Brand new Logos user, very excited. Unfortunately, I can't figure out how to do the first thing I need. How would I do a search for all perfect infinitives in the Greek NT and Septuagint?
Welcome!
To run the search you want you click on the search icon/select morph select the text you want to search and type @VR?N. Actually when you type the @ a drop down will allow you to select the morphology.
To search both the GNT and LXX you need to create a collection that has those two texts. The collections are found under tools. Here is a screenshot of the search and the collection.
Welcome
Awesome! This is why we use LOGOS right? Can't quite get it to work. Here's a screenshot. Why is it searching 23 resources when my collection only has 2 resources in it?
Well, that's not going to help. The rich text editor is not too user friendly. How do you insert a screenshot and make it bigger? I attempted to make it bigger by going into the edit function in the text editor, but there's no way to constrain proportions so I don't have a chance.
I got curious (not having tried morph searches in the past) and found that it works fine, but my results seem to differ from yours - that may be due to the different resources we use: my LXX has no Logos morphology and my NA27 neither, thus Logos morph yields zero, but GRAMCORD and Swanson get the same number of hits:
Is the big difference to your results really attributable to aparatuses and variant readings? When I save the results as a passage list, it says it contains only 114 entries, see attached 8255.VRN_in_greek_bible_text_morphed.rtf
Still curious,

but GRAMCORD and Swanson get the same number of hits:
Different Morphologies don't use the same morphological tags.
In Logos morphology @VR?N = Verb, Perfect, Infinitive so you have to type and then select:
Verb + (under Tense)Perfect + (under Mood) Infinitive
and run separate searches for your NA27 (whether Swanson morph or Logos morph) and Septuaginta (GRAMCORD morph).
Why is it searching 23 resources when my collection only has 2 resources in it?
And now we can see your screenshot, we can answer your main question. I'm afraid the answer is "I don't know"! Everything looks OK. I have just two suggestions:
