Possible to get the correct WBC Volume to appear?
In L3 I had a toolbar button for WBC commentaries. When I clicked on it, it always opened at the correct volume, at the right passage.
In L4, when I drag a WBC volume onto the toolbar, and then click it, WBC always opens at that book, regardless of the active Bible reference.
Is it possible to duplicate the L3 functionality in L4? I don't want to have WBC open all the time, but rather accessible via toolbar.
Thanks
Richard

I remember reading somewhere that the serial links for the WBC aren't in place, or aren't complete yet. I get similar behavior.

Serial link works only in the given Testament (OT or NT) in the WBC series, however, there is a different behavior in L4 than in L3. When you write wbc in the command box, it offers last few places you have opened WBC commentary. When you go to the Library, you have to chose the correct volume and than it goes to the reference. When you put the volume in the toolbar, it open to the page of the time you put it there. It looks a new way of doing the thing. I miss very much the possibility to just write wbc into the command box and get the right volume to the current reference. It might be some trick like "wbc to ref" or something, it doesn't matter, but we need that.

I agree--we need some way to open a commentary to the active reference.

RichardYou mean to say that I've been doing it the hard way all along? I always select the appropriate volume for the passage and it opens to the passage. That seems simple enough to me.

In Logos 3 you can do it very simple way. You just opened WBC (or any other commentary series) and it opened to the active reference. In some cases you had to make a serial association. I use it all the time. You write wbc in the (how we call that in the V3) command line and it jumps to that reference. The same with the Bibles, Original texts and so on. I think it should work in V4 too.

That sounds like the difficult way to me! Simply clicking on a generic icon to get the right volume automatically would seem like the "easy" way, to my mind.

Your way would definitely be more difficult for me since I purposely remove all icons. There is therefore no "generic icon" to click on. I use the keyboard for everything I possibly can.
