Highlight search results for only 1 operand

With most search operators, the results for each operand is highlighted in a different color. Is there any way to return results for only one of the operands?

For example, 3 minutes into the "Filtering by Location and Person" Logos Pro video, it suggests this search:[quote]<Person Paul> AND <Person Timothy> AND <LN 93.389-93.615>Although that does return places where Paul and Timothy were together, it also returns highlighted hits in two other colors for Paul, Saul, Timothy, pronouns, etc, which are noise in a search for places. That noise is distracting in Grid and Verses searches, but Aligned or Analysis search results are even noisier: given N operands, they output N results for every verse.

So my question, restated: How can I limit my search results to just the operand of interest? (e.g. places in this case, not people)

Thanks,
-Pete

Try replacing AND with INTERSECTS.

im not at my computer at the moment so can’t check but that might get you more what you are looking for

Thanks for giving it a shot. I'd actually tried that too, before posting, and:

On the one hand, yes, the newer proximity operators, WITHIN and INTERSECTS do return results for only the first operand;
On the other hand, they don't achieve the same goal, e.g. the search <LN 93.389-93.615> INTERSECTS <Person Paul>, returns hits for places describing Paul (e.g. "Roman") rather than places where Paul traveled.
(and in this particular case, WITHIN and INTERSECTS return the same results)

There's no built-in way to highlight only one of the terms in a search.

However, one possible workaround would be to run your first search, then export the results to a Passage List. Then close that search and run a new search for just <LN 93.389-93.615>, setting the search range to the Passage List document you just created. (Click All Passages in the Bible Search settings and scroll down to the bottom to find your passage lists, or type in the name of it to filter.)
