1. This is a tip that works for me. Depending upon how you learn best, it may or may not work for you. First to learn to navigate in Logos, you need a commitment to learn and a willingness to spend some time each day learning. Take for example the Factbook which has a variable set of sections that work in different ways. I use the Help document to get the basis for an outline.
2. I use a tool that is specifically designed to handle outlines because I will be adding items and moving them around many times before I am satisfied with my results. This is my initial cut from the Help document. When I run into Sections not in the Help document, I add them to my outline and post a report in the forums of missing documentation. https://community.logos.com/forums/p/127046/826539.aspx#826539 serves as an example.
3. I then take a single section and hover over, click on or drag anything that looks like it might possibly do something. In the Info section the only thing I find that does anything is the speaker icon which pronounces the term. Well for some reason Jerusalem doesn't get a speaker icon .. yup, another error report.
4. So I add the action to my outline. Because I want to distinguish items that open a new panel and change my focus, I note that this is just a simple play not the opening of the pronunciation tool.
5. I usually do only one or two sections a day giving myself time to think about possibilities I may have missed and to give me time to internalize what I've learned so that I recognize it more quickly in another Section. I move on to media and explore what happens when I probe the thumbnails - mouse over (hover) gives me the title of the media.
6. Clicking on an image opens it in Visual copy. So I try drag-and-drop and click-shift as options that often allow be to control where an item opens or to force it to open in floating window ...
7. Then I starting investigating what happens if the image has a start function, or looks like an interactive, or a map ... I explore different Factbook entries for different types of thumbnails - documenting any differences. Now I likely won't hit them all, but for the next few weeks, I'll keep my eyes open for images types that I've not accounted for.
8. If I have vague memories of tips on the topic, I've check the tips to make sure I didn't forget anything. But I remember that someone did teach me a new trick after this tip was posted.
9. Ah, what I had forgotten and didn't find in exploration was the F7 trick for text comparison - or a quick peek at the text without opening the resource. True F7 won't work on images but I know there are references in other sections e.g. Events.
10. So here is the expanded outline for the Media and Event Sections - note I use all capitals to make the new panels (tools, resources ...) more obvious. Note how I document the prebuilt commands in the sections. Note also that I don't document the expand/contract functions - they are ubiquitous and not navigational.
11. The tool that I used for the outline allows me to view the data as a mind map as well. I find that I catch missing functions that are repetitive better visually.
12. Each time I find a new action that generates results, I go back through the previous Sections to see if I might have missed it in other contexts.
13. Every time I think I have all the actions identified, Logos changes the behavior or someone in the forum provides a cool shortcut I didn't know ...
Okay, folks, in these 3 sections, have I missed anything?
