I seem to recall a way to display more than one version when working with Aland's Synopsis of the Four Gospels. In a perfect world, I'd stack the NA28 on top with the ESV below. Can that be done?

Thanks.

    I don't know, but opening a duplicate tab and setting a different translation, then linking them, works okay (it only moves when you change sections, though, not verse by verse).

    Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

    Thank you Justin and M.J. Those are workable solutions, though not really optimal. They could use to beef up the Aland Synopsis a bit.

    I think with linked panels it should work reasonably well as all you have that is "extra" is some panel headings ...

    I think it is past time for a Greek, aligned, complete, and fully functional edition of the Aland Synopsis Quattuor Evangeliorum.

    1. "Greek" - enough said.
    2. "Aligned" - with the parallels aligned spatially, rather than "run-on" in the columns as in the current version of the Aland Synopsis. (The Burton - Goodspeed Harmony could be set to aligned Greek back in Logos 4 or 5. But alas! That capability has been taken away and I know not where it has been laid.)
    3. "Complete" - with all the marginal notes and front matter from the most recent German Bible Society print edition.
    4. "Fully functional" - in the Logos standard, including the ability to highlight parallels in the various columns.

    I don't recall any function being removed from L4 or L5. It sounds as if you should be in a request for a new resource (the most current with marginalia et. al.) and a new function - the equivalent of sympathetic highlighting for harmonies/parallel resources.
