Hi Ali, I went into the GRC file (in gnuradio/gr-filter/grc) and looked that up: It calls block::declare_sample_delay
https://www.gnuradio.org/doc/doxygen/classgr_1_1block.html#acad5d6e62ea 885cb77d19f72451581c2 (this documentation isn't great and doesn't really say what declare_sample_delay actually does – we should probably improve that) The effect of that is that the block itself sees input tags shifted by the delay, and thus, they are also propagated through the filter with that delay. Makes a lot of sense if you, for example, have something like power_detector_of_kinds_that_tags_start_of_transmission -> linear_phase_low_pass_filter -> more_processing and want the "more_processing", whatever that is, to see the tags the power detector inserted at "logically" the right position, i.e. shifted by the constant group delay of your linear phase filter.
