What would be really cool would be to be able to link a bible to an atlas so that a marker on the atlas followed the bible text in the same way a commentary can follow the text ? Perhaps add a trace to the marker on the atlas to plot a path the story follows ? The information is already there and it is possible to get to locations on the atlas already but I think it would be very useful for us visual types for this type of facility.

    You can select a link set (e.g. ESV Link set A, Atlas Link set A) The map itself will not follow the text, but the event filters will change as you move through the text

    I wish this was available for the Logos 5 Maps so users who are offline could have maps that follow with events of the Bible.

    Second using Logos 5 maps it would be great to double click on a place in the Bible and the Logos 5 map would zoom in to that location.

    Thanks Fred, I didn't know this was possible and it looks useful :-)
