When using a dictionary resource like Merriam-Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary or Concise Oxford English Dictionary the reference text box that shows the current word is read only and can't be used for navigating to a specific word. Is this a bug or is it by purpose. Is there another way to navigate efficiency to specific words?

    It looks like something that still needs to be implemented - this seems to be the case for all resources other than Bibles at the moment.

    That is correct.

    This should now work as expected.

    Thanks,
