    1) Logos needs a FOLLOW ONLY option for commentaries. (just like the mobile version has had for YEARS.) Everyone wants / needs this basic function.

    2) Logos needs an option to open a tab (Bible, commentary, etc) on the left or right side. Keyboard shortcuts for opening a new Bible tab (or commentary, etc) are useless if you have to then move the new tab to the right place.

    I've had to unlink all my study bible notes from Bibles because of unintended reference jumps when I click in the study bible notes. "Follow only" is wonderful in the mobile app , and would be a perfect solution for this problem on the desktop.

    Yes, it becomes frustrating especially in large print like I have because the wheel on my mouse needs to scroll down the commentary to read, while the place in my bible goes sometimes 2 chapters ahead making it time consuming to find my place where I left off. If the mobile app has it, (thank you) why is it not a feature in the desktop where we do most of our studying? Thank you for considering.

    I don't understand why this isn't a Pri 1 for Logos.  This works great on mobile.  I have no explanation for why they don't enable this on the desktop where it is even more important.

    Please add the Follow Only option for links to the desktop. I use this option all the time on the mobile version. While I use Multiview in my desktop layouts, this is not a sufficient substitute for the Follow Only option—it's complentary (both Multiview and Follow Only are necessary in my opinion). I find myself having to turn off a link for a resource in my layout and then turn the link for the resource back on as a poor person's substitute for Follow Only.

    Follow Only option in mobile app:

    P.S. I would have thought this would already have been a feedback item, but the Search option on the website didn't show me an existing item for this

    I've never set up a link set in my iPad app, so I never knew this was a thing before seeing this. Yes, please bring this to the desktop app!

    I can’t believe it’s not butter, I mean I can’t believe it’s not on the desktop.

    Because multi-view performs much the same function but in a different manner, I suspect this requires greater user interest than if the feature was entirely missing.

    OK if there’s only two things you do today, make this the other one 🤣

    I am puzzled by this. Mind you I don't use the mobile app but this should be controlled by whether the note is applied to selection or reference just as it is on the desktop. It shouldn't be tied to the display choices.

    PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE. This is my biggest frustration with Logos - if you're studying a passage, you don't want the passage to scroll when you're scrolling down to read the commentary. PLEASE implement this.

    Is there still no update on this in 2025?

    While waiting for Logos to (perhaps) implement this feature remember that the multiview panel was Logos response to meeting this need.
