Passage Lists

ASUNDER

Could you make the passage lists easier to use please.

Could you give it subfolders. I've been using them for three days and already my window is filled up with a list of passage lists.

You're supposed to be able to drag and drop scriptures onto an open passage list window but it never works. It just opens the Bible in a new tab.

The right click menu could be better too. I have so many passage lists now, that they get crowded out. The right click menu has an entry limit. So if I want to add a passage to an existing passage list I first have to go to the Documents, find the list, open it, then it registers it in the right click menu. That's too much work. So could you make the three most recent passage lists in there, and/or whatever ones are currently open, and then have a child drop down menu to show all passage lists in a branching tree menu; if we can have subfolders too.

Could we not have to go through the Documents tool to get to our passage lists. I can't seem to put a favorite on the toolbar that goes directly to the passage lists only. The Documents tool is getting swamped with so many things. I don't want to first list hundreds of things at the time that I'm not trying to use right now. As in, not having to filter out other things to use my passage lists. I want a dedicated space for passage lists itself. Unless there is a better way of collecting passages; maybe notebooks. ?

Just a suggestion … breaking out your discussion into concrete changes/additions.

But I agree. Passage Lists are an odd duck in the Logosian culture. For some traditions, they're quite fundamental (easily seen in hard-copy back-of-the-Bible topic lists; which verses get chosen). But in the software, they were (and are) still a catch-as-catch-can.

• If you right-click a Bible's passage, there's a choice of Passage Lists to add to (but not create).
• If you do a search, with a list of passages, you can create a new list, not add (extra steps to combine, etc)
• If you right-click a verse in a non-Bible, you can create a single-verse list, but not add. That's strange.

And so on. Plus the ones you list. My impression is the amalgam of designs were from people who don't use passage lists. Just an impression. Sort of a cold list-management approach.

ADDED: I didn't know 'Passage List' accepts any type of tagged writing … eg greek authors, etc. To me 'passage' is a Bible. But I'm an oldie. Haven't tried what a merge would do.
