Let Content "Bible information" have Bible Item Slide Options

Currently you can make a content slide auto-populate some scripture by putting your bible address in brackets such as [[John 1:1]]. This auto-population is treated as a sperate text field in the slide itself so it does not follow the main text box formatting. This has no control over how you are able to present your scripture like the Bible Item slides such as "Block paragraphs" vs "Fully formatted", "Include verse numbers", "Section headers", ect…

This also applies to your alternate screens. Say I have a alternate screen for a direct to livestream NDI. The auto-populated scripture cannot be changed from its automatic Fully Formatted type and extra steps are needed, if not out right replacing [[John 1:1]] with the scripture text itself, to make everything fit in the screen limitations that I have created for the livestream. This has been stressful to teach someone that doesn't have the skill, knowledge, or time I do to edit and fix on a short notice.

Many Old Testament texts such as Isaiah and Psalms many times are formatted in ways that aren't easily readable on lower thirds for screens unless the text gets formatted into block paragraphs.

Alternatively these options could be added to the smart media editor and then be applied to the content slide.

These are just my thoughts. If there are options I am missing I would love to be educated. - Kaleb
