Newbie - Show Study Bible every time

Pst Jon Featherstone

I am fairly new to Logos and I can't work out how to set a study bible to open by default.

Lets say I search Psalm 65 it will open up the passage guide on the left. NKJV on the right and then under the NKJV I want it to default to a study bible?? 

Any suggestions if you can manage to understand what I want??

Hi Jon - and welcome to the forums

Lets say I search Psalm 65 it will open up the passage guide on the left. NKJV on the right and then under the NKJV I want it to default to a study bible?? 

I assume that you are entering "Psalm 65" into the box at the top left of the home screen

This opens up a "default Passage Guide" which has commentaries underneath Bibles and you can't change this (you can change which commentary appears that through prioritisation but that doesn't give you what you want)

What you could do is set up the resources you want as you want them and save this as a layout - details at http://wiki.logos.com/Layouts__

This would give you something like the screenshot below:

I have linked (http://wiki.logos.com/Linking_Resources) the Bible and the Study Bible so that entering a passage into either of them will cause both of them to go to it.

Then you can save your layout and open it when you want it.

If you want to go one step further you can "drag" the layout to your shortcuts bar (http://wiki.logos.com/Shortcuts_bar) and you can then open it with a single click.

Hope this helps - please feel free to post back with questions about this or any use of Logos 5
