Two UI Enhancement Suggestions for Logos 4
First, I just want to say that I feel that Logos 4 is a marvelous piece of engineering. I actually develope with WPF, and I point to Logos 4 as an example of the elegance that can be obtained with the technology.
Two things that would make it even more useful (for me, at least):
1) I like that I can save a layout, and that the layout sychronizes with my other PC. However, for my daily reading layout, it is annoying that I need to manually go and update it to the current snapshot. It would be nice if there were a way to say "for this layout, any manual changes that I make are automatically saved". I realize that this presents some possible complications - like how do I make it stop tracking changes to this layout? A possible answer to that would be that it continues doing it until I manually select a different named layout.
2) I like that I can drag a layout from the layout popup window to the shortcut toolbar. However, while I can do many useful things with the shortcut that is created, "Update to current snapshot" is not one of them. It would be really handy if, when I put the layout on the shortcut bar, if the context menu also had this option.
Thanks in advance for your consideration.

I agree David, and if Option 2 were enabled, the first suggestion would be slightly diminished in urgency.

Agreed. Option 1 would be ideal for extreme laziness, but option 2 would be a perfectly acceptable alternative.

The easiest thing would simply be if cmd-s/ctrl-s worked for "save/update current layout", as has already been suggested several times.

I don't like Ctrl-S for this, as Ctrl-S almost universally means "save the current document". To me, the current layout isn't really a document. That said, some hotkey combination should update the active, named layout.
