Hi,

The GUI display filter has an interesting but little-known (?) feature
to replace field values for the selected frame with the syntax
${<field>}, which I only learned about in bug #15504, and confused me at
first. This all happens before the _expression_ is compiled and is
different from display filter macros.

Does anyone know more about this? And where it is implemented in the GUI
code?
