Is it possible to apply to different highlighting commands to the same visual filter?

 

For instance, I can create a visual filter for @CLI, I want the results to be displayed, both in large text and orange foreground.

    Yes, two options: create one highlighting style with all desired highlights (e.g. large text with orange font) OR create visual filters that can combine highlighting.

    For example, my Logos Greek Morphology visual filter for moods has font styling (font color) and an image (centered above) for participles using a custom highlighting style, which can be combined with visual filter for tenses (background colors).  Look at surpasses in Philippians 4:7 that has highlighting combined from four visual filters (matching various morphological values, including singular and active voice):

    Note: imperative mood has a bold font with yellow glow for highlighting style.  Indicative mood also has bold font, but does not have a glow color.

    Personally added another Highlighting Palette for Conjunctions, created styles for each conjunction type, then created a Visual Filter for each type.  My work in progress has customized two conjunction styles: @CLI has Bold font plus a superscript image before while @CLN has a superscript image centered (similar to "+" sign).

    Personally have more customizing to do for conjunction highlighting styles.  Logical Emphatic seems appropriate for bold font.

    I was afraid that was going to be the answer. I am working with conjunctions as well and your approach has some definite benefits, but something simpler will work for me. My primary goal is to be able to quickly show differences in conjunctions as I teach from my iPad, so I have created a VF that puts all conjunctions into large text then a separate VF that color codes the conjunctions into major categories. Putting all of that into a single VF would have been nice, but definitely not that important.

    Thanks for your help.

    When they do sync visual filters to the iPad I hope they provide a means of turning each one off or on.  This would greatly increase their usefulness, especially in teaching situations.
