Once a verse of scripture has been highlighted can that highlight be removed
Hi @Ronnie Enoch ,
Yes it can.
Select the highlighted text → Press CTRL+SHIFT+K simultaneously, CMD+SHIFT+K if on MacOS.
Three ways: 1. Select the highlight and then press the "R" key. 2. Select the highlight with a right-click, from the selection menu select "Open notes and highlights" ,choose the particular highlight you want to remove, when the note opens delete the note and the associated highlight will be removed. 3. Select the Notes menu from the toolbar, select "Show notes and highlights" dropdown, find the notebook that the highlight was saved into and uncheck it. This third way doesn't remove the highlight it just hides it.
All of these are useful at different times depending on what you want to accomplish.
Be careful with the "R" key because it will remove all highlights associated with the selection which might not be what you want. If you have a word highlighted with one style and the paragraph in which the word is found with another, both highlights will be removed for the selection. The paragraph highlight will be divided into two anchor segments with the word you just selected "R" on excluded.
Also if you have mapped the "R" key to a highlight style, then obviously it will no longer function to remove. This hotkey, as well as the "N" key (to add a note), is not listed in the Logos Hotkey table but they are most useful.
I didn't know the 'R' trick. It has odd plus and minus.
Removes exactly what is selected (with character select on). So, a highlighted 'Kingdom of God' and selected 'of' > R, results in two words highlighted.
That has its uses. But could be headachy!

The recent security update to the web app negativity impacts my usage and functionality. Does anyone know whether the Desktop App has similar connectivity / interoperability to the Web App, in that will the Desktop App also disseminate information amongst my mobile devices?

In version 49 I could start a Bible reading plan and divide it by pericopes. That doesn't seem to be available in version 50. Am I missing something? That was very useful. If it is not there, are there plans to add it back in future versions?

I have deleted, by mistake, a Logos Layout. Is there a way to recover the Layout?
The emails I get for new forum messages often have no content except the poster's subject. This seems to be a new phenomenon. Is this intentional? And while we're talking about the forum, to post a message requires me to choose certain things, such as platform, that do not apply.
