Passage Analysis - Pericope limitation > Bug or 'Feature'?
I've checked all the FAQs and the wiki, and I can't find anywhere where my question is addressed, so I'll try posting here.
Using Tools > Passage Analysis > Morph River
In Logos3, a demonstration I really liked to show using the Verb River tool was how in Romans, the imperative mood verbs pile up in the last few chapters. It showed at a glance how Paul started out with indicatives and only after having established his credentials and the Gospel he proclaimed to them did he move into instructions and exhortations at the end of the letter. (Yes, it's an imperfect measure, but it's roughly helpful...)
In the Morph River in Logos4, however, everything seems to be structured around pericopes. That is, I cannot generate (as I did in Logos3) an overview of Romans. It insists on Romans 1-6 or 10-16 or 9-12. Ie, one of the pre-defined pericopes, but none of them let me do the whole book.
IS IT POSSIBLE TO CONDUCT AN ANALYSIS ON AN ENTIRE BOOK?
If not, I strongly encourage this to be fixed and regain the functionality I enjoyed in Logos3.
(My question applies to any of the 5 analyses in the Passage Analysis tool, but my particular issue is with the Morph River. This also applies to virtually every other Bible book.)

I'm simply trying to bump this up...
Can anyone do a passage analysis on an entire book of the Bible?(Compare Pericopes or Word Tree or Morph River or Cluster Graph or Version River)
It is especially helpful to run a Morph River on an entire book. This was possible to do in L3.
Thanks...

Mark,
I just tried this in Logos 4.0c Beta 7, so the newest code outside of Logos. I get the same as you. It limits the range to the "built-in" Pericopes.
I had found something like this in the past, but assumed I did not know how to use the tools.
HOWEVER, Just now, I tried to use the command box which overrides the pre-built UI.
In the command box, type "Show Morph River for Romans" works!!!

EXCELLENT!
Thanks so much for figuring out that work around.

Okay what are you guys talking about - I am not restricted to pericopes or fixed lengths. Maybe my machine is smarter? [:D]

What the tool is actually doing is preventing you requested a graph for
more than six chapters. I can confirm the same bug. I'm running the beta, so I'll report it in the beta forum, when it will get more attention from the developers. (MJ, this bug appears when you choose Passage Analysis from the Tools menu.)

My way the bug is not the number of chapters shown but that the Bibles are all censored - no Mark 11
