Link Set in Commentaries question of Auto Scroll

Hello everyone,

I have several Commentaries that open in my layout under by preferred Bible.  One will automatically update as I'm scrolling through my Bible but the others will not.

I did find an option within each Commentary call "Link Set" that gives me an option of A, B, C, D, E, F or None.

If I set this up, will it allow the other Commentaries to "Auto Scroll" while I move through my Bible?

Thanks again,

    You are indeed correct.

    All resources that are assigned the same link letter (and that can scroll together) will.

    The downside of this is that there's no 'leader'. So if you move your commentary text, your Bible(s) will bounce around.

    Some solve this issue by keeping multiple copies of the same Bible open, one linked, the other not.

    One problem I have when I link several commentary sets with my bible is that not all the commentaries have something written on a given verse. In another Bible study software program that I have, it highlights the commentaries that has something on the verse I’m studying. It would be helpful if Logos had a similar way to know which commentaries had written something on a verse.

    Logos 4 has Passage Guide commentary and collection sections that show verses in a commentary.  Cited By tool can search collections and series for verse reference (so can search).

    Personally prefer UBS Handbook for commentary series.  When want to look at another commentary with verse, click in commentary (set focus, check verse reference), click "+" to open new tab, on right side: Logos 4 shows commentaries in prioritized order that have verse, click on desired commentary.

    Keep Smiling [:)]
