Atlas - viewing multiple layers or maps at the same time

Is it possible to view multiple maps at the same time in the atlas? For example, I can filter my maps to view Paul's second missionary journey from Tarsus to Lystra, but I would also like to view his journey from Lystra to Troas at the same time. I'd like to view the entire second missionary journey all at once, but the atlas allows me to view only one segment at a time.

Is there a solution for this? Do I have to buy more maps or data for the atlas?

Thanks in advance. I searched the forums but couldn't find any discussion on this.

Sadly, no.

There have been a lot of requests over the years, since Logos 4 in fact, to allow for these sorts of things. Perhaps under the new business model, Logos will bump something like this up the priority list.

If you go to the feedback website, part of the issue is that suggestions for improvement are spread across a number of items to vote for, and at some point, they need to be consolidated. Feel free to vote on any of these or add your own.

Tell me, it's not true! How many can there be? I thought FL went in and combined as needed. I am a bit surprised there's no full 2nd Journey (?) ... I'd think that's bread and butter in Bible class.

This is sad indeed. If customers need Logos to listen to them and Logos is interested in seriously listening to their customers, there has to be a better way to organize this.

This made me wonder whether it is better to have a Feature-specific Forums/Feedback. You can have a drop-down menu so that participants are forced to pick the feature they are asking questions and the feature for which they giving feature improvement requests.

People have complained about Atlas/Images for years... I wish I could say I am hopeful it will improve but it is doubtful.

Atlas, IMHO, is bland and without depth. Having to be online to use it is also less than desirable.

It would probably be better to find another atlas for this image. Lexham has a Journey's of Paul book that is a compilation of blog posts that had a decent image from what I remember.

To be fair, I do like the slides that come with it (when they exist) and the distance finder but I would appreciate clearer images. Especially when you zoom in and tilt.
