What is your most desired missing feature to be included in the next Mac version?

Fitting for the first post to the Mac forum, what is your most desired missing feature that you would like to have included in the next Mac version?

For me, it is the ability to switch between resources in the same window (like we can do so in the current windows version).

I am thankful to be able to read my resources on my mac, but I miss the notes, mark up, bible reading plan.

Jack Caviness

If I must choose only one missing feature, I would like to see parallel associations.

Jack

John Murphy

Definitely, PRA's.

J.R. Miller

switching between resources using the arrow key.

David Buckham

Since switching between resources was already mentioned, I would love to see PBBs functional.

all about Christ,

I would have to agree with Dennis. I am by no means a Bible scholar but I would like the ability to take notes in Logos and be able to search trough them along with the ability to mark up (underline and highlight) along with the bible reading plans. I guess on benefit for me is I've never used the windows version before so I don't know what the mac version is missing.

God Bless

I would prefer that those resources not yet working get fast implementation. Among those is, for example, the Synopsis Quatuor Evangeliorum, something sorely needed.

Wes Saad

Bible speed search is one feature I miss most. I'd also like the UI improved some, way too much white space. Need to see verse lists return. Oh wait, did you say just one feature?

Neal Gordon

Switching between resources with the arrow key, and the ability to import my own sermon files.

Oh and I don't want to be greedy but support for the time line addin would be nice too [:)]

Wes Saad

I managed to forget a huge one: printing.

J.R. Miller

I have to add my props for this feature. I have gotten used to working around it, but boy I remember the how much I used it and how helpful it really is!!

Corby Stephens

First, and not to be too obnoxious as a first time poster and new user to the app, but this forum is kinda odd. I mean, I just want to post this as another entry in this thread, not as a reply to someone else's entry. But there is no "post comment" or "reply" button, except under someone else's entry. Unless my browser isn't showing it or something, this forum, from a technical standpoint, could be a little easier to use.

Anyway, I would love to see the option to sync the Exegetical Guide and the various Parallel Bible Versions window so that if I update one, the other automatically syncs up to the same place. That would be great for any window that is open to a Biblical text, like commentaries.

Corby Stephens

OK, I see how it works (the forum). It did what I wanted it to do, but it presented itself in such a way that it appeared like it was going to do something else. Other forum systems (phpBB, vBulletin, etc), when you click on a "Reply" button that is within the div of someone else's post, it replies to that particular post, not the whole topic. Anyway, now I know. Maybe add a Reply button at the top and/or bottom of the page?

OK, I'm done.

Jonathan Snyder

printing. notes. exporting references to other programs.

Josh Tomlinson

easier updates. for sure. using sparkle or some other framework.

meitnik

simple:

1. Note taking

2. Highlilting--with different colors please

3. intelligent copy/paste-- with unicode support for Hebrew/Greek etc..

4. Reading plan--both Jewish and Christian bibles

5. anything to finish off proper Hebrew support

Chuck Lindsey

#1 for me is the linking of resources together (i.e. Strongs resources all change when the number is clicked)

#2 The ability to add notes to a verse.

#3 PBB

Kevin Pierpont

I'd like to see access to PBB's added too - have many PBB resources I'd like to use.

Steve Workman

These are all great suggestions. Logos does have a deticated email address for this. It is Macfeedback@logos.com.

J.R. Miller

These are all great suggestions. Logos does have a deticated email address for this. It is Macfeedback@logos.com.

They also have a dedicated forum :-)

A Linux port of the Mac program is my most desired missing feature.

Thanks for asking! [:)]

Jason G. Barnhart

I love Libronix and am very glad to see a Mac version. I would like to see a Bible reading plan like the one on the Windows side.

Garrett Ho

PBB please

After that, an autoupdate feature within the application for both the application and library files. And also print/export.

Matt Barker

Support for Addins - I'd really love to be able to use the Sermon File Addin.

