Highlights transfer to all versions

Lee Ahlstrom

Good evening,

I was making some highlights in some passages in the ISV, then wanted to read those passages in the NKJV. Shouldn't the highlights and notes transfer between bible translations?  Or are highlights specific to the translation in which they were made? Or perhaps it just takes time to sync?

running on an iPad 4 with ios7 and latest version of Logos.

thank you for the help!

Notes can be one of two types. They can be attached to a "reference", or to a "selection." Notes tied to a "reference" will be visible in any and all versified resources, including bibles & commentaries. Notes tied to a "selection," by definition, are visible only in the resource they were created in. 

Highlighting notes are, by definition, attached to a "selection." The implication of this is that highlighting appears only in one bible translation. If you think about it, you'll figure out why. [;)]

If you want to create a note visible in all translations, make sure to select "reference" when creating the note.
