Underlining & marginal notes within the actual text.
Is there or do you think that Logos will eventually make it possible to mark-up resources like you/I do in hand-held text books, commentaries etc?
Most of my books have pencilled underlining and notes in the margins. They're pretty 'messy' but they sure are nice to review.
Maybe resources in Logos would have the ability to widen margins or the capability of using pencil/pens to underline and take notes.
OR! In the future having the technology to scan a hard cover book and all it's notes and replicate those into a Logos owned resource of the same book.

You can do the markup now with the customizable highlights; the marginal notes is what is missing. This is important for those used to marking up their books; I am not one of them.
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."

So, if you're referring to highlights and customizable highlights, yep, already know that. However, it is the marginal notes that I'm referring to.
Maybe in the future then........

I thought writing notes in the margins would be nice, until I could do that (Kindle Scribe). First, my writing is a lot bigger than 12pt text. And I often re-read, and add more notes at the same place. I think scrolling notes is better (separate panel).
But drawing textual relationships would really be nice. I have that. In a normal book, it's bad form to draw all over the author's text, the author's arguments! But digital, works great.
