How do I add a new NAVIGATION MENU?

Hello, is there a way I can add a new NAVIGATION MENU or RESOURCES MENU or whatever that is called (see pic please)?

The reason is that I have more commentaries that I check and I can't always read the NAMES of the books because there is no much room left (too narrow).

Thank you and God bless you Smile

Couple ideas are floating window(s) that have their own set of tab(s) plus can use arrow keys for switching to previous/next prioritized resource.

Can use arrow keys OR select desired resource from parallel list: //

FYI: having many resources linked together for scrolling has opportunity for jumps since some commentaries do not have an entry for every verse.

Another idea is using multi-view ||| for grouping resources. Primary resource is connected with link set for scrolling while secondary resource(s) follow.

Multi-view => New Feature: Multiview Resources (Tool) and video => https://www.logos.com/logos-pro/multiview-resources

Parallel resources can be used to avoid having too many resource tabs in a layout.

The resources have to be capable of displaying the same type of information e.g. DBL Greek is a lexicon so one list Lexicons comes from a collection of mine. The other list All Parallel Resources is always present and is assembled by Logos. Without opening this menu you can use the left arrow <---- and right arrow ----> keys to move between resources.

Use passage guide and you won't need to have all of these open at once. That amount of open resources linked together must be having an impact upon system performance. You can create a custom passage guide to display just your favourite commentaries.

Thank you keep smiling,

I didn't know about the Multiple Resources, but the only thing I wish is that I could resize the reading areas (the Bible should be small than the Commentaries, for instance, at least that's what it would work for me).

Also, when I tried the floating window, the problem is that I can't keep the highlighting tool in both the main Logos windows and the floating windows (it stays in only one of them) and I use highlighting a lot.

I gonna keep trying to see if I can work around these two issues.

Thank you

Carlos

I didn't know about this feature. I think I could use it, but I might have to rename the commentaries (that's what I use the most) with a number, so when I click into the Parallel Resources icon, they will show up the ones I use the most first (like if I put a number or a dot in the beginning of the Commentary Title). Very interesting feature I wasn't even aware of. I'll explore it more.

Thank you again and God bless you,

Carlos

Yes I do have a speed problem in my computer; especially, when I right click a word to search its meaning or when I right-click a word/sentence to remove a highlight, but I don't know what's a Passage Guide yet; so I will do a research in this forum or in the Logos wiki page.

Thank you and God bless you,

If I understand you, drag the vertical border line to the right.

Just Prioritize your commentaries to achieve that; a sample list shows you the order of different types of resources - read the Notes carefully.

Personally use visual filter highlighting more than manual. Logos wiki has => Examples of visual filters

Shortcut keys can be assigned to Highlighting styles. Help includes Highlighting => https://ref.ly/logosres/logos4help;hw=Highlighting that also has a Tip

Tip: If a favorite highlighter has been selected previously, the Highlighting panel doesn’t have to be opened every time. You can use Cmd-K (Mac) or Ctrl+K (Windows) to apply the highlight to selected text.
