I appreciate this feature, but on coursebooks it ends up highjacking my learning (since I can tell what the answer is because people highlighted it already). How do I turn it off?
How do I turn it off?
It is a visual filter. See the choices under the "three circles" icon.
That works if it is a book. On a course, the highlight is there and the option to remove popular highlights is not even available.
I thought if I removed from the course's text it would work, but I have done so, and it is still showing.
I have not used a course before, so I am probably not much help.
How did you attach a screen shot? Did you take a screen shot and use the paperclip icon? It is really low res and I don't see any highlights.
Yes that is how I updated it. Can you see the little grey lines with a grey highlighter beside it? That's the popular highlight feature.

Not really. Your screen shot is very low res (at least on my computer). When a forum member attached a screen shot it is typically "clickable" (see below) which will provide a larger image. Your screen shot has not been attached properly. Use the paperclip icon (again, see screenshot).
This website may be a help if the method you use to create a screenshot is low res: https://www.take-a-screenshot.org
Yep, what you are describing is exactly what I did. But why not upload it again? Here it is (and I make sure to zoom in, just in case):
Now, any idea on how to remove popular highlights from a course?
Open HB101 Introduction to Biblical Hebrew (Activities) (the resource) from your Library. In the resource panel, use the Visual Filters toolbar icon to turn off Popular highlights.
Once you do this, they will disappear in the Courses Tool, too. (You may have to close and reopen the Courses Tool for it to take effect.)
I just got Logos 8, am beginning the BI101 course, and find the popular highlights distracting, and want to hide them. But the "Visual Filters" button you show above is not there! Either in the Courses Tool, or just opening the course itself directly, there is NO "Visual Filters" button in this course. Is there another way to hide these distracting underlines, or a way to make that button appear?
Thanks!
Yes - go to Program Settings under Tools
Thanks for the reply!
I just went there, and I see nothing about highlights at all. I see "Show Community Ratings," and "Show Community Tags," but both of them seem exclusively to apply to books in the library. Is there something in the Program Settings that I am misunderstanding?
My apologies. It is on the resource visual filters menu see New Feature in Logos 5: Popular Highlights
