Bug: Visual Copy Author & Resource Citation Slide Template "Hamon"

The slide templates for Visual Copy now appear to include a template featuring Bill Hamon's Birthing God's Purpose as the citation, no matter which resource I attempt to take a quote from. I do not even have that Hamon resource in my library. Here is an example of that template:

Hi Brad,

I have tried to emulate your predicament but cannot do so as I believe 'Visual Copy' has been superseded by the Media Tool.

Might I suggest that you upgrade your installation and try again?

I also have tried to reproduce the issue by selecting text and using "Visual Copy" in the right-click Context Menu (with Selection on the left side). This opens the Media tool. Note that I don't have the Metzger resource from the screenshot.

Thank you, Mike and Dave. Here are the steps that should help you reproduce the bug:

1) Select text in a resource
2) Bring up the right-click Context menu, and make sure “SELECTION” is selected on the left side
3) Click “Visual Copy” in the Context Menu
4) When the Media window pops up, click the “>” in the upper right corner to cycle through available backgrounds, OR click the tile icon (3X3 boxes) in the upper right corner to display several of the available backgrounds simultaneously. Ether way, as you scroll through the options you will come across the Bill Hamon resource background option.
5) If you then select the Hamon background you'll see the same problematic effect that was evident in the screenshot in my original post.

Something is wrong, because that single resource-specific background should not appear as a background for citations from other resources. It appears that this particular Hamon resource background may have been accidentally included in the master visual copy background library.

I have seen that Hamon background option for slides for every resource for which I have attempted this. Here are a couple of screen shots that show an example using Lane’s WBC volume 47A on Hebrews 1-8:

Does that make sense, and are you able to reproduce the bug, given that additional explanation?

FYI, FWIW, I’m running L10 for Mac 34.1.9 with the Logos Pro (early access) Feature Set.

Thank you!

Yes, I can reproduce the Hamon background, but I had to use the tile icon.

Thanks for the report. That particular slide should no longer show up for all resources, only the one for which it was intended.

Thank you, Andrew!
