I HATE the new click anywhere in the tab rather than on the toggle

MJ. Smith · 2025-02-12T06:46:58+00:00

There was an error rendering this rich post.

I am constantly doing the following:

Select view
Select interlinear
Turn on toggle
Select manuscript/translation
Click to be outside selection box i.e. click on empty place on tab turning toggle off
Turn on toggle

Sometimes I've turned the toggle on 3 times before I successfully get it on - I am not use to tablets/mobiles where one has to use fuzzy areas … I am used to the toggle switch being the toggle switch and the tab being a tab.

I know you are responding to some loud voices, and I won't get it reverted, but I want you to know this is a real pain and a questionable design decision.

What are you trying to accomplish in step 5?

Dave Hooton

@MJ. Smith, I don't follow Step 5. By "Tab" do you mean the area containing the toggle, below, because

that definitely will turn off the toggle, but it is not "outside selection box". Clicking in the panel (preferably in empty space) will dismiss the box without affecting the toggle.

The change widens the area for selecting the toggle, but clicking that area in Logos v.39.1 does not dismiss the selection box.

Dismiss the popup

As Dave says, you dismiss the popup by clicking away from it. Anywhere will do. We haven't changed that behavior.

Duh … I have over the years used the tab as "the clicking away from it" - you have changed the behavior in a way that until my muscle memory resets is a real pain.
