As I think Boris has mentioned, that would probably be difficult to achieve with current NFS implementation. Anyway, I think I would oppose to such a wish because it would reduce the possibilities of what you can do with filters right now. > 2) It should be possible to create a purely organizational container > level (sub)filter where processing of filters further down the list > occurs automatically if none of the subfilters yielded an action. If I have understood correctly what you want to do I would also oppose to this wish because I think there are ways of doing what you want. They way that things are now that processing of a filter depends _only_ on the previous filters triggering or not and on the "continue processing" status of previous filters is the correct way of doing things. Making the processing of a filter depend on the triggering or not of filters in a lower hierarchy would break the whole purpose of the hierarchy structure. Now, I said I think you can achieve what you want without any changes to the way things are now. Boris has already pointed the use of parameters but, apparently, there is some bug in the use of parameters. I don't know, I have not tested. But maybe it is also that Boris has suggested the use of parameters in a slightly different way that I would do it. What I would do is: Filter A (set to continue processing) Sub-Filter A1 (whatever action + set parameter P) Sub-Filter A2 (whatever action + set parameter P) Filter B (whatever condition + parameter P NOT set) Sub-Filter B1 Sub-Filter B2 I there is a bug in the use of parameters, then a I would use a colour group instead. I have not tested but it should work. -- Best regards, Miguel A.
