Hello 

As Joel wrote on https://joelarnold.com/review-of-logos-9/ 

"Url schemes

Another item major wishlist item is deep linking. A certain competing software vender lets me run complex searches from a link. I use this constantly in teaching and preaching to show my listeners verse lists or repeated patterns across Scripture. I can do some very basic location linking but can’t get close to this yet in Logos."

I also would love to have an improved URI/URL scheme. In the competitor software you can copy search query as URI. If you paste them in Word/Pages/Papyrus/etc. as link the link open then the application and run the search. 

Thanks

Fabian

    I'm not sure I understand the problem - as far as I can see Logos supports this already.

    In the screenshot below I have copied the URL of a Search Window and pasted it into a Word document

    I can now Ctrl-Click the link in the document and it opens the search panel and runs the search in Logos. It does go "through" the web app but the functionality does seem to be there.

    Logos can do that. And it works in Pages.

    ([field heading,largetext] Acts,Epistle,Gospels,"New Testament",Revelation) BEFORE 111 WORDS (original) WITHIN 7 WORDS (Aramaic,([match exact] Hebrew))

    Meanwhile, Jesus kept on growing wiser and more mature, and in favor with God and his fellow man.

    I must be missing something in your request because I think I've been doing this for years. Are you asking for a different format for the function?
