RE: Conditional text does not exclude correctly

Unfortunately, I have never been able to figure out
how to get conditional text to work as a logical AND 
condition (show me only the stuff that is tagged with
X *and also* tagged with Y). It would require a more 
complex Show/Hide dialog, since there are times when 
I want the logical OR behavior (show me anything tagged
with X or with Y or with Z). I would love to be able
to get fancy with the symbolic logic (show me X or Y 
but not Z), but in 5.5.x it isn't possible. This is 
right up at the top of my enhancement wish list.

We have LOTS of conditional tags because of this 
situation: 

HelpOnly, PrintOnly {all variants}
A_HelpOnly, A_PrintOnly, Ax {print & help, A variants}
B_HelpOnly, B_PrintOnly, Bx {print & help, B variants}

And we have TWELVE variants....
Plus the other stuff like "comment", "draft", "delayed",
"inserted", "deleted", and that list goes on.........

Does ANYONE know how to change the color of multiple-
condition text to something other than bright magenta?!?

Wanting to strangle whomever picked bright magenta,
