Hi everyone, I'm trying to derive the equations of motion of a scalar field with a potential V(ϕ), S:=g(12gμνμϕνϕ+V)d4x; however when I compute the variational derivative of the action with respect to ϕ the potential does not appear (due to property V::Depends::{x}, only allow to make objects implicitly dependent on the coordinates). Is there any property in Cadabra which Makes an object explicitly dependent on other objects, like V(ϕ)?

Thank you !!
