It would be great if the translation sidebar would recognize text highlighted in pop-up footnotes. At present we have to copy and paste to Google Translate in a browser.

    Apparently Logos initially had this functionality (https://community.logos.com/forums/t/211319.aspx). I also would like to see this feature return instead of having to paste the text into Google.

    Hello and good day!

    When using the Translate tool in Logos, it would be very helpful if the pop-up texts (e.g., verse previews, footnotes, or original language glosses that appear on hover) were also automatically translated when the translation feature is active. This would significantly improve the reading experience for non-English users, especially when studying resources that include embedded Hebrew, Greek, or Latin content.

    Currently, only the main text is translated, but tooltips and other hover-based texts remain in their original language. Could these elements also be passed through the translation service?
