Calculated field , lookup , alias - processiong

Hello

Does calculated field can pull from other calculated filed ? (in the search it is working like that but if I set up both in Settings-Fields- Calculated fileds is not).

Thank you

Calculated fields are created independent of each other, see here and search for "Examples demonstrating that all calculated fields are determined independently of others".
On the whole, "Calculated field evaluation takes place after search-time field extraction and field aliasing, but before derivation of lookup fields." (same source).
