Typing in Greek and Hebrew
What's the best way to type in Greek and Hebrew in 4.0? I have the logos keyboards installed on my computer, but in some instances (for example the syntax searches), the logos keyboards don't work well. The syntax search input requires accents and breathing marks in order to accurately input a lemma (or even find the right selection from the drop down box), and they don't seem to be working for me (unless what I think are smooth breathing and accent marks aren't).
The logos keyboards work fine for entering greek text in a Bible Word Study. I haven't tried Hebrew yet.

You can either install Logos' Biblical Language keyboards (search Greek keyboard on logos.com) or use the pre-installed polytonic keyboard provided by Windows. I think both require you to go into control panel & language/region settings.

David,
this brings up a question: is there going to be an option on the syntax searches to "ignore accents and breathing marks"?

The issue right now, at least for morphological searches, is that the lemma suggestions are wrong. I have gotten the searches to work manually putting in breathing marks and accents. As it happened, what I thought was a smooth breathing mark wasn't. That was part of my problem [:)]. The fix for the problem shouldn't necessarily be ignoring the marks, but having the lemma selector give us the correct suggestions. This isn't something I'm worries about though since it is listed as a known problem.
