Would (field1 || field2) or ((field1) || (field2)) help solve the issue?

Yeah, I think I’ve had that one too. It seems that the type checking routines in the compiler doesn’t quite handle getters properly. It’s particularly annoying because once you get around the type checking, the code actually works just fine.

I’ve run into a similar problem before, except I don’t remember it being related to Booleans. I seem to remember it involved the compiler flipping out about passing a getter into a function which wanted a string datatype.

Have you reported this bug to MM?
