The morphology in the exegetical guide (word by word) shows unnecessary parsing, is it a bug, or is it a setting that I need to change? Can someone please help
Can't display your screenshot because it contains errors. Please upload it via the paperclip icon (and check that it is ok).
The unnecessary parsing is possibly something you need to change. This wiki should provide an explanation and you can comment further.
I tried changing the settings from there but it's still not working. For the greek new testament, it's working fine. Thank you so much for taking the time to reply, Dave.

What was your expectation for the Hebrew?

Hovering mouse over parsing has information pop-up:

Thank you. But I want to change how the parsing shows up; like the one in the context menu.

The parsing data display is not customizable. If you want it to be, request it through the feedback site (feedback.faithlife.com) and hope enough other users vote its priority up.

I think you are "complaining" about the alternative parsings when the parsing from the various available morphological systems disagree on the classification of the form or offer multiple possibilities. This is an essential feature of Word-by-word as this is the only place to compare the various morphologies. The symbol + over - is the visual clue for alternative parsings.
Thank you so much, now I understand the problem. I thought the parsing is always customizable.

Natural language parsing programs are a separate "genre" of programs that are generally produced by natural language processing research groups often associated with universities. They are normally written as trainable artificial intelligence programs which require skills outside the skill set of the target Logos market.

What feels buggy to me is Word By Word section showing intermixed Hebrew parsing from selected Hebrew Bible AND Biblia Hebraica transcripta (BHt), which is quite different than morphology shown in Information Tool Tip in selected Hebrew Bible. My preference would be Word By Word morphology matching Information Tool Tip with a setting option to show/hide additional morphology.
Also Word By Word automatic selection of English Reverse Interlinear for the Lexham Hebrew Bible feels buggy: my purchased Logos library shows ESV while my demonstration account shows 1900 KJV (with my preference being Lexham English Bible that is prioritized higher than KJV & ESV).
Yeah that is what I saw as well. Unlike the Greek, the Hebrew is all mixed up in its parsing.

This is the only place in the system that provides the comparative morphology information which is critical for some of us. Of course, the BHt morphology is different (very different) than the Logos Hebrew morphology shown in the tooltip. The Logos morphology is a very conservative (read familiar and outdated) morphology; the BHt is more inline with more recent linguistic theory. I would hope there would be a Great Uprising from the linguistically oriented users if the data was removed. As with all Logos tools, use the portion that fits your needs and ignore that which doesn't.

Have you identified and reported any bugs? The head of the philosophy department where I did my BA use to say he'd earned the right to be prejudice against women, left-handers, and Marines. His complaint against women? In class they would say "I feel" rather than "I think" which drove him nuts throughout 30+ years of teaching. Yeah, I haven't finished my first cup of coffee and I got up early but I really HATE it when people ask to have important data removed ... admittedly not important to them but important to some users. I am always tempted to retaliate by asking for the removal of Strong's numbers as they were developed to serve a problem that no longer exists due to electronic documents with tagging and searching.

If someone has disagreement with Hebrew morphology shown in Word By Word, how should a typo be reported ? Morphology tagging is intermixed plus does NOT show source Hebrew morphological database so I agree with DMB about current 'silly' implementation, which I think is logically puzzling plus feels frustrating trying to decipher 0, 0, 0, 0, other or 0 'what in the world ???'
Personally like idea of comparing Hebrew Morphological database tagging for various words. Awesome would be the ability to compare several older morphologies (WIVU, AFAT, LHW, BHW) with BHt. Also agree with you about BHt morphology being very different: e.g. 'Ground stem [G)' compared to Qal (used in many familiar Hebrew grammars).

My earlier 'removal' reply had two parts:
My preference would be Word By Word morphology matching Information Tool Tip with a setting option to show/hide additional morphology.
First desire is removing 'silly' intermixing of morphological terms in favor of matching Information Tool Tips for the selected Hebrew Bible.
Second desire is Hebrew morphological database comparison. Awesome in comparison would be the ability to click (or right click) selection so could open source Hebrew Bible to the word having the morphological tagging.
My preference would be using Exegetical Guide: Word by Word to compare five Hebrew Morphological databases:
