dtpo 2.7.4.

  • shift + cmd + f
  • advanced…
  • select ‘word count’ in dropdown
  • ‘is less than’
  • textfield: 7500
  • click on the first plus button
  • select ‘word count’ in the first dropdown of the new row
  • ‘is greater than’
  • textfield: 500
  • OK
  • advanced…

now the row with the filter ‘is greater than’ is gone…

This is how the Smart Group criteria works. You can only fo this by added a sub-criteria group, holding the Option key to show the ellipsis button.

I agree-creating compound predicates is not as intuitive as it could be.
