MJ. Smith

Another tip of the day (TOTD) series for Logos/Verbum 10. They will be short and often drawn from forum posts. Feel free to ask questions and/or suggest forum posts you'd like to see included. Adding comments about the behavior on mobile and web apps would be appreciated by your fellow forumites. A search for "L/V 10+ Tip of the Day site:community.logos.com" on Google should bring the tips up as should this Reading List within the application.

Help and Training part 1 dealt with the three forms of help available from application menu. In part 2 we explorer the help controlled by Program Settings. Here we look at help accessed via the panel menu (the kebab or three vertical dots in the upper right of the panel toolbar.

1. Help about this feature takes you to the appropriate location in the Help file. This was discussed in the first post.
2. Discuss this feature takes you to a Faithlife discussion group. This is illustrated below.
3. Show Help card. The Help card was discussed in the previous post and can be seen poking out from behind the menu in this screen shot.

Most Verbum/Logos features have discussion groups on https://faithlife.com/. Note your login is your standard login across Faithlife. Some of these groups are very active, many have no activity to speak of at all, a few have several posts totally unrelated to the group simply because there were no posts indicating the topics intended to be covered and new users did what they thought was intended.

In order to participate in a group you must follow it. Click "follow" and you're set for life.

You will then be able to create a new post (1) and manage notifications (2) of activity in the group.

You are also able to respond (1) to a post, to comments (2) on the post, or to comment on the post yourself (3).

Sentence diagrams and syntax search are two features that use Faithlife groups effectively.
