"next article" function in Bible

Reading in LEB.  click "next article" and it instead takes me to "next chapter."  Consistently.  I would think in a Bible, "next article" would be that Bible's pericope, would it not?  We already have "chapter" option.  We don't need it a second time under a different name . .. .

 

Thanks!  :)

    Edit:  Next 'Article' should jump to next heading or pericope, as you expect, however it doesn't seem to be working in all Bibles. I tried in the NIV ESV, and it is working there. I'm not sure if this is limited to Bibles with pericope sets, but both the ESV and NASB95, which also have pericope sets, aren't working the same. I will report this.

    Another option: I was able to accomplish this with a specific term used in a pericope, using a visual filter and the 'heading' search field. For example, with the LEB opened, I opened a new visual filter document and typed heading:Jesus in the Find box, then chose a highlighter from the Formatting box. I was then able to choose 'Filter Highlight' from the LEB's Next drop-down to navigate to the next pericope/heading with 'Jesus' highlighted.

    Thank you again, Melissa.  Yes, I would think each pericope would be equivalent to "article" within a Bible resource, provided they are sectioned by pericopes.  MAN, you worked hard on the workaround!  Thanks!
