we will all get it figured out eventually.
Honestly I've gotten a heck of alot further than I thought I would!
I'm sure we can expect a few mods coming out for this type of thing soon.

Another thing I was just looking at is that the eq2ui.mainhud_startbutton_xml is a child of the eq2ui_mainhud_xml parent.
BUT!!
the eq2ui_options_xml is a child of the eq2_ui_xml parents.
the eq2ui_options_xml is the one that contains the settings that appear after you click the eq2ui_startbutton_xml

So this may just be a simple case of having these buttons attached to the wrong place. I'm looking into this further today.

Thanks for the encouragement.
