When to use the default combining method
The default combining method is appropriate for only two scenarios:
- You want the description as a whole to be true only if ALL the individual descriptors are true (this is the most common scenario); or
- You want the description as a whole to be true if AT LEAST ONE of the individual descriptors is true.
The default combining method uses:
- The boolean result for each individual descriptor (see Evaluation of individual descriptors).
- The value of the Inverse Descriptor option in each individual descriptor.
- The value of the Optional option in each individual descriptor.
- The default combining rule.
