L/V 10+ Tip of the Day #216 URL - reference vs. resource

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.

This tip is inspired by the forum post: "Copy URL" problem - Logos Forums

For prioritized source

• open resource
• select text (location)
• right click to open context menu
• select reference on left (tab) side
• select copy location as URL on right (action) side (red box)
• result: https://ref.ly/logosref/Augustine.De_civ._Dei_1.10 which will open the highest priority resource containing the milestone City of God 1.10

For specified source

• open resource
• select text (location)
• click on kebab (three vertical dots) to open panel menu
• select copy location as URL (red box)
• result: https://ref.ly/logosres/cityofgod?ref=Augustine.De+civ.+Dei+1.10 which will open this particular resource to the location

You can verify the behavior by pasting the URL in the comand box, hit enter, and observe what is opened.

• open resource
• select text (location)
• right click to open context menu
• select reference on left (tab) side
• select copy location as URL on right (action) side (red box)
• result: https://ref.ly/logosref/Augustine.De_civ._Dei_1.10 which will open the highest priority resource containing the milestone City of God 1.10

Selecting text is not needed as you right-click at the appropriate location.

The second set of steps needs a heading and a screenshot for the red box  i.e.

• open resource
• select text (location)
• click on kebab (three vertical dots) to open panel menu
• select copy location as URL (red box)
• result: https://ref.ly/logosres/cityofgod?ref=Augustine.De+civ.+Dei+1.10 which will open this particular resource to the location

Here, selecting text determines the exact location  e.g.  https://ref.ly/logosres/npnf02?ref=Augustine.De+civ.+Dei+1.10.2&off=2250&ctx=s+injunction+runs%2c+%E2%80%9C~Lay+not+up+for+yours

But you can also position the required text line at the top of the panel and then select copy as URL.

Oops - I omitted a screen shot. I know that for the right click, selecting the text is not necessary if you want only 1 verse (or paragraph or other unit). But selection is required for multiple verses so I intentionally included it. Your post is a great follow up emphasizing options.
