Right-click menu: Two questions
I've go two resources open, both of which have "Haggai" in the text, and neither instance of the term has a link. If I right-click on one of them, the only choice on the left side is "Selection Haggai". On the other one, I get "Selection Haggai", "Haggai Topic" (it defaults to this) and "Lineages Cultural Concept".
First question: Can someone explain this behavior.
Furthermore, in another resource, when I right-click "HAGGAI" (all caps), I also get "Headword Haggai the Prophet" (please notice "Haggai" is not all caps in the menu choice).
Second question: Is the right-click menu influenced by a term's capitalization? It seems to be.
Many thanks!

It is probably down to whether the resource is a "Logos Research" resource, which has been tagged by Faithlife to link text to specific entities, or if it is a Logos Reader resource, which has minimized tagging for quick same-day release, or just an Ebook, which is just surface text with some automated tagging for bible references etc. You can see in your library under the 'Edition' facet the various resource types, and can filter there to find your resource type.
https://community.logos.com/forums/t/190556.aspx?PageIndex=1 has some good links to read a bit more.
https://wiki.logos.com/search_help#Headword might be useful for the Headword issue.

It depends on the resource, so it would be helpful if you stated what you used and provided screenshots. For instance, I can produce this from what you state (in Lexham bible Dictionary):-
Other resources have different tagging and datasets associated with their content (or none).

First question: Can someone explain this behavior.
I think Dave's answer is the best explanation:
Other resources have different tagging and datasets associated with their content (or none).
It is my understanding that most of these tags are done "by hand" rather than, for example, the automated process of hyperlinking scripture verses in FLEB titles (or personal books). Some resources lend themselves to greater tagging (and expectations of tagging) than others. A Bible Dictionary is a good example of a resource which should have extensive tagging. Books with great interest and ownership would likely be candidates for additional tagging. Obscure books with a narrow interest level would not.

It is also my understanding and what you say makes sense. I wasn't sure how much the right-click menu relied on tagging and how much was automatic (such as when I right click a Latin word even in a Perseus resource, which marshals all manner of choices).
Thanks friends. Your answers are helpful.

It's important to note that 'tagging' content is different to applying datasets to content, as the latter are usually applicable to many resources e.g.Cultural Concepts, Biblical Events (where tagging each resource would be onerous). Bible datasets may use passages to apply their datatype/data category, or may use original language words (where translations require a reverse interlinear).
