Figurative Language Visual Filter

I have followed the directions on the Figurative Language visual filter video. I see Figurative Language in the visual filter drop-down menu in my resources, but I do not see my formatting when I am reading in my Bibles. What am I missing? I hope its not resources. I bought Gold.

So upon further review, in some places I am seeing my formatting but in other places I am not. For example, Luke 6:23 "your reward" and "great in heaven" are marked but in Psalm 23 "my shepherd" is not marked.

The Figurative Language dataset only currently supports the Gospels as per https://community.logos.com/forums/t/129240.aspx

Although the Figurative Language dataset currently only includes the gospels, we are working hard to complete the rest of the New Testament. Those books will be released as they are completed.

With all due respect, since it works so poorly in the Gospels, expanding it to the rest of Scripture is really pointless. For instance, just follow the Logos Pro video for making the filter and then take a look at Matthew 24. The results of what it is saying is figurative language is more often far off the mark than even close to it. And it gets even stranger when you look at Matthew 13. Having a figurative language function which requires you to know what is actually figurative so as to separate the true results from the false is not at all helpful.

Could you give some concrete examples of what you think is mis-coded? Which results in Matthew 13 do you consider false positives? Note that one often has to look at the underlying Greek to see that the language is figurative as the English may not be.

Why don't you tell us this in the tutorial video? A footnote would be fine. I just spent an hour going through all the steps several times, trying to see figurative language in Paul.
