Bug(?): Layout do not remember my Choice of Bible Texts in Bible Harmony

Hi,

I like to have a layout as follows for NT Gospels Study Layout:

I open two copies of Aland's Synopsis of the 4 Gospels, one in NASB95 another in NA27, save the layout. When I open the layout the next time, both copies opened up with NA27.

Is there some workaround, now I have to select the text again each time I open the layout :-(

Thank you.

I'm not aware of a workaround.

Was the layout saving your choice prior to 4.5b?

Having just experimented with this it appears that the two tabs are linked in some way.

This assumes that the second tab was created by copying the first.

In this case it seems that the last change to the "used translation" in either tab determines which translation is used in both tabs when the layout is next opened. It may not be totally consistent but this seems to be the case in my tests.

I created this layout to test this out in 4.5b SR3

I can repeat this behavior on Mac and PC. I'll send a note over to dev about it. I'll update this thread with whatever response/action I get.

I do not know, I just did this layout yesterday to help someone who has been using the print version of the Synopsis of the 4 Gospels (with both English and Greek text) for around 30 years, to get him to feel comfortable about migrating to Logos 4.

Since Logos allows multiple copies of the same Bible Harmony to be opened at one time, it is reasonable to assume that each instant would be opened using a different bible.

Hoping that Logos would consider to provide a solution for such a reasonable use case.

Graham, Thanks for experimenting and confirming the case
