You know, I should have read your post more carefully!
Here's a screen shot of one of my layout loading macros. There are four steps:
1) Activate Logos (it's probably already at the front if you want this, but I like to make sure).
2) Type Option+Command+L to put the cursor in the command bar in Logos.
3) Type the text you want. For my example, it's "Load Matthew Sermon" – Matthew Sermon is the name of my current study layout.
4) Type the Return keystroke.
To perform other actions (open other layouts, resize the program size, etc., just replace "Load Matthew Sermon" with whatever text is appropriate. Type it in the command bar yourself first and make sure it's correct, and then pop it into Keyboard Maestro. When I create a new macro, I just duplicate an existing macro, change the name, update the text field, and change the trigger.

I posted another response, but Logos wants to approve that one, too. I must not be trustworthy or something. Let me describe it for you.
In Keyboard Maestro, create a new macro, and name it as you desire. (I'll assume you know how to use Keyboard Maestro, let me know if you need more specific instructions).
This macro will have four steps.
Step 1: Activate Logos (Logos is probably already open, but I use a couple of different apps on different monitors, so I like to make sure that Logos is in front).
Step 2: Type a Keystroke, specifically Option+Command+L. This will put the cursor into the command bar in Logos.
Step 3: Insert Text. For instance, my primary study layout right now is named "Matthew Sermon," so I type this into the Insert Text box: Open Matthew Sermon. ("Insert text by" can be set to typing or pasting).
Step 4: Type a Keystroke, specifically Return, to complete the macro.
Hope this helps.

Very helpful, thank you.
If I'm not mistaken, Logos for Mac is missing the Logos for Windows shortcut that allows opening layouts, so this is much needed.
I hope someone at Faithlife will consider this +1 for layout shortcuts in Mac.
I use Verbum with an 8-Core Mac Pro (2013) and a MacBook Pro (2017)

There are probably differences between Mac and Windows versions. In the past I've dragged layouts up into the shortcuts bar to make them clickable, and now with Stream Deck I have a quick way of using the command bar, and I use both, depending.

Thank you for that, i'm a brand new user of stream deck XL. Do you think you can also share your profile ? (export) ?
Thank you

I don't see a way to share the profile with you directly on Logos. Here's a screenshot of the current setup.
- Detail, Voices, and Sermon are custom layouts I use in Logos.
- Search opens a search panel.
- Treas. Scripture Knowledge opens that to the current Bible reference.
- Sermon DB opens a Filemaker document that I use to plan my sermon calendar.
- Large Screen changes the Program display size (in settings) for a large screen.
- Close All closes every panel in Logos.
- Create Link creates a hyperlink in a note.
- Update Layout updates the current layout in Logos.
- I have shortcuts to Scrivener, a thesaurus app, Accordance (if I can say that here), the Oxford English Dictionary, BBEdit, and Word.
- I also have shortcuts to various Logos forums.

No problem. I tried to upload them here but am receiving an error. Can you shoot me an email? (I'll shoot you my Logos Profile and my overall Stream Deck Profile)

Hey Gregory! Are you using the Stream Deck; how's it going? Blessings.

Hey Gregory! Are you using the Stream Deck; how's it going? Blessings.
Yes and no . . . for our church live-stream, we've found it's much more efficient to use an iPad running the StreamDeck app. That way it's wireless. When I live-stream from my office (who knows what the future holds) I use the StreamDeck itself. I also use it during my study process for various shortcuts and so on.
I don't think I saw your September message; if you still need my email, it's gplawhorn@gmail.com.
Have a blessed Lord's day!

Here's my most recent Logos Stream Deck Profile -- please let me know if it works out (importing it). You'll be able to easily change the Macros that launch my Logos Layouts by simply editing the Layout names in the commands... should only take a second. Blessings!

Thank you Scott,
Just got my Stream Deck on Tuesday and am having a great time populating the buttons. This is a great help!

So glad to hear it John! I hope you love it. It takes a little work to setup (especially if you're a perfectionist like me) [;)] -- but once it was all up and running, it has worked flawlessly for me. And it really is a great time setting it up, and using it. It's Logos on steroids from a workflow perspective.

