Logos suddenly started freezing for a few seconds every few minutes

There was an error rendering this rich post.

I have used Logos for about five months now for my weekly sermon writing, but in the past week, the software has been freezing up for a few seconds while typing. Task Manager is revealing that at random intervals, Logos is jumping to use more than a gigabyte of RAM, but I am not sure what is causing this. Restarting my computer works sometimes, but it is a temporary solution at best. It is not the end of the world, but it is certainly annoying, so if anyone can provide some advice that would be greatly appreciated!

The forums are not permitting me to provide a direct link, but I would suggest following these instructions given by Andrew Batishko in the thread below:

"If you have been experiencing higher than expected memory usage over time with Logos, can you please try entering the following command in the command box and selecting the corresponding option: set accessibility to no

You will then need to restart the application."

location of anchors are not consistent
All of my anchors are linked to verses, not words. That said, most of the anchors are before the verse number, but sometimes they are after. I have checked the notes and they are all in fact linked to the verses. What is causing this, and does it matter?
Why are my notes this way?
I have been taking notes and it looks fine in the Windows app but in the web and the Android app some texts are grey out or dark black. Logos Window app default to white text. Is there a way to fix it? Here's a picture. I check my notes in the web app.
Missing options in Factbook
The tabs in red boxes appear in one belief system record but not in another.

Books on the history of Christianity
Can anyone offer a suggestion for a good book published by Logos on the history of Christianity? I am currently reading 'A History of Christianity' by Owen Chadwick that I checked out at our local library, but he is a strong supporter of the Catholic church, which I am not a member of. Looking for a more neutral view of…
