Add search and filter to Clippings

Josiah Young

I have long Clippings docs, and I would like to search both the clipping text and my notes on the clippings. Plain text search would be a minimum, but an option would be showing categories (e.g., see all clippings with references in a particular Bible book, or that contain references to a particular Bible verse). Similarly, allowing to filter for clippings from a particular resource would be helpful. Basic search in Logos just pulls up the Clipping doc and does not help with navigation inside a long Clipping doc.

I agree with this suggestion. When searching for a word or phrase in my long clippings, using the Clippings search, I expected that all found words or phrases would be highlighted and that one could navigate to the next highlighted search result using something like an up/down arrow. Also, the search results window/dialog box should indicate the number of hits. Sadly, this is not the case. Given the sophistication of your search engine, which I love, this must be an oversight.

I just used the main search tool, and as suggested by another user, when one selects the "Docs" search category and enters words, phrases, or tags located in one's clippings, the search tool will find all the clippings where the search terms exist. You will be presented with all clippings which have any of the search terms. Just select the clipping where you want to find the search terms. The search terms are highlighted as one would expect. So, this solves my problem. I only wish that I could do this type of search while in my clippings.
