Is it possible to prioritize grammars?

Michel Pauw

It sounds like a rhetorical question, because I tried and it didn't seem to work. 

Anyway, I created a Custom Translation Guide, where I want to have my grammars be displayed in my preferred order. Is that possible? If so, what am I missing here?

The key to know if any resource can be prioritized is to look at how it is indexed. For instance, BDAG is indexed by Greek headwords and by page. On the other hand most grammars are indexed by page. As a result, it is my understanding that they really can't be prioritized in the way lexicons can be.

Despite the fact that the UI for prioritization implies that prioritization can be applied to an arbitrary list of resources, this is not actually how things work.

Prioritization only applies when looking up a reference in a resource's Index (you can see a list of the resource's indexes on the resource's information page). So, a list of resources can only be prioritized in a situation where you are looking up a reference in all of those resources. Many (most? all?) Grammars don't actually have an index other than possibly a page number index. That means that there isn't a way to apply prioritization to them in this scenario.

You're awesome, that's the trick I was looking for! I now numbered my grammars by editing the titles "#1: [TITLE]", etc. 

Thanks!
