In Logos4, would like to send a selected scripture verse range to the Text Comparison tool

In Logos4, I would like to be able to send a selected scripture verse range to the Text Comparison tool. More specifically, I would like to highlight (some of) the text of a verse or verses in a Bible, right click the highlighted text, and then click an option in the resulting popup menu to have those verses appear in the Text Comparison tool. This is faster/easier than typing the verses in the Text Comparison tool's text box and less system-resource-intensive than linking the Text Comparison tool to my Bibles.

Are you aware can highlight text, then hit the F7 key and your text will come up in a horizontal window comparing the text in your top five Bibles? For quick text comparison this is a fine option.

Has this functionality been added yet to Logos 4?

In what ways does the F7 function described earlier fall short of your needs? The way I would prefer for it to work is to highlight, F7, and then have a hyperlink in the F7 window that says "View in Text Compare Tool" so that the "difference" settings could be set.

Ok. I would prefer that the verses automatically go to the Text Comparison tool, where I can look at more translations beyond 5, but it does appear to me that when I click on the popup after hitting F7, the verses do actually go to the Text Comparison tool. Not too bad .. just a few extra steps.
