Default Field IF

Indeed, as you have found, to create nested fields (fields containing other
fields) you must insert the field delimiters, { }, directly into the
document using a keyboard shortcut. Similarly, you can't create nested
fields from within the Field dialog box.

...

i tried edit my prev post, but it cannot save it ..

I am back with answer to my question. The mistake was, that the text
with braces ({page}) was typed from keyboard. And this need to be
inserted from field.

The right process is:
ctrl+F9
type IF and space
menu field {numpages}
space space 1 space "
menu field {page}
/
menu field {numpages}
space ""

Result is:
{if {numpages} 1 "{page}/{numpages}" ""}
The braces in this sentence are visible with dotted border.
I made a screenshot, in attachment.

Thank you and bye!
