How to find Unprioritized Resources

I am sure I have important un-prioritized resources.  How do I find them? Is there a sort method in the Library?

Quick answer is that you can't.

Long answer is that there is a work around (sort of):

1. Choose which data type you're going to be checking (bible reference?, Greek lemma?, English headword?, Date?).
2. Find a resource with that datatype.
3. Find a reference in that resource that you think will be in all (or at least nearly all) resources that support that type.
4. Do a Power Lookup on that reference.
5. The Power Lookup will list resources in prioritisation order. Everything below your least prioritised resource is not prioritised.

(For Commentaries, you could run a custom PG with a commentaries section from Gen-Rev, and then follow (5)).

An alternative to Power Lookup is the + tab. That will have the same effect. The advantage is that you'll be able to see the resource titles more easily. The disadvantage is that you'll lose the list if you click on one of them.

I find the best way to see a list of what is prioritized iis to click on the "Prioritize" button in the upper right corner of the library. Then your entire list of prioritized items shows up. Then you can see what is missing.

Thanks, Mark and Bruce.  I think the long-answer work around will help. Creative thinking!

Someday it might be helpful to have some kind of indicator on all-ready prioritized resources and a way to sort by that indicator.  What we have works.
