Custom Maps

It would be awesome to be able to remove or add cities, rivers, paths and key locations. Add titles or notes. I love the maps, but often find they don’t have the info I want if I want to use them as a slide. I’d also love to be able to measure distances between two points!

Agreed! My thought is that Logos starts with a blank geographical map and has checkboxes for locations you want added to the map. In this way it could be customized for each class or sermon.

If I am studying, say, Genesis, and want to locate a place, the atlas takes me right there.

Fine.

But what I think is really relevant and helpful would be to see where this place sits compared to other common familiar places. If I choose a map from a later Biblical time, that first place may not show up or show up easily.

I need an option where after I locate the place, I can add layers of other sites, either by era or by importance.

thank you

Agreed! Blank maps with optional layers e.g., mountains, altars, cities by time period, kingdom boundaries, etc.

This would be a tremendous help to teachers who want to focus their students on specific locations for a particular lesson, without having a lot of other locations on a map that is displayed through a projector or used as a handout.

Wonder if we'll ever get anything like this. Seems like such a common tool people would use.

Allow us to override Logos bias by attaching n - using the creation stories of Genesis as an example
Because of its reference to image, I prefer to use the Genesis 1 reference for the creation of mankind rather than Genesis 2. This is especially important to me in the current political environment as Genesis 1 has an androgynous Adam rather than a male Adam. However, Logos not only makes Genesis 2 the primary text, it…
Interface For An AI Platform To Search Resources In Logos
As a retired software developer/architect I wondered about the possibility of creating an external interface to Logos so a AI platform like Claude.ai or ChatGPT could be used to accelerate exegesis. Today I have to hand search multiple resources to find the information I need, sometimes I have to open the resources and…
Book notes - Desktop App
I use Logos Notes a lot and they are great but what I'd like to do is to be able to make notes on a book, perhaps a comment field on the book info page. For example: review notes, impressions, strengths/weaknesses, differences between editions etc. I already use Tags but they don't provide this sort of freeform text.
Library: Log library searches in history
Currently there is a search log for a lot of searches and actions (under tools -> history) but if you search something in the library it doesn't get saved there. Please add library searches to this log. I use this a lot. Or as a bonus you could also add the possibility to navigate to earlier library searches like in the…
Logos Launcher
Would it be possible to wrap the application in a launcher that provides functionality such as opening a saved workspace instead of having to open the application and change it via program settings. The launcher could also allow an update before launch.
