Can I link a PAGES or WORD document to a note? What about linking a note to another note?
I don't know if it is possible to do it with the Logos software, but linking notes in Obsidian from the books or articles I read on Logos works for me.
I link one note to another all the time. I have many "chains" that I update and change regularly. I've posted it before but here it is again….
Note 1
Reference: Joh 316.
Title….
Verse talks about believing in Jesus.

Prev:
______________________ end of Note 1
Note 2
Reference: Joh 8:24
Title…..
Next: Joh 8:24
Prev: Begining
____________________ end of Note 2
What I do is
Go to Note 2, highlight the word "Next" in Note 2 and then click on the "three dots" in the upper right corner, then choose "copy location" (ctrl-alt-c for windows).
Then go to Note 1 and highlight "Next" then click on "chain symbol" and paste, and click "Save". This way I can click on "Next" in Note 1 and go directly to Note 2.
In Note 2, I do the reverse by going to Note 1, highlighting "Prev" and clicking on the "three dots" in the upper right hand corner, then "copy location", then go to Note 2 highlight the word "Prev" in the Note, click on the "chain symbol" and paste, then click "Save".
This way I can go back and forth through my "chain" of Notes just by clicking "Next" and "Prev". It's a bit of work, I agree…. but it is very helpful to me to be able to go up and down my chains quickly.
I have been doing this since I came to Logos from WordSearch. I do wish there was a better way, but this works for me. 😎
If you have a specific Microsoft Word document that you want to link to, an easy way would be to upload it to a cloud storage platform like OneDrive, Google Drive or Proton Drive and then creating a share link and inserting that share link into your Note file in Logos.
Regarding linkage to Word files: since some time now, Logos supports the file:///…. (or file:\\\… both will work) parameter to link local files, so no upload to cloud or a local webserserver is needed anymore.
You can easily use file:\\\C:\test-folder\test.docx to link to file test.docx in folder C:\test-folder - just type a text in your note, select it and then use the chain-link-button in the notes editor and put the file:/// parameter into it (don't use quotes). Clicking the blue text in the note then will open Word if needed and show the file.

I would have sworn that at one time I had insights and translations showed as 2 tabs in the same sidebar but now I cannot tab between them, if I open one it closes the other … which makes switching between them a multistep process.

Is it possible to change the default note anchor to a basic bible reference? When I currently make a new note, it defaults it to the Bible translation(NASB) instead of just the passage that could be seen in any translation.
Wanting the full text to show in my notes of my scripture anchors. To me there’s isn’t any rhyme or reason as to when it shows full text vs just the reference. I have tried every which way but sideways and can’t for the life of me find a way for the full text to show consistently. I select/highlight exactly the same way…
