This capability has been restored in 8.4 - but in a slightly different way.
From the release notes:
Added a new Set preferred Bible to [resource title or abbreviation] command to the Go Box. Users can add shortcuts for specific Bible translations can to the shortcuts menu for quick access.
This seems like an unfortunate loss/complexifying of functionality. I'd already set up my preferred Bible long ago and never changed it, so I don't personally need that functionality. But imagine a newbie just starting up with Logos and having to be expected to figure out that they have to type a 19 character command + the length of the shortcut for their preferred Bible, or having to learn about prioritizing resources (which is usually a more advanced thing to learn about). A brand-new Day 1 Logos user used to be able to figure out how to set their preferred Bible by exploring the UI. No more. Tsk, tsk, Faithlife. Wrong direction.
I have been using Logos for quite a few years, but now that I have initiated a basic Bible study with "workflow" using Mark 14:1-11. Each of my notes appears all over the top of my chapter which is a nuisance because I'm trying to keep them within the workflow bible study space only.
When f I deleted the notes from my bible, the notes I made in my workflow disappeared also. So I did it all over again and went around trying to change my preferred bible from NASB to NKJV to see if the notes would appear on the NKJV instead of appearing on my NASB, but it didn't work either.
All notes created in a workflow when studying a passage are linked to both the workflow and to your Bibles. They are associated with a Notebook with a name relating to the workflow itself of the form “Workflow name | Passage”
If you disable this from showing in your Bibles - you can do this from the Notes and Highlight section of the resource Visual Filter menu - then you won’t see the notes in your Bibles
I can’t post screenshots at the moment but if this doesn’t make sense please let us know.
I tried to disable the notes from the notes' panel, but when I added an additional entry inside the workflow, the yellow note immediately appeared on the right hand size of my workflow section again. Of course, this means that what I wrote was copied to my bible.
So, when I make a new entry in my workflow, do I have to repeat the same process once again by disabling my note panel?

Does this give you what you want?
Alternatively, find the desired Bible in your library. Right click on it and select the "Prioritize this resource" option.

Now with 8.4, first time users are prompted to select a preferred Bible the first time the application is run after installation.

Ah, OK. All is well with the world, then. [:)]

As of now don't know what to do.
