    Question

    Can the New UI be configured with multiple different Complex Search Lines in Advanced Search, as in Classic UI?

    Answer

    Not really.

    Multiple Complex Search Lines are possible.

    However, multiple different Complex Search Lines are *not* currently possible in the New UI.

     

    The New UI repeats the *first* Complex Search line each time a Complex Search Line is added.

    The Classic UI allowed for different choices in each Complex Search line, which is not possible in the mechanism used by the New UI. 

     

    The New UI code is specifically written to select 'any' if it exists. Only if 'any' is not an option will it choose the default, or the first option, if there is no default.
