For me it is a great Idea to have an advanced search domain builder. I have seen in other software (a school administration software in Germany) that this function is additionally provided to a simple search form. The school software has also a simple save mechanism to store the search criterias under a certain name. This name is given as a single click link, which provides the search results and fill in the stored search attributes into the advanced search form. In Tryton we can divide the search form into a 'search' tab, which provides functionality like the actual search, and a tab for 'advanced' search, where to build a sophisticated search domain. -- [email protected] mailing list
