40.0 Beta 3: New Bug in PBB Resource Linking?
I haven't used PBB in a little while, so I'm not sure if this is a new bug or not. Here's my post from the other forum that I posted before I realized I was on Beta: I am trying to update the Denver Annotated Bibliographies, and one of the things I'm doing this time around is updating all resource linkis to the new URL…

Constant Sync Error (38.0 Beta 2 38.0.548, WIN 11)
For the past 3 weeks, when the Desktop app launches and when it tries to sync, it results with the the red exclamation mark in the sync icon and the tooltip message, "An error occurred during synchronization, click to try again". Since no one else has reported this problem, I figure it must be my system. To get the results…

Bug: Books Search not switching to precise mode for a search in quotation marks

Multiple Book View keyboard shortcut not working
As of yesterday, I can no longer use Command-Shift-M to toggle on and off the Multiple Book View. This is frustrating because the new tool bar makes one go through a number of clicks to toggle the view off and on. Please bring back the keyboard shortcut. I'm on a Mac but I believe its Ctrl-Shift-M on a PC.

BUGS in Smart Search
1) When I include a Greek word in a Smart Bible search, my search is automatically changed to a Precise search. Search does not alert me to the fact that it has switched to Precise search, but it does so nonetheless. The release notes say this will only happen when the "entire query is in Greek or Hebrew." Smart All search…

Sermon Builder "Improved Passage Blocks" Comments
Logos Bible Study 38.0 Beta 1 38.0.502 (Update channel: beta) I REALLY like this idea! I never liked how passage blocks changed to quotes before when I wanted to bold some words for emphasis. I also REALLY like the "Go to Passage" option, which was sorely lacking before. Looks like this works for copy/pasting quotes from…

Suggestion: Adjustment for minimum number of highlights for "popular highlights"
In its current form, the Popular Highlights feature is far too sensitive to be useful. It appears to work with as few as 5 people marking a book. This can create clutter, such as the following paragraph, where nearly every sentence is underlined. I have 2 suggestions for how to make this display of popular highlights more…

Will Smart Bible Searching be included in Inline Search?
With Logos 40 introducing a smart mode for Bible Searches, will this be extended to an Inline Search of a Bible? More generally, will it be extended to Inline Search in other books? (I can see less of a need for it there)

BUG: On/Off Toggle for Multiple Book View Unchanged

Searching results vs. Factbook results from books in my library problem

Why doesn't textual history know to switch to LXX
I tested with the NABRE to see if Logos recognized LXX in a book that is partially Hebrew and Aramaic based, then I tried NRSV to see if Logos recognized LXX in a pure case. It flunked both tests by failing to provide original language. Come on - you had to know I'd test this.

Why was Sacra Pagina replaced by the Lexham textual notes
Beta 2 added Lexham Textual Notes in the middle of my bibles, before my commentaries in the priority list. This caused my Sacra Pagina priority to be ignored. I removed LTN from the priority list, tried again and Logos still insisted on overriding me. This is not acceptable … or even close to it.

Download link for Logos 40 Beta 1
Good afternoon! I was on Logos 40 Beta 1 on Mac M3 (ARM). I could not open the app—it would provide the splash screen but not open the app itself.

Some thoughts on the Sermon Assistant from a Catholic perspective
At this time, I use the homily builder solely for lectionary based Bible studies. The Sermon Assistant so far does not impress me for homilies. In short, it goes against my basic understanding of a homily - the breaking open of scripture to feed the assembly. The Sermon Assistant is using artificial human intelligence to…

Bugs?? "Add Parallel text" and "Interlinear"
