Hidden feature in Smartlist-Editor / OR-Rules
« on: November 30, 2008, 03:00:13 am »

When playing with my old smartlists I had a problem with my rules containing an 'OR'-rule.

But there is a hidden feature at the beginning and end of the rule-line:
Just click in the space and you will get a '(' or '['.

Great! I just want to share this because it is really hard to find.

You're right. I just found it—by accident—a few days ago. Maybe we should start a Most Difficult to Find Essential Hidden Feature topic. ;D

There were some topics in the past where users (including me) didn't know about this useful and easy to use feature. Perhaps there should be an empty button or a drop downbox...

It's a neat solution to a complicated problem (or / and) but it is a little hidden.

And is that a modified Noire?  The drop arrows look funny.

It is! If it would be easy to see that there is some clickable area it would be neater ;)

Yes, it's a modified Noire.
It's BlueNoire (if I remember right Deivit was the author, thank you for that).
But the drop shadow is the same as in Noire, isn't it?