Jason Mc

tabs. tabs. tabs. tabs. tabs. tabs pleeeeeaaaasssssssseeeeeee.

Craig Rhoades

1 - Notes (with links), 2 - Bible Reading Plan, 3 - Customizable Toolbar.

Fewer bugs would be awesome, too.

Craig Rhoades

...are you saying that email is the preferred method to make these suggestions, or is this just FYI? It is helpful for me to see this in a discussion forum, and I hope it is helpful for Logos developers as well.

Gavin Anthony

Yes, I definitely agree--I really miss the Bible speed search!

Wes Saad

This post just reminded me one more: Bible copy tool. I use the PC version frequently, would like to see something as flexible on the Mac.

Corby Stephens

Search by Strongs numbers? Is there already a quick way to do this?

J.R. Miller

I would like to add that I do miss the home page for collections. Not having access to things like my John Piper sermon Home Page, makes finding his relevant sermons relatively impossible (the time it takes is far too great vs. the return). I would like to be able to gain access to these third party home pages again if possible.

Luuk Dondorp

All of the Windows features, esp:

PBB
Notes (drag/drop + linking + ext web linking + maybe something like Evernote
Printing

Luuk

Donovan R. Palmer

I guess based on some of the other threads, it would be nice to see a resource updater similar to the windows one.

Jeffrey Hands

Notes, mark up and bible reading plan.... My thoughts exactly! The notes and mark up tools in QuickVerse and Accordance are really lacking compared to Logos Windows version, which amount to my favorite features of Logos, making it perfect for daily reading and devotions.

Clive Walters

Never used the Logos PC version.

Have a feature from Online Bible for Mac (OLB) that is very efficient for me: 'Copy Verses'.

What is so nice is that a straight Command&7 will take me back and forth between a WP and OLB. I can move from the WP at the insertion point I want, and key in the verse and paste it back automatically. The real neat part is if I want a bit of scripture I only have to highlight a bit of a verse or verses, and it will paste in the whole of it. There are also settings to include/exclude footnotes; full of short verse reference; paste reference at front or end etc. It is so smooth. Please make Logos work as smoothly.

Clive Walters

One more thing ... the Book Reader. I am missing a lot of important stuff by not having this.

Intelligent copy & paste w/ footnoting - w/ pasting in to Pages & Word & Open Office

(If I need to write up a plan with a bunch of verse quotations, I go back to the Windows version and use the custom bible verse quotation feature from the system tray. I usually like to have the verse pasted with the Book, Chapter & Verse in bold on the first line and then the quotation in its own paragraph. But sometimes I like to change that up. I can't figure out how to do anything like that at all in the Mac version.)

Second runner up for me is being able to quickly change my bible version to a different version without pulling up a second "parallel bible versions" window.

Josh Tomlinson

I don't want to sound like a jerk. I really love Logos for Mac, but I really really really hate the icon. I made a version of the purple, blue, green one that anyone can use if you'd like. I know it's not the best, but it looks a lot better on the dock.

Rob Taylor

Second runner up for me is being able to quickly change my bible version to a different version without pulling up a second "parallel bible versions" window.

Done! Checkout the new update 1.2

mark e kernan

It may sound a bit geeky, but I really miss the sentence diagraming tool (unless I am simply unable to locate it). It was nice to diagram and save my work in Logos.

David Buckham

I will second that sentence diagramming tool. I have been playing with my sermon prep format and I believe this would be more beneficial. I know there are places online that I can do diagram for free (or just using paper and pencil...how neanderthal). In Logos Mac, verse diagramming would be beneficial.

all about Christ,
David

Michael Kares

Printing page ranges and the auto-lookup feature would be very, very, helpful. Navigating thru resources in one window would be nice too...desktop gets cluttered fast--even with a second monitor!

Blessings

Herb Hofer

To install logus4.....but does'nt work . need help,can you help me? herb

Gary Robinson

I agree. It's been too long. Let's get it done
