Why is the ability to select and copy PORTIONS of the INFORMATION tab NOT WORKING?

This has been a problem since a couple versions back.

I want to go to the information panel and select only part of the references listed - rather than all the information listed. This was possible before 5 or 6 and now is not. Why in the world would this be disabled?

Hi Craig - and welcome to the forums

Do you mean that you want to copy a subsection - such as "Definition" - or a subset of information in such a subsection?

Craig,

If you are trying to copy a subsection like definition you can right click on the heading and choose copy.

Understood, but there is no way to copy just one of the resources.

Here's a link to my screenshot vid. explaining what I'm trying to do.

I find copying and pasting used to be easier too (several people reading this just rolled their eyes and/or groaned no doubt) and I would like to be able to grab part of a line or sentence and NOT the whole sentence at times (but still have a footnote with the info I pulled). I work around this by grabbing the whole line and then editing out what I do not need later.

...no doubt this adds zilch to your post but I am expressing empathy.

Writing a paper in turabian has gotten harder I think even with Logos but in two months I graduate.

God bless all those struggling to do basic things in Logos.
I may take a course in Logos 101 finally or use some of the free resources a zillion well-intentioned people will suddenly reintroduce links for here now.

p.s. I am not really as redfaced as my awful picture shows...geepers. [:)] I take horrible selfies. Craig has a fun photo.

Yes, I believe this is a fundamental problem - one that users have been set back without. Can we suggest this to whoever does upgrading?

Again, in short, it would be nice to be able to simply select part of the reference - such as one of the definitions and copy it in order to paste it into study notes without having to go back and erase all the unnecessary definitions.
