Layouts

Hello,

Until very recently, whenever I clicked on the Home button from the home page in Logos 4, I would automatically go to my last used layout for reading with everything there as I last left it.

Now, however, I'm taken to a blank screen and have to select my desired layout from the layout drop down list. How can I save my preferred layout so that it automatically loads whenever I go there?

Thanks,

Jim

    If you turn off "Show home page at startup" in the Customize menu at the lower left of the Home Page, then whenever you open Logos, it will open back up to your last used Layout. You can get to the Home page from there by clicking the Home button, and then when you click the Home button again, it will return to your Layout. However if you have that "Show home page at startup" checkbox turned on, Logos will open up to the Home page with only a blank layout behind it, so when you click the Home button you will not get your last used Layout.

    Hello, and thanks for the prompt reply. I wasn't expecting to "lose" my last saved layout when I selected to show my home page at startup from the Customize menu. Still being able to go directly to my last saved layout, even when showing the home page at startup first would be nice.

    Hi James, if you did indeed save the layout, you have not "lost" it. You can always open it again from the Layouts menu. If you want to get to it more quickly, you can drag it from the Layouts menu to the Shortcut bar (this will make a shortcut to it; it will still be on the Layouts menu too) and then it will just be one click away at all times, even when the Home Page is up. If you didn't purposefully save the layout, you can recreate it and learn about how to save layouts here: http://wiki.logos.com/Layouts
