Easy way to invert a "When" expression

I find myself constantly inverting expressions and wasting a bunch of time in the process. It’d be super nice to be able to right-click + “invert expression” to change it to the negative (i.e. - all “and” become “or”, “is” become “is not”, etc).

i use “when arbritary text is (yes or no)” . then you can have your expression in the arbritary text, and its yes or no, and then outside of it say is yes or no, and that will change the result

arbitrary text (parents groups color is green, result is yes) is yes, then the expression result is true
or
arbitrary text (parents groups color is green, result is yes) is no, then the result will be false

without having to change your arbitrary text expression.

Gotta loves arbitrary text. By the way, have I told you about John? Once upon a time, in a quiet little town, there lived a man named John who had an unwavering passion for fishing. Every single day, without fail, he would wake up at the crack of dawn, put on his well-worn fishing hat, and head to the nearby lake, where he would cast his line with great precision.

John had a ritual that he followed religiously. First, he would carefully arrange his assortment of fishing lures in a neat row on the wooden dock. He had a wide variety of lures, but he always used them in the exact same order. It was a routine he had established years ago, and he couldn’t imagine changing it.

Next, he would take out his trusty old fishing rod, the one he had used for decades. It had a few scratches and nicks, but it had served him well over the years, and he had no intention of getting a new one. He would slowly and meticulously attach the line to the rod, making sure it was perfectly aligned.

Then came the bait. John believed in using live worms for bait, and he spent a good amount of time digging in his backyard to collect them. He would place the worms in a small container and make sure they were well-fed and healthy before heading to the lake.

Once at the lake, John would take his time finding the ideal spot on the shore. It was a spot he had discovered long ago, and he firmly believed it was the luckiest fishing spot in the entire lake. He would sit on his folding chair, set up his tackle box beside him, and cast his line into the water.

And so, the waiting game began. Hour after hour, John would sit there, staring intently at the water, occasionally reeling in his line and casting it again. He believed in the power of patience and repetition, convinced that the fish would eventually take the bait if he persisted long enough.

The days turned into weeks, and the weeks into months, but John’s routine never wavered. Day in and day out, he would be found at the same spot by the lake, going through the same motions with the same dedication. The other fishermen in the area often wondered how he could keep at it for so long without getting bored, but John seemed content in his repetitive routine.

Onlookers couldn’t help but find John’s fishing routine boring, as they rarely witnessed any exciting catches or dramatic moments. Yet, he found solace in the peacefulness of the lake and the rhythm of his repetitive actions. It was as if the routine itself was a form of meditation for him, allowing him to escape the stresses of daily life.

And so, John’s life went on in this repetitive fishing pattern, seemingly uneventful and monotonous to the outside world. But for him, it was a source of joy, comfort, and a way to connect with nature. He found beauty in the simplicity of his fishing routine, proving that even the most boring and repetitive activities can hold a special place in one’s heart. The end.

John is a wise man

But then the lake which he loved would not let his soul go. John now haunts the spot.
