What is the advantage of using the cited by tool? It looks like that it has the same information as the passage guide, if you have your user created collections in the passage guide. Thanks.

    Yup, it's essentially the same info, presented in a slightly different way:

    Passage Guide with Collections sections in it

    There are sometimes multiple ways of accomplishing the same task in Logos. Cited By might be easier to set up to include all your collections, because it's just a matter of clicking checkboxes rather than creating a guide template with multiple Collections sections in it, each of which you have to select from a dropdown in. And as your list of collections increases, you'd have to keep remembering to add the new ones into your custom template.

    EDIT: You'd have to remember in Cited By too, but its list automatically shows all your available collections, and you just have to turn on more checkboxes to include them:

    Finally, on my machine I find the Cited By tool to be just a little snappier at keeping up with my scrolling in my Bible when I have the two of them linked together on the same link set than the Passage Guide. However I haven't tested it thoroughly with every single one of my collections included, as I have a HUGE number of them.
