tagging verses

is it possible to tag verses similar to the way one can tag the Library resources or clippings (possibly as a visual filter, which can be turned on and off)? I want to tag proverbs with the subjects verses deal with. I know I can create a Passage List for each individual subject, but this would not allow me to see if verse deals with multiple subjects.

I also know that I can simply highlight the verse, with highlight color representing a certain subject, but how do you deal with verses that can be tagged with multiple subjects?

ideally, when you tag a verse, Logos would automatically create a Passage list with that tag name

Create a note file for each subject and create a note by "selection" for each verse in the relevant note file. This achieves a few things:-

the resource Visual filters (tri-colour) icon will tell you what notes (subjects) are in the resource.
you can select which Notes (subjects) may be viewed & searched.
you can search for notes as Annotations via the Locator Bar and see what subjects are "tagged" at each location.

To easily recognise each subject you can:-

have a unique Note Indicator for each subject
select the same word in the verse but choose the "no highlight" option in the note file.

The "by selection" Note Indicators denote different subjects. I selected "When" to create the notes but chose the "no highlight" option later.

The "by reference" Note Indicator is easier to create but you can't search for them from the Locator bar.

I thought about using notefiles (actually highlighting) too (it is even possible to create custom highlighting styles with the subject word)

but these are the issues I have using notefiles as tags

it is a clumsy solution. It requires user to create a highlighting style, assign a notefile and setup a keyboard shortcut for best workflow
since I am highlighting a selection, my list only shows up in 1 bible

Alternatively, can LOGOS create a visual filter (indicator) that a verse is in a specific passage list?

You need a search criteria - word or phrase - for a VF, which would be difficult and imprecise e.g. does "rich" always imply Finances? You would have to apply the highlight manually using the style for Finances.

no, I meant "it would be nice if, when you add a verse to the Passage List, Logos5 would add an icon (similar to when you add a note) indicating that this verse is in a Passage List"
