How do you turn off popular highlights across all resources?

This has got to be the most annoying feature in Logos. I don't want to see my whole bible underlined. This is a useful Kindle feature. It is not a useful Logos feature and I am really tired of having to select the button then uncheck underline popular highlights in everything I read.

Thanks, but it seems the default setting is on. I would like to change the default to off so I don't have to turn it off every time I open a resource.

Look at the screenshot once again. When you click the triangle at the right-hand-side of the VF, you can turn it off for all resources.
Have joy in the Lord!

It would make sense for this to be a toggle in the main app settings. In its current location, it's not easy to find, and for a lot of people it's going to be one of the first things they want to do.

I agree with @Aaron Blumer about having something in the main settings for this. With this could also be included some defaults like always show page numbers, always show footnotes, etc.
Or perhaps the best solution is for the default setting to be that popular highlights are NOT enabled. If someone wants them, they can enable them.
There was the same problem with Community Notes (which have now been done away with).

I assume that currently it's set to to show as a popular highlight if more than X # of people have highlighted it. If so, it really needs to be changed to something like, only show the top X% most common highlights.
It is already implemented this way (so that no more than 5% of the book (as a whole) has "popular highlights").
It seems the threshold is so low that it results in having nearly every word in your Bible as a popular highlight
I think you'll find that the popular highlighting in Bibles is extremely unevenly distributed; it'll be rare to find many in, say, Leviticus or Numbers. (But Ephesians does have a lot.)

I'll just turn it off. I don't want to see other peoples works on my books.

For Bibles, it would make more sense to limit the 5% to each biblical book. The NT, representing a small percentage of the Bible and a large percentage of the highlights, gets overcrowded.

Yes, that would probably improve the display of popular highlights.
For non Bibles, it would be better to exclude indexes, tables of contents, etc. from the 5% calculation, too.
