Help with "send hyperlinks here"

I cannot for the life of me find any help with regard how to use this feature.

Here is my scenario:  I open a maps resource, say Nelson's Complete Maps, et al., and then in the drop down, I click, send hyperlinks here.  I open a note related to a map I want to hyperlink to, and that is where I am stuck.

I am sure others out there use maps and were hyperlinking in L3, which worked great.  Any ideas?  This is a function I would have expected to work out of the box with L4.

Thank you for any help.

    Good morning Pat and Merry Christmas...

    The "Send hyperlinks here" is otherwise known as "when i click on a clickable link, then open it in this window" function.

    If you set that feature on a map window, then if you open a link that opens a map...it will open in that particular window.

    Same goes for bibles, commentaries, etc....

    Merry Christmas as well.

    Thanks Robert.  I believe that I would need to see a video on this feature.  I still do not understand how to get a "clickable" link to map to a map, or Biblical places location.  I am not sure if I would have to leave the Biblical places location open or what.

    Also, since I have a Logos package that has other maps and information with other information, I would rather link to anything in my resources as I did in Logos 3.

    In looking at the "missing items in Logos 4" link, I do not see this as something they are working on.  I have posted this as a suggestion in that area of the forum.

    Pat, I don't think the "send hyperlinks here" works the way you are thinking it does, which is why you are frustrated.  Below find a link to the thread where I asked about this tool, and got some very good explanations of how it works.

    So, from what I'm reading you want a link in notes that takes you directly to the chosen map?  There IS a way to do that...there was a thread around here on links in notes, and a work around for that.  I can't remember the title of the thread.  But knowing what you want (if my theory on that is correct) will help people who know more than I to help you.
