What do the parentheses do when adding criteria to a smart group?



What's an example of where you would want them and where you would not?

A quick answer is that it allows you to perform more complicated queries and group criteria together.



Now we can do stuff like:



(A and 😎 or (C and (D or E))



...knowing the elements nested inside parenthesis are processed as separate units.



Previously, some queries would be impossible or not intuitive to configure. What would "A and B or C and D or E" do without those parenthesis? Which operations would be processed first? Beats me!
