test2_mtr stipulates [ SF pres ] while the MRS you showed exhibits

Sorry that was a stupid editing error in the mail buffer. <br>
<br>
I tested with both TENSE pres and SF prop. <br>
<br>
But thanks for pointing this out. <br>

They don't and the values are restricted enough to not let this
happen. <br>

Yes I did...<br>

I am currently starting a new transfer grammar (frde) that
builds on an older baby-MT pair (ende). For some strange reason,
I cannot get a rule to match that specifies an event type for
ARG0 , or, more interesting a variable property like TENSE or
SF.
<br>
Matching against (string) predicates, however, tends to work.
Also, matching on x or variable properties like [NUM sg] poses
no problem.
<br>
<br>
Here's a minimal pair:
<br>
<br>
<br>
test1_mtr :=
<br>
monotonic_mtr &
<br>
[INPUT.RELS <[ARG0 x & [NUM sg ]]>,
<br>
OUTPUT.RELS < +copy+ & [ARG0 [NUM pl]] >].
<br>
<br>

Should have been: <br>
<br>
test2_mtr :=
<br>
monotonic_mtr &
<br>
[INPUT.RELS <[ARG0 [SF prop ]]>,
<br>
OUTPUT.RELS < +copy+ & [ARG0 [SF ques]] >].<br>
<br>
Here's a screenshot showing what's used, what works and what doesn't
(test2_mtr is there but does not fire). <br>
<br>
So the problem is real! Any help is mostly appreciated because that
problem is crippling me at the moment. <br>

As far as I can tell from the LKB, the types and features are in
place!
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Please let me know whether you need any further details and
which.

PS: Why does Logon not delete the GEND feature?
