Hello everyone, With the update to version 5.4, the “column expression” node has become legacy. It’s not a problem. I use the column expression a lot, and it might be the node I use the most for setting up rules. For me, one of the great advantages of the column expression is the ease of creating multiple columns or replacing values in multiple columns. However, in version 5.3, we have the new “expression” node. I thought about starting to learn how to use it, but to me, it seems like it doesn’t allow the creation of multiple columns in the same node. My question is: is that correct? If I want 10 columns, will I have to use 10 expression nodes? Best regards…

Hey there, learning the new Expressions node is a good idea as it sort of is the successor of Column Expressions. With 5.4 it also allows you to create multiple Expressions (i.e. multiple columns): [image] You just click on the Add new Expressions Button. Also it now allows you to reference a previously created expression in one that follows… that used to be one of the reasons I needed multiple column expressions nodes in the past…
