Going directly to Factbook hits

Why can't  we click and go to the hits that Factbook finds for us? For example I'm searching all the words, "teaching" in Farrar’s Lives of the Fathers and come up with 105 results.

Although it gives me the exact places where each can be found, it would certainly be nice for these results to be tagged within its own resource. Just click the hit and go to the place in the book.

Or can I do this somewhere else?

    Okay, you have me thoroughly confused. You talk aout Factbook and give a picture of an inline search. For the inline search the normal navigation is by the up/down arrows but that doesn't appear to be the answer to your question.

    Edit; OTOH Factbook seems to navigate normally. So are you mistaking the chapter headings for separate resources?

    Fair enough, my mistake.

    For an Inline search result why can't we simply click on the result and go to that place where it's located in the resource.

    It's called Inline Search because you are in the resource: you never leave it, you simply narrow the display to only show the segments of matching content. All the normal text functions are available (notes, right-click menu, etc.).

    Note the articles are fairly long in some resources, which may make it harder to see what's going on if that's your unit. Try it in a dictionary like NBD with the displayed unit set to Sentence, and the navigation to Search Result so you can move from one result to the next.

    The other way to do this is to run a regular search (just like Logos 5) using the Basic Search tool. When you click each result in the search panel, you'll be taken to that location in the resource.
