Labelling and Searching question

Martin Folley

Hi.

I am experimenting with labelling but I cannot seem to get anything useful to work.

I would like to have have a highlighter style that can easily be applied to my resources which implies a particular topic, which in turn then allows me to easily find that topic again. For example, as I read I may come across a snippet related to the topic of Faith. I simply want to highlight it as such, and then find that (and other snippets later).

I have tried  style like this:

I can find later if I try {Label Topic}

I cannot find it if I try {Label Topic WHERE Type= "Faith"}

The Logos video found here https://logos.wistia.com/medias/j9f991ua03 seems to emphasise the need for speech marks around Faith, and a space after the equals. This seems a little pedantic (read not easy) but it does not seem to work with any combination. Where am I going wrong?

Ideally I would like it to be able to find my highlight using "<Topic Faith>" since this pops up in that list of options in the search box (and I am trying to find some use for that list of options ... )

I have also learnt (after much experimentation) that annotations have to be removed and re-applied if I want changes to the palette to be reflected ... I can understand that ... I have removed and re-applied the style here before searching ... 

Thanks.

It looks as if you applied the concept faith rather than the text faith - try <Concept Faith> instead of faith or did you define the attribute as Concept?

Ideally I would like it to be able to find my highligh t using "<Topic Faith>"

But that would pick up Faithlife coding rather than yours - I get 25 results in 20 resources and I didn't create the label. I personally avoid using terms that I think may have been used by Logos unless I know that Logos will process them like their own labels e.g. Sermons
