Language selection in Books section
We need better control over the languages in which the bookstore books appear. I certainly am willing to consider a German or French book that is seminal in its field but Korean, Japanese, Russian … are an annoying waste of space, especially when the 2nd book in the list. What I would like best, although I suspect it won't…

Why is there a discover section? A case study ...
I rarely use Logos topics or preaching themes as they often merge different concepts or narrow/broaden the topics I wish to consider. Here is an example: It appears that if I wish to consider the Nativity, I must use the much broader topic of incarnation. If I chose the Jesus' Incarnation theological theme, it is narrowly…

Isn't is time to provide definitions for the book types
I know … the request to know what the categories actual mean/are intended to mean has aged gracefully like a good cheese … but it is time for Logos quit stalling. If you don't know what their definitions are you should not be expanding their use; if you know what they are, tell us. We need to know where to look for books…

Bug: Tab Menu Bar Does Not Scale Properly
I have a large screen, so I will often work with 3 columns in my workspace. However, when I want to copy something from the internet into my sermon, the easiest thing in Windows is to drag the Logos window to one side so it snaps to half the screen. Unfortunately, when I do this, with the new menus, depending on the width…

Logos Application Crash when applying visual filters
Logos crashes every time when I try to change visual filters from Top Bibles to anything else.

Ref.ly links in Microsoft Office on Windows
Beginning in v39 Beta 2, we added support to Logos to open ref.ly links directly without opening a browser tab. To do that, we registered Logos in Windows' "Apps for websites" function, which is Microsoft's recommended approach for tools to directly open links that would otherwise go to your web browser. Unfortunately, a…

Information and Prioritisation tabs do not toggle in the Library sidebar

Tagging Greek words with multiple roots in the New Testament
Logos is inconsistent about the tagging of the roots of Greek words in the Greek New Testament and (as a result) the reverse interlinear Bibles. Some Greek words come from multiple roots. For example, ἐκβάλλω ("cast out") comes from the roots ἐκ ("out") and βάλλω ("throw"). Similarly ἀναγινώσκω ("read") comes from ἀνα…

Remove Highlighting
Using the latest beta on PC - - - Any help would be greatly appreciated. Is there no longer a quick way to remove highlights? The only way I can find is to open the Notebooks tool, find the note, and then delete it. I'm sure there used to be a quicker way but I cannot find it now.

Suggestion: Factbook option to not include resources
I don't like that the Factbook offers me a list of numerous resources, most of which are in the Bookstore. I would like a option to not include resources or at the minimum not include resources that I do not own (i.e. in the Bookstore). This could be in the Panel menu as an option "Include resources in Bookstore".…

Auto-Detect Verses Requires Wi-Fi in Sermon Builder
I took my computer work on my sermon at a place with no Wi-Fi.

clicking on notes won't open/update
I have notes tied to the Revised Common Lectionary. Often when I click on a "there's a note here" note icon that I placed there (in RCL), nothing will happen.

typing in date in RCL doesn't always (or often) work
1-2 years ago, when I typed "today" or a date "July 17" it would go to that date right away. This is in the date window or search bar - whatever it's called, in the RCL (Revised Common Lectionary). Today works sometimes, sometimes the date does (typing in July 17 when today is July 10), but more often than not it doesn't.
