I cannot get my LXX resource to show in BWS... I have updated resources, restarted etc.

There is no settings menu in Septuagint Translation bar to give me options to select an LXX version - However in the Textual Searches within BWS I am getting results

I am very new to this - thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

    The LXX has a separate section in the Guide. Have you inserted that section? What language are you using for the BWS? I believe that only the Greek BWS supports it.

    Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

    Thanks for replying MJ. Smith - I am sending a screenshot of what I am looking at which I hope helps.

    I think I have inserted (it was already inserted) the LXX section. I am looking up a Greek word, but I am not sure if this is what you mean by "Greek BWS". If not can you point me in the right direction for this?

    Thanks again

    Greek BWS = Bible Word Study with a Greek lemma

    On the LXX section, if you hover on the section bar you will see a setting option - is it pointing to a version you own?

    For the Septuagint section to return results you need either

    For this feature to work you need either the Logos LXX or Logos LXX Swete Septuagints. Do you have either of those?

    Thank you both -

    yes, I am looking up Greek lemma

    No, LXX section is not even giving me a 'settings' option like the other sections do and it is also still greyed out as per previous image

    I have the following version (image) - let me know if this is not correct - I may need to get the correct version although I just purchased this, believing it was one of the two I needed.
