'Bible Word Study' Opens in Wrong Pane (Since Upgrading to Logos 6)

In the last few days I updated from Logos 4 to Logos 6. Before the update, when I clicked on a lemma in exegetical guide, it would open up a "Bible Word Study" on that word in a new window in that same pane (the far left one in this case). Since updating, however, whenever I click on a lemma in exegetical guide, it opens up a "Bible Word Study" on that word in a different pane, in this case the top-middle one, where my Bibles go.

Is there a way to choose which pane BWS will open in? It's no good to have it open over the Bible (as that's what I'm studying), but at the moment it seems like my only option is to manually move the Bible Word Study across every time, which is redundant and a waste of time.

Thanks in advance if anyone can help!

Welcome Ben

choose your Windows where to go, klick on the Book Cover and the above left Side of this Windows and click "Sent Hyperlink here" that will sent every click on Links (like BWS) to this Window.

There's no way to specify which pane a resource will open into (Sascha has misunderstood the purpose of Send Hyperlinks here - it directs links to a specific resource, not a specific pane).

Logos tries to intelligently work out the best place to open a pane. Most of the time it does a pretty good job, but as it can't read our minds, it's not perfect. One assumption it makes is that you won't want to hide the pane you're currently working in, so it will tend to open links in a different pane 90% of the time.

What you can do is drag links instead of clicking on them. That way you can have the exactly where you want. It's slower than just clicking, but quicker than clicking then dragging.

It is probably just coincidence - unless you can give a specific example.

Thanks for the quick response Mark. That is unfortunate, but dragging the link does at least speed things up a bit (I didn't know you could do that before). Thanks for your help!
