OK, so everyone else already knows.  Quiet.

Using 'Find' (using Control/Cmd-F in a resource's text).

Pressing the Enter bar repeatedly, moves you down the page quickly.  I've been using the tiny arrow.  I use Find frequently, since I want to see the surrounding para, also.  Now, I can zoom thru!  Yes, I know about the Inline Search ... different animal.

Using My Favorite Search Engine in Logos

When I have search text (in the Search panel), and quickly want to also google it, just right-click the search text, and choose the engine. So far, that's the only place I've seen that.

    Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

    That works as long as your keyboard focus is in the find box. If it's not, you can use F3 and shift-F3 (at least in Windows, not sure about Mac) to navigate down/up through the find results.

    have had the software since 2014 and also new to me. Reminds me of another dead simple but unknown shortcut that I was amazed to learn...

    watching a morris proctor video and he hyped up something and said if you only learn one thing learn this and you will never forget it—when in the commentary use the right arrow to go to your next prioritized commentary. almost as revolutionary as when Jobs showed the iPhone and you think, where has this been all my life.

    This (left arrow right arrow) was a natural for me coming from WordSearch... we had what was called "Carrascals" in WS....  

    This works with bibles in Logos also.

    xn = Christan man=man -- Acts 11:26 "....and the disciples were first called Christians in Antioch".
