Copy & Paste from Passage Guide, Exegetical Guide, and/or Explorer Window

I'm hoping this is a fairly simple question and I didn't see it addressed anywhere else so here goes...

I would like to be able to copy & paste from the passage guide, exegetical guide, or explorer windows. Specifically, in my workflow I'd like to be able to take the list of cross references generated and paste them into a Word document so I can have list.

For example: If I put in Acts 2:36 into the explorer window, it shows me the following cross references "matthew 28:18, Luke 2:11, Acts 2:23, Romans 4:9, 2 Corinthians 4:5" - I'd like to be able to copy that list of references and then paste them into word so I have a bulleted list. Incidentally, this would allow me to paste this same list into "Copy Bible Verses" where I could then get the text from all those references.

I believe this works in the Windows version, though I haven't played with it for a while.

I hope my rambling makes sense. I'm happy to provide screen shots or further clarification if needed.

Hi Russell

Just commenting from a Windows perspective - hoping that helps.

What you are looking for works in the Passage Guide - you can open the "Cross References" section and then copy the contents to the clipboard. You could then paste this directly into a Word document or into a Passage List for further processing.

This doesn't work - as far as I can see - in the Explorer tool as the set of cross references are not copyable.

Hope this helps - and translates to the Mac environment.

Logos 4 Mac can copy and paste in Print/Export for Explorer => Mt 28:18; Lk 2:11; Ac 2:23; Ro 14:9; 2 Co 4:5

Logos 4 PC (Windows) cannot select and copy in Print/Export preview (Mac version is special).

Likewise can use Print/Export for Passage Guide and Exegetical Guide since can copy preview text and paste. For example, Acts 2:36 Topics in Passage Guide:

Being and Attributes of God Book of Acts Church, Christ, Head of Churches

Confessing Christ Cross David Jesus, The Christ, Relation of, to the Father Life and Writings of John the Apostle Names of God in the New Testament Orator, Instance of

Parthia Peter Preaching Quotations in the NT Readings, Select, Peter at Pentecost Revivals, Instances of

Sermons Titles of Jesus Christ Zeal, Instances of

Noticed some Topics combined in paragraphs (from copy and paste), needs some editing after pasting.

Option: Print/Export to Rich Text File, then open file for copy and paste.

Hi Clint

In order to help with the cause of the crash we will need your 'logs'.

For instructions on how to post them see the Wiki I recommend using 'Logos Scribe'.

I am not a Log decoder but there are a few about here who will help you out.

Remember to gather the logs after a crash but before restarting Logos

Fantastic! I didn't realize there was even a print/export function for the Explorer tab (not to mention the Passage Guide & Exegetical guides). This is precisely what I was looking for. Thanks for the assistance!
