Expression Function Organization

Ignition

Hi all,

This is not a big deal, but I’ve been curious about it for a while. In the expression editor, in the function dropdown list, the functions are organized categorically. Most dataset related functions are in the “Advanced” category, but “Lookup” is in the “Logic” category.

Why is that? Is it related to the way that Lookup functions internally?

Was I the only one curious about this?

Anyway, thanks in advance!

The reason why is lost in the mists of time. Looking at the code, I can see it’s been like that since at least 2011.
