FEATURE REQUEST: Let an indicator be added so the user can easily distinguish between the Hebrew and Aramaic sub-resources of HALOT in the Library and the Tab headings. 

EXPLANATION:

HALOT comes in two sections: vols 1-4 are the Hebrew section, and vol 5 is the Aramaic section. 

In Logos, these two sections open separately. They are sold as a package, but treated by the software almost as separate resources. It is a great way of handling them because the alternative would be quite confusing. However, the system is flawed in that both the Hebrew and Aramaic sides have the same title and icon, and therefore there is no convenient way for the user to know which one he is looking at.

There is no problem when the looks words up by double/right-clicking from a text because the software knows where to jump to. On the other hand, when the user goes to open an instance of the HALOT resource directly from the library, two options come up with no indication which is which (see screenshot below).

Additionally, once the user manages to get both a Hebrew and an Aramaic instance of HALOT open (in separate tabs), there is no way to tell from the tab title which is which without scanning the content of the lexicon for clues. (See screenshot below)

    You can do this yourself.  In the library you can edit the title of and the short name by smply clicking on the pencil icon and renaming it as sutis you.

    Below is how I have renamed mine. You can choose to do it however you like. (Click on image below to enlarge it.)

    If you rename the book as you like, it can look like this:
