New user question about resources

Mark Fuss

I am new to Logos 4 and I must say that I am quite impressed with the program so far. I have used BibleWorks for a number of years now and plan to use Logos 4 to supplement what I do in BW. Since I am new to Logos, there is much I do not know and one rather simple matter that I have not yet been able to figure out is how to have Logos open the Bibles that I want when I search on a passage. It opens NASB95, KJV, NIV, ESV, and NRSV automatically. What I would like is for the program to open several of those plus several Greek NT versions automatically along with the notes from the MacArthur Study Bible but, as I stated, I cannot figure out how to do this. In fact, I do not even have a very good handle on the program nomenclature to be able to intelligently pursue this on my own. If someone can point me in the right direction, I would be most grateful.

Hi Mark - and welcome to the forums, glad you are enjoying your Logos experience.

To change which resources are opened when you search on a passage requires you to prioritise the resources in your library. For information on how to do this please see http://wiki.logos.com/Prioritizing. This should help you get to what you are looking for.

If you want further control over this, you need to look at creating, saving and using your own layouts. Again, more information about this is at http://wiki.logos.com/Layouts__

Hope this helps you to get started down this path - please come back with any questions.

In addition to all that great advice there are also some very helpful tutorial videos on the front page of the Logos Wiki.   I would carve out some time to work your way through each tutorial - it really helps to have someone actually show you how to do it!

Enjoy learning Logos!

Thanks to both Graham and Richard. After watching a few of the videos, I now have this particular feature set the way I prefer.
