When I am scrolling in my Bibles the scroll bar has lines in it that when I hover over them they open a passage, what is the purpose of this feature?

    Those are wear lines showing where you have stopped/used a passage.

    Scrollbar bookmarks

    Also called “read-wear marks,” these hash-marks appear in the scrollbar of resources to indicate time has been spent in that location.

    • History (grey), Favorites (blue), and current Search Results (orange) are displayed as colored lines on the resource scrollbar.
    • Hover over a grey mark to see visited places. The more time spent in a location, the darker the mark.
    • Hover over an orange mark to view a current search result.
    • Hover over a blue mark to view a Favorite place.
    • Go to Tools > Program Settings to turn scrollbar bookmarks off or on.

    Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."
