Bible switching idea

When working with an English Bible translation in a particle window ...

 

What if we had a QUICK SWITCH option to either:

1] FLIP to a different language (Hebrew BHS, Greek LXX - standard or interlinear options could be set to a few default slots or a (User's) drop down that allows a quick set of choices)

2]  or SLIDE into a different translation - what we have is good, but could be faster, simpler

 

I really like 'hoover your mouse for drop down menus'

and then select (click on it) to choose. Quick and easy!

 

:)


I already sent it to suggestion HQ at Logos.com

    The easiest way is probably simply to use the library function to open the desired resource which will open to the location you already have open.

    The easiest way

    ... at present is just what you say.Click on Library / click on the command bar / think of the name of the resource you want / type it in / scroll down the list that shows up in the results part of the window / click (again) on the desired resource which opens to the place you need.

    This is great. A big improvement over many other ways of working. But I think Logos can improve it.  

    What I am proposing is much faster (and even easier) if it can be done.

    No need to involve the command bar—simply locate the resource in your library—(a Bible, I believe) which you shouldn't have much trouble locating—and click on it to open.
