When ordering by reference, notes places the order like this

  • Acts 1-2
  • Acts 1:1-5
  • Acts 1:1-6:7

Whereas the logical order ought to be as below, so that it follows the arrangement of the text.

  • Acts 1:1-6:7
  • Acts 1-2
  • Acts 1:1-5

    Hi, Sean:

    The actual ordering appears to be by Book-Chapter-Verse.

    The top item has the Book of Acts, Chapters 1-2, with no verses.

    The other two have book, chapter, and verses.

    Am I reading your post wrong?

    Hi thanks,

    If I anchor them by chapter and verse then it goes like this

    1. Acts 1:1-5
    2. Acts 1:1-2:47
    3. Acts 1:1-6:7

    This reverse order is really unhelpful to my workflow as I would like to have the sections going from the larger to the smaller

    1. Acts 1:1-6:7
    2. Acts 1:1-2:47
    3. Acts 1:1-5

    It seems to me that this is the logical order
