I like the new section selector in the "Use these sections" portion of the print (CTRL-P) dialog.
Nicely done, instantly intuitive, collapsible/expandable, pericope is version specific, able to select non-contiguous pericopes. Very cool!
It's cool but left me a little confused...
I highlighted some Hebrews...chapter 7....
But I had options for printing every other book of the bible!
That's certainly not the way it works right?

If you highlight first, then your selection is used (Use selected text).
If you hit CTRL-P from a Bible without having anything selected, you will have a pericope selected, but only if you're using the NIV (I think didn't check other versions earlier, oh well.)
I like the way it works with the NIV. Maybe it should be standard for the other versions too. But since the NIV is my primary Bible, and the official Bible of our congregation, I'm happy.
Rich,
I had hebrews highlighted, i hit CTRL +P....
I had the option of printing what was highlighted....printing the hebrews pericope...or every other book /chapter/verse of the bible!

Yes, that's what I see too.
Here's what's cool about it.
Let's say I'm looking at Hebrews 7. The footnote by Melchizedek says Genesis 14:18-20. I also know that the verse quoted by the author of Hebrews is from Psalm 110. Without going anywhere I can simply click those chapters and print them all out together. With the NIV, this is a little nicer, since I can select pericopes (when available), instead of entire chapters.
Richard,
Like I said....it's weird...
Why have anything selected if you can just print the entire bible by pushing CTRL P?
No other windows app works like this...it's just weird... [;)]
Edited to add:
I can see if it would detect the "links" in your selected text and give you the option to print any one of them....that would be cool....
I think where it is really helpful is in other books. for instance, if I'm in a book and I like what I see in Chapter 2, I no longer have to go through the hassle of highlighting Chapter 2. I just simply hit Ctl+p, and click on the chapter in the Print Pages' TOC. bingo.
With a Bible it doesn't make as much since because I can just type "John 5" in the reference block.

It's good, very good ... but there are a few quirks.
