Parallel resources that follow the active reference
I have noticed that when opening a word in a lexicon, it might be the exact word, or a word similar, and when going through different parallel resources, the word in the active reference section changed and I'm on another track.
Is there a way to lock the active reference and be able to move between parallel resources without ending up on other words, or having to click on "back" to go back to the original word?
Thanks.

But in order not to open 15 resources at once, switching between them with the arrows is better, but doesn't always track.

No, it won't always track nor is there a way to force it to track. The master-slave relationship is implemented only as multi-resource, Shall I say its a "choose your poison" choice?

It would be good if it worked. Is there a way to throw in requests? I imagine if someone was using books to work along several resources, he would search for the same entry, so, this should be useful in Logos, IMHO.
Thanks!

Yes, there is a suggestion forum. But the problem is that the lexicon resources don't all have the same lemmas . . . making the differences in lemmas easily visible while recognizing that the lemma by simply be missing is a more complex logic problem for the programmer than it looks like at first glance.

There would be 2 solutions for the programmer, either simply locating the lexicons that have that lemma and including them in the parallel OR simply having a lock option next to the active reference that would make it possible to lock the reference so that in the event of switching to the parallel, it would maintain the "master" or initial lemma.

Having spent a lifetime in the industry, I can list a number of solutions, the advantages and disadvantages of each along with the data required to keep the performance satisfactory. As I said, the problem is surprisingly thorny ... if it were simple it would have been implemented no later than L4.

The lock one would not use up anything extra, but I'll suggest it there, thanks!
Does Logos already sort through lexicons to see which are valid for that word, or is it only by language?
