Multiple Lexicons on Click

Is there a way to get multiple lexicons to update with a specific word? In Logos 3, I had it set up so that when I clicked on BDAG in the Exegetical Guide (under the word by word) it would also look that word up in LSJ. So, when I went over to my lexicon, I could just flip over to LSJ to see the same word. It'd be nice to do that for Hebrew as well (BDB, etc.

There is not a way to have two or more resources open at the same time with a double click as in 3.0.

One thing you can do is open both lexicons and link them together. Then when your preferred one moves to the correct entry the second one will move there as well.

Sure, that's what I tried. I prioritized LEH for the LXX. When I double click on a word, it brings the word up in LEH.

I have the Exeg. guide set up for Link Set "A", and I have LEH and LSJ set up for link set "B". I also tried prioritizing LSJ, but that didn't seem to help. For kicks, I linked BDAG in there too, and it appears that BDAG brings up the Greek word where the page number goes. So, LEH links with BDAG. LSJ, however, only seems to key off the page number and doesn't update with the other two.

I remember a setting in Logos 3 that addressed this problem, but can't seem to find it in Logos 4.

I don't think LSJ is indexed by lemma in LE4 so the linking as suggested does not work. The only index listed is by page. It does appear to be searchable by lemma though. I commented about this in another thread a week ago and have yet to see any response.

The difference seems to be that in 3.0 LSJ could be navigated by lemma and could be a keylink destination for Greek text. It can't be navigated by lemma in 4.0 and keylinking is quite different in 4.0. Unless Logos enables the Greek headword index of 3.0, it does not seem possible to link this resource in any useful way.

Logos does need to address this issue.

BTW: you may have noticed that Intermediate Greek Lexicon will work in this situation.

I've a sufficient number of lexicons working with this for both Greek and Hebrew, but in addition to LSJ, the Hebrew TLOT (recently added to Logos) also fails to update when linked with BDB. TWOT, however, seems to update appropriately.
