HI Aaron,

that sounds good, glad to hear you got cross-stage calculations to work.

Unfortunately program indicator expressions do not support nested
parentheses/functions - we plan to develop a new version of our program
indicator parser which will be more flexible in this regard.

regards,

Lars
