MISSING FEATURE: Actually trying to use Faithlife

Using Faithlife seriously, it becomes obvious that a few integration features are missing:

1. I can't share a highlighting palette or provide an image of it

2. I can't share a layout or provide an image of it

3. There is no indication in the Community Notes section of the desktop app what resource the notes showing are attached to ... and what other resources have relevant Community Notes ... or an easy way to find the Community Notes in a resource if you didn't happen to run into the pretty green flag.

    Hi--

    It seems you have made a comprehensive "attempt" to use the Integration of Logos and Faithlife; Something I would love to do!  My problem apparently is blindness[H]. I have searched high and low, and can not seem to find any instructions or forum postings about how to actually post/send/export my awesome Logos 5 analysis to Faithlife!!!  Can you clue me in on what I have to do, or the location of the elusive Eldorado--of instuctions, that is.  Any insight would be a great blessing.  Thanks.  Karen[:)]

    Look for the next to last entry on the left-hand side of the Documents menu

    Number 3 is a very good point. I have wondered about the ability to search notes on the desktop software. With regard to sharing a layout, are you talking about a person being able to load a layout or just see a layout? If the latter, you can do a print screen copy to Word (convert to pdf, if preferred), and upload it to the documents.

    MJ did not mean that to be the word find puzzle of course! There are a couple of links at the bottom of the left pane of the documents menu: The first link properly named "Share documents" takes you to a webpage that allows you to make any of your notes public for collaborating/sharing with a faithlife group.
