Problem - Labels attached to Bible verse references don't show up in Bibles. (6.0a Beta 1 6.0.1.

I attached a note to Dt 1:22 and via Attachment Points to Nu 13:2, and then added comments to the note.

I added a label "Reconcile" to that note.

I don't see the label at either verse (via hover or Show Information).

When I search (Basic) Everything with {Label Reconcile}, it finds the note I made under Your Documents but nowhere else.

When I do the same search in All Resources or NASB (the Bible I was using) it does not find the Label anywhere.

I was expecting it to be found at both references in NASB (and/or all locations where those Bible references are found).

How are Labels to behave when attached to a Bible references?

How can they be found in Bibles, commentaries and other resources with Bible References?

Labels currently only return search results in resources when attached to selection-based note/highlight.

So Bradley, by "currently", do you mean that this will change in the near future? This seems to be an oversight.

No.

This seems to be an oversight.

We'll review this suggestion.

Thank you, Bradley. It would be nice for these markers to be active across multiple Bibles, not just the one marked with the Label (and also other resources with Bible references, like commentaries). My current workaround is a bit kludgy:

Highlight Bible text
Using a keyboard shortcut, mark the text with a highlight that has a Label (but no text effect/border/line or image so it doesn't mark the text)
Open the annotation created by the highlight shortcut
Edit the attachment points by adding the current Bible reference (so the annotation is available in other Bibles and commentaries with the annotation)
Change the note indicator so the annotation is marked at the verse level and can be seen in other Bibles at that reference
Explain in the annotation about the Label and why it was marked so it can be understood in the other resources.

Even then, the Label is only active on the original highlighted text - you have to follow the annotation from other Bibles/commentaries to find the Label. Not very efficient if you are trying to label a paragraph, pericope or other key characteristic of the passage so it shows up wherever that Bible passage is found.
