Single word frequency distribution by biblical book

I forgot how to generate a word frequency distribution list by biblical book. Say I want to see how often in each book the Hebrew verb for "dream" occurs. I can search for that word just fine and get a list of 29 results in 25 verses for BHW 4.18. What I would like to see is a bar graph that shows count per book, with just this data: Gen 14x / Deut 3x / Judg 1x / etc. Should be simple, I just forgot. Would appreciate help or a link to a previous post with answer. Thanks! I am using Logos 8.12.

    Perform your lemma search.

    Then click on the graph/chart icon, which is to the right of Syntax in the search type options.

    This should give you what you are looking for.

    That icon does not appear on my Logos 8 screen anywhere. I just checked videos and webpages on the Logos site, and they all mention the same graph/chart icon, show what it looks like, and where it is located. It's just not to be found. I cannot figure out a way to send you a screen shot via this forum input page.

    ִI just found the icon. It is in one search entry, but not the one I normally use. Don't know why that is the case. Thanks!

    Okay I just found the answer to my whole problem. At one point in my search layout I must have selected the 3 vertical dots on the right of the panel that has: Bible Basic Media Morph and the graph icon on the right of that panel. I then must have opened the panel settings, and hit "Close", and then of course it was gone with the graph icon. I probably never saved the layout before I closed that panel, so every time I restarted Logos 8 it defaulted to the previous setting. I now have a saved layout with that panel visible. I actually do not know why I would have closed the panel at all, except perhaps at one time to generate more vertical space on my screen. Now I am wondering if I should close that panel, how I can get it back.

    You can also accomplish this in a Bible Word Study.
