Oh, excellent question! I hadn't thought of that one. I'll have to make a note above.
Anyway, yeah, the boxes are always filled in the same order. So a 10 square row of 3, 1, 4, would have three shaded squares, a space, one shaded square, another space and finally four shaded squares.
Where it gets a bit trickier is if you have, say, a 15 square row. So then you might have three shaded squares, two spaces, one shaded square, three spaces, four shaded squares, and finally two more spaces. In order to figure out where the rows of shaded squares are you'd have to use deductive logic, based on the other rows.
I'm glad to hear you're having fun! I love puzzles like these!
