Search by Highlight Style?

Is there a way to search by a particular highlight style?

As I'm reading my bibles, like a lot of people, I highlight certain texts using different colors which have unique meanings for me. For example:

Green highlighter = Faith

Green highlighter with wavy underline = Righteousness by Faith

Red highlighter = Sacrifice, Christ's love, OT foreshadowings of Christ's sacrifice

Etc. I use 20+ different styles for different things.

Hence my question. Is there a way to do a search to pull up ALL the texts I've highlighted on faith by searching for JUST the green highlighted texts?

In the Bible Search panel use the little arrow under 'All Bible text' to access this ability:

Awesome! That's great. This is a huge feature for me.

But as a follow up, how would I go about looking up EVERY text I have highlighted with "blue highlighter"? What I mean is what if I'm not looking up any particular word with blue highlighting, but I want to look up EVERY verse with blue highlighting. How could I go about doing that?

I tried searching for " " thinking that every verse would have a space in it, but it seems to only want to search for words and ignores spaces.

Thanks so much for your help thus far!

I tried searching for a * and it seems to just freeze up the system and never gives any results. ??

EDIT: I guess it DOES work. But something must be wrong. It took 5 minutes to get 5 results. That can't be right, can it? I have a super fast computer, so it can't be on my end.

Any ideas?

What was the actual search that you did? The one that took 5 minutes to get 5 results. I will try the same search on mine. I am on a AMD Quad core 8 MB Ram.

Do you know how to post your logs? http://wiki.logos.com/Diagnostic_Logging

It takes a long time, you must have missed the note in the wiki

Someone from Logos mentioned that this was not really a supported method (e.g. using * to search for everything). But it seems to work [:)]
