resources will not open where I want them to

OK, so I have a lot of resources open on my dock. Therefore, I opened up a floating window to search another angle of the same subject. However, when I click the results of the searches, the resources open in the docked area as opposed to the floating window where I would like for them to open. Is there a way to fix this and have the resources open in the window of which they are clicked on? I hope that made sense. Thank you.

If instead of clicking the search results you try "dragging it" to where you want it does that give you what you want?

Thank you for the idea. That works with individual titles already within a search pane in a window. Unfortunately, it doesn't work if I click on, for instance, "Word Study" after "right-clicking" (in quotations because I am on a macbook) a word. It won't drag at all, and when I open it, it opens back in the dock where my other research project is open. At least you helped me figure part of it out. Thank you, sir.

Interesting - it drags for me on Windows.

Hopefully another Mac user will be able to comment

it opens back in the dock

I am unsure what you mean by "dock." Logos does not use that term (afaik). In macOS, the "dock" is the series of icons, which by default are along the bottom of the screen. Maybe screen shots would help.

I am unsure what you mean by "dock."

I'm guessing this is referring to the option you get when clicking on the "control icon" (top left) of a floating window which allows you to "dock this panel"

correct. When I say "dock" I am referring to the main area where items automatically open up if you do not choose "open in a floating window."

Thanks for confirming - I'm still intrigued that the Guide won't drag on Mac!

In that case "dock" is being used as a verb, whereas on Mac it is a noun. There isn't a place within Logos called "the dock."

I am willing to check... but I still don't know what is being asked. What won't move where under what circumstances?

I think - right-click on a word to bring up the context menu, select the lemma and then try and drag the BWS to a particular location

For clarification:

Right click on a word in a translation with an RI (I.e. ESV)
Make sure "lemma" is selected.
Move to the area where you would open a bible word study
Try to drag the icon to a panel to open a BWS there.

Is that right? If so, nada. Dead as a doornail. Don't work.

Thanks Alabama

Looks like a difference in Mac / Windows implementation

I wonder if that is something that can be fixed on the next update...?
