Good morning to all!

I tried to export a search today, and once again, Logos has lost the ability to export searches.

    Maybe it should be added that actually choosing export on that screen causes Logos to crash... [:S]

    Hm. Works for me - EDITED: on various bibles including the old NASB I think you are using, on German & English UI, latest beta (Logos), as well as stable (Verbum), no crash either - the difference being I tested this on Windows, not Mac.

    I tried to replicate this problem but could not get my search window to look anything like the one posted.

    How is this one obtained?

    Thanks Mick

    I tried it and found one or two differences...

    I was unable to select the 'Selected Text' button without selecting the text in advance.

    Although I was able to print one selection I do not seem able to print anything like a multi-verse selection.

    Neither Logos nor the Mac crash.

    I tried to export a search today, and once again, Logos has lost the ability to export searches. 

    I also can't replicate this problem on v30.1.38. I have two bibles opened that are both linked and when choosing print/export, it works as expected by showing the preview text. 

    Mark, do you have any other information that might help us replicate the issue above?

    To be honest, there are so many changes on search from what I am used to having, that I do not even know where to begin.

    1) I cannot export a search showing multiple versions as in the past. In the past, versions of the same verse were all together, verse by verse, in the order programmed in the search, and when I exported them, they would appear in Word, all of the texts together by reference, without separating them page by page. Now they are in separate search panels, supposedly scrolling together, but I cannot export them into a single document. When I try to export, as in the image below, I am informed that there are one hundred pages in this search, but only the first page displays in the export panel on logos, and only with one verse in English on the page, and I cannot go to the next page or verse. 



    2) Sometimes when  I send to a new document to Word, sometimes I get this, showing two versions in the header but only one version...


    Sometimes I get list with numbers and verses, but no indication of which book or translation: 

     

    And I'll be switched to know what makes the difference! But what I do not get anymore is contents of translations of each passage in a group, one passage after another, contiguosely filling up one page after another, and not putting a single passage on each page but not being able to get past the first page. 

    I have been using Logos since before it was Logos. I've been doing searches for more than three decades, with marvelous, useful results. This isn't my first rodeo. Seriously, I'd like to ask your programmers to stop improving the search mechanism, and go back to something which worked really, really well.
