Issues with Notes and Text Comparison

TheresAnAppForThat

I have several issues with regard to the behavior of the Notes and Text Comparison functionality of Logos.

I've posted this video to explain: https://youtu.be/Lm8ONotRfc0

Hi - and welcome

I've had a brief look at the video and note it is ten minutes long.

Are you able to summarise the issues please?

Thanks, Graham

Hi Graham and thanks for the welcome.

I made the video because a couple of emails I had with Logos support suggested that they didn't understand the problems. So I made the visual to help clarify the issues. In summary:

Note titles do NOT show up in mouse hovers when reading through resources, but they DO show up when using the mobile app. If I'm going to bother making note titles in the first place, they should be consistently visible everywhere.
Note icons for a Chapter (not a Chapter and verse) show up on Windows but not on Android app
Only 2 or 3 notes are visible in Documents portion of Android app. Large amounts of screen space wasted. A dozen or more notes should be visible, at least in "Compact view"
There is no way to bulk-edit notes on Windows or Android that I know of. E.g. select multiple notes and change the font, icon, indentation, etc.
Touchability needs a lot of work. Resource panel can scroll with touch, Notes panel barely scrolls with touch, and Text Comparison panel doesn't scroll at all with touch.
Android app Text Comparison tool has a fixed font size while the resource font size is variable.
Android app Text Comparison could be a lot more useful if it behaved more as a resource than as a separate 'tool'. Allow users to long-press on words to get more info, change resources at the top of the screen like you would otherwise, maybe even swipe left to advance to the next verse. Also, it's very hard to get out of the Text Comparison view on Android.

I've responded to these at https://community.logos.com/forums/p/142163/900392.aspx#900392 - and since most of them are mobile-related let's continue the discussion there
