Simple Citation Option Book Chapter:Verse (Translation Abbreviation/Acronym)
I am going through all the citation styles and trying to find one which would do for example:
1 Therefore I exhort you, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a sacrifice—living, holy, and pleasing to God, which is your spiritual service of worship.
Romans 12:1 (LSB)
Or maybe just even Romans 12:1. All the available ones either omit the bible verse, and the ones that include it don't use the full book name yet include publisher and the full Translation Name.
I'm sure I've seen people quoting bible verses in the way I want though.
I appreciate for academic or book writing you need the fuller citations but for sharing bible verses with people it would be nice for a separate bible quote format setting.

Does something like the Quotation style in the Copy Bible Verses tool get close to what you are looking for?
If so, you could modify the style to suit your exact requirements.

Hi Graham, thanks. That's a nice tool to play with for the meantime.
What might make Logos more smooth is to have an option under "Citation Style" called something like "Bible Copy Style", which defaults to "Use Citation Style", but has a dropdown of the options from the Copy Bible Verses tool.
That means you can set a bible copy style, and copy copy and paste your bible as you are reading it - or leave it alone and it functions the same as now.

I'm afraid I'm not quite following what you are suggesting or what you are hoping to be able to do
Are you aware that from the Selection Menu (if you have it turned on in Program Settings), you can either just copy the text or use the last style selected in the Copy Bible Verses tool?
