Sermon Editor Removes Formatting on Font Color Change
In the Sermon Editor, if I have already made some text bold, italic, or underlined, then I change the color of the text or paragraph, the Sermon Editor removes all previous character formatting except for the selected color. In fact, I believe that changing anything in the font "style" dropdown removes all other character formatting on the text.
This might be intended in the Sermon Editor. Not sure. But it isn't helpful for me since I typically change font colors as a final step before preaching.

Hi Edward,
Can you tell me what operating system and version of the app you are seeing this? I'm trying to reproduce this, but having trouble doing it. I'm wondering if you are applying this in a particular order and if that might be part of the reproduction steps. Can you let me know?

Edward,
Are you using a saved style? This will overwrite any other formatting that has been applied.

Thanks for getting back with me!Windows 10 Pro | Version 1909Logos 9.1.0.0018Not using a saved style.Here is a sample sentence before changing the style. All I have done is made one word bold, one italic, and one underlined.Here is the same sentence again. All I did was select Style and changed the color of the text to any other color:0

Step one. Open a Sermon document and type a sentence that includes bold, italic, or underline character formatting.
Step two. Select my sentence. Click "Styles." And click any color (or for that matter, any selection below the word "Style" on that drop down menu).
The result. Logos removes the bold, italic, or underline formatting.

Any thoughts?

Do you have any thoughts about this?
I'm not aware of any WYSIWYG editor operating this way, but perhaps this is the intended functionality.

Seems to still be a thing: https://community.logos.com/forums/t/201591.aspx

Yes. It is still a thing and has never been addressed yet. I'm glad knowing I'm not the only person frustrated by this.
My Logos version is 9.5.0.0019.
My current Windows version is Windows 10 Pro 21H1

Just to quickly update everyone on this...
We have prioritized this work to be done here shortly. Our development team just wrapped up a couple of projects that were time consuming but as we look at what's next on our priority list, this situation is right near the top. We look forward to getting a fix out for this in the near future.

I'm pleased Faithlife has this toward the top of the list in things to work on.
In the meantime, I've found that if I assign the color FIRST, then assign formatting (bold, Ital, underline), I can get the desired result.

I am still having problems with this. Won't allow me to change font colors, so every scripture comes out as white font on black background.

Caleb,
Can you please provide me a screenshot that shows the state you're in when trying to change it? Is this also happening for you after clicking the edit button on a scripture block?
I did a quick test on this and was able to maintain formatting on scriptures after clicking the "edit text" button on the scripture block.
Thanks.
