Yes, as I am trying to make the switch from Word to Sermon Builder, I am missing the layout functions of Word. For example, I have always written my sermons in 2 columns (it makes it easier to not lose my place as I glance down at my outline). Also, I would love to customize what "Heading 1," "Heading 2," etc. look like (maybe bold, with color, etc.). In Word, I can click at the top and "Update Heading 1 to match selection." I know the folks at Logos have a lot going on, but if they could build a few more features like these into SB, I think they would win over and keep a lot of us who have always used Word or Pages.

@davidcwatson81-76, thanks for your feedback. We have a spec for this and hope to be able to get to it in the near future.

@phil-gons Thank you. I appreciate how much work you all must be doing, and you're willingness to accept feedback to help us!

I like and support this idea for the same reasons as David Watson. But still I do not think that the restrictive pallette is all that bad. Visual cues are helpful if one does not want to be too bound to the manuscript. However, it does not really matter to anyone other than the pastor. The sermon itself is meant for oral delivery, is it not?
powering.
Btw. I also print my sermons and deliver them from the pulpit.

Yes, I'm a bit surprised I can't set text to gray. I use light gray to "hide" parts of the sermon that I've cut because of time but might still use for further explanations

I think this would be incredibly helpful, especially in the digital age we are in today. Many of our teams (social media, Sunday producers, Propresentor) need to pull different parts of our sermons quickly. By creating this feature it will allow us to better serve our times and save a bunch of time.

@Phil Gons (Logos) Has there been any progress on this? It's my only major grip with sermon builder. It would be great to be able to set my own formatting defaults. With the various headings and such.
