Optional hiding of form sidebar button

Hi all,
I am trying to show custom report visible only on cash statement.
Other views using 'account.bank.statement' should not allow access to this button.
I have defined both report and sidebar button action in xml. Here is button action definition:

Code:

<record id="test_cash_statement_report_value_id" model="ir.values">
   <field name="name">test_account_cash_statement_report</field>
   <field name="key2">client_print_multi</field>
   <field eval="1" name="object"/>
   <field name="value" val="'ir.actions.report.xml,'+str(test_cash_statement_report_id)"/>
   <field name="key">action</field>
   <field name="model">account.bank.statement</field>
</record>

So, does anyone know what should I do to make this button show only on cash statement form?
I was thinking about something like

Code:

<field name="attrs">"{'invisible':[('journal_id.type','!=','cash')]}"</field>

but couldn't find any reference...

You can add button that calls report to your form view and just restrict it's visibility as usual

Thanks for your reply tool,
I was aware of that possibility, I just really, really wanted to use the sidebar

.
By now I have 2 reports for cash statement, therefore - 2 buttons on the form.
Any more reports means adding as many buttons.
Anyway, having possibility to change attributes like visibility on sidebar based on condition would be very welcome, especially because you could set different sidebar buttons based on e.g. selected journal for that record, selected type of partner, etc.
Unfortunatelly, I will for now have to put this on form, as you suggested
