Bug?: Neighboring note anchor icons not displaying

Daryle Froese

I recently noticed that my notes that are anchored to 2 passages which are immediately next to each other fail to show the note icon for the second passage.  For instance, I have a note which is anchored to multiple Psalms including the whole of Psalm 96 & the whole of Psalm 97. The icon for this note shows at the beginning of Psalm 96 but not at the beginning of Psalm 97.

As I remember, this seemed to be an issue early in version 8 & then was corrected (in 8.2 I believe?) but seems to have reoccurred now in some fashion?

This also occurs when a note is anchored to subsequent verses.  For instance, if I anchor a note to Psalm 97:1 & 97:3, each verse has a note icon.  When I anchor the same note to Psalm 97:2, the icon for verse 3 disappears & none shows for verse 2; only verse 1 has a related icon.  In this case, I believe that this is by design, with Logos treating multiple neighboring anchor verses as one passage.  But I don't think this is meant to happen when it comes to neighboring chapters.

Any help or insight would be appreciated

I can't be of much help here as I don't create these kinds of notes very often. Is there a difference in attaching a note to Psalm 96 & 97 vs. attaching it to Psalm 96-97?

I can reproduce this. But I wouldn't have thought it as "by design". Separate anchors should have their own icon, as with separate notes on those verses.

The note highlight remains for Ps 97, but it isn't linked to the parent note; unlike Ps 96.  If the original note is a note "by reference", there is no highlight, and no way to know that Ps 97 is linked to anything. In both cases, only Ps 96 will link to the original note. Not good.
