Missing dictionary lookup and copy verses

Matthew Lui

Hello,

Forgive me if this has already been addressed somewhere on the forums/FAQs but I couldn't find an answer after searching for a while.  As a Logos 3 user I frequently made use of the very convenient dictionary lookup & copy verse apps that appeared in my system tray whenever I had Logos 3 open.

With Logos 4 I no longer have those icons on my system tray.  As far as I know the only way to copy bible verses is to actually go into Logos and use the "copy bible" tab.  That is fine, but I can't find an equivalent for the dictionary lookup.  I can't seem to find a way even look up an English word in the Oxford English Dictionary using Logos at all.  Can someone show me how?  Also, if there's a way to get those two icons back onto my system tray, that would be awesome.  I was thinking about installing Logos 3 to run alongside Logos 4 literally just for those two icons.

Lookup is found on the Right Click Menu in Logos4. In this wiki look under the article Selection.

You are right about Copy Bible Verse. You can use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl Alt B to quickly open this feature. You might want to view the wiki page Copy Bible Verse to glen new features to it.

Matthew, it is as simple as typing the word you are looking for in the reference box of the COED and hitting Enter.