Hi there,
I have just got a Stream Deck and found this post - but when I click on the blue "Logos Stream Deck Profile" text in the post, nothing happens.
Can you tell me how I might access your profile for importing?
Thanks,
David

Sorry - I have now discovered the download link in the first post!
Thanks

Hey David! So glad you figured out how to download all the button images. Please consider posting here and letting us all know how you like using StreamDeck with Logos. Blessings, Scott

Hi Scott,
Just recently got a 15 key Stream Deck and was having problems importing your Logos profile on my Mac.
Now I am not sure if it is having an issue importing because of the windows file path to logos or because your profile uses the larger Stream Deck XL.
Anyhow I was wondering if you had made any changes to the profile since you last posted it here and if you could post one without the windows file path

Hey Michael!
I haven't made any changes to my profile, except that I have installed a newer version of Stream Deck 5.1.2.14743 -- perhaps a difference in versions is part of the problem? But I doubt it as the profiles should work independently of the version. I did some quick research and though these may not be helpful, I thought I'd post just in case (I couldn't find anything directly related to transferring profiles from PC to MAC):
https://wpguru.co.uk/2019/04/where-is-stream-deck-profile-data-saved
https://boardgamestips.com/faq/how-do-i-copy-a-stream-deck-profile
www.reddit.com/r/ElgatoGaming/comments/9gy5by/is_there_a_place_for_sharing_profilesFrom what I can see, the extension should be ".StreamDeckProfilesBackup"
I'd recommend finding a good forum and posting, asking for help. Perhaps posting in this thread here (although it's a bit old): www.reddit.com/r/ElgatoGaming/comments/btmqop/profile_export_to_different_pc_stream_deck
... or perhaps creating a new thread here: www.reddit.com/r/streamdeckprofiles
Sorry I couldn't be of more help. If you figure it out, please post back here and let us know how you did it.
Blessings,
Scott

I just realized something, I have a Stream Deck XL (32 Keys) -- so my profile wouldn't work on your unit. Sorry about that.

I was looking at getting a Stream Deck and was wondering how you use it in Logos. Thanks!

Hey James!
These buttons are demonstrative of how I'm primarily using StreamDeck with Logos: https://community.logos.com/cfs-filesystemfile.ashx/__key/CommunityServer.Discussions.Components.Files/147/0714.0-Stream-Deck-Logos-Button-Samples.png
But I'd recommend looking at this entire thread to try and get a clearer picture of some ways it can be used.
Blessings,
Scott

Hi Scott,
Just wondering if you'd be able to upload a profile that has 15 buttons max for highlighting. I'm currently trialing the mobile version and have downloaded your version of it but it only uploads the first 15 buttons. Want to see if I'll actually use it before purchasing the XL version and would be mainly using it for the highlghting feature.
Thanks,
Clifford

Hey Clifford! Boy, I think this is a bit complicated and I'm not sure exactly how I could do that without a lot of work, and possibly risking doing something I might regret. [:(]
I'm assuming that you can't reach my highlights folder, because the shortcut to my highlights is on the main page: Row3 Column6 (the 18th' button so to speak).
I think some other folks on this thread are actually using the 15 button streamdeck. Since you're using the phone version, you already understand the functionality; can you tell me exactly what it is that you're trying to test / ascertain? Can you just assign a couple highlights to the phone version buttons and give it a try?

It was just really the highlights that I wanted but I worked out how to set shortcuts for them so was able to build my own last night

We've been using one of these at my church for over a year now and I finally wondered if this would be a good tool for Logos. I just got mine in. Here's what I've set up so far on my Logos profile.

Excellent Jeremy; I hope you end up loving it. It took me forever to get everything just right for Logos, but once I got it all set up... I haven't edited anything in a LONG time! Enjoy.
0 -
Thanks. I think it's going to be a while also before I have a setup that doesn't change. I've been photoshopping my own buttons so I really hope they don't change the logo much when version 10 is released this fall.
