I just need some simple substraction but Tulip will always rewrite my expression into this convoluted mess…
Why?

Hi @sebme,
what is the original you typed in, which is messed up?
What I see:
- there is no need for parenthesis a-b-c is the same as ((a-b)-c)
- the editor always removes all line breaks and double white spaces
- the Names are just longer than the width of the editor; thats why it adds the word wraps. It tries to break at a white space (after “Table”) but if not possible it just breaks in the middle of the word.
you are actually doing a check if a - b - c - d - e not equals 0
It is also the same as a != b + c + d + e
What the Expression editor does is only cosmetically bad. I
If there is more that that, you should shere your input (how you expect it).
That is a good one right there: there is no need for parenthesis.
But that is exactly what the editor makes out of it after it is saved.
What I originally entered was: a-b-c-d-e != 0
