L4 Mac just keeps getting better and better. May I suggest a tweak that would make it even better?
I write a number of manuscripts each year for publication in various volumes. I noticed that in the style choices available for Copy Bible Verses, none of the styles match the correct form used in most publications. The screen shot below shows more clearly what I mean.
.
These are just two examples, but they are representative of thousands and thousands of examples I could give from the actual books in the Logos Library. However, even though this format dominates the style used in virtually every Logos Book, (and books in general for that matter), in the tool, Copy Bible Verses, none of the ten default menu choices precisely match this standard formatting.
The screen shot below depicts my attempt to create a style that matches the format of quotations used in most publications, where a single period comes after the parenthetical citation.
It would be fantastic if the devs could add one more default option that would have a non-italicized quotation, beginning and ending with quotation marks, and ending with a parenthetical citation followed by a period. Perhaps it could be named "Publication," or "Manuscript Style," or whatever you think best.
If this is absolutely impossible, could someone please teach me how to create my own style that would eliminate the extra period and back up the end quote mark one space? This would save me a lot of time in not having to delete the period and back space the quote mark every time I paste a Bible verse into my manuscript. It would also match the formatting for quotations as used in publications.
Please and Thank you.
