Logos 8 irritants

Lee Patmore

I am a long time logos user and am irritated that with the arrival of Logos 8, in the search pane, they have eliminated "Basics", "Logical Operators", etc. Why would they do this??? And when can we expect it back?

Why is it difficult to now see which resources are in the same link set? When you have just half a dozen bibles open on one half of your screen you can no longer see which are linked together. 

Repeatedly I find myself closing panes by accident in Logos 8. Something has changed so that the close button is larger than it used to be. Now if you click on the resource and are within an 1/8 inch of the close X it closes it? Why? Please fix.

I don't mind all the fancy new tools but what I really care about is the functionality of the basics. You've taken a major step backwards in this regard with Logos 8.

The Search Helps have been replaced with Templates, when you click the three-parallel-lines (hamburger) icon on the left. You can always use Logos Help resource (type Search) as a further help.

Many users are irritated by these, but it isn't certain what Faithlife will do to improve matters.
