Text comparison

I just switched from Libronix to Lgos 4. One of the features I liked in Libronix is that I could look at a text in all Bible versions. In Lgos 4 I am only able to look at it in my preferred version and top Bibles. Is there a way to view a Bible passage in all versions and how do I get to it?

If you create a collection (in the Collections window) that has Bibles in it, then that collection will show up in the drop-down selection list in the Text Comparison window. A collection created with the rule "type:bible" (type it into the Start with resources matching field without the quotes) will include all your Bibles, however you may want to create other collections that have fewer versions in them.

Also, you can type multiple versions directly into the Text Comparison window, just separate them with commas:

Sure is. Create a collection titled "all Bibles" and give it the following rule "type:Bible". If you want to limit it to just English bibles set the rule as "type:bible AND lang:english" (no quotation makes). (for help setting up collections visit http://wiki.logos.com/Collection )

Open the text comparison tool and click in the box where all the translations are listed. Scroll to the "collections" list and select the collection you wish to use.
