Remove highlighting style from anchor points

When I highlight a section in a non-Bible resource and then add a Bible reference anchor point to the note, the original highlighting style also displays in all my Bibles.  This annoys me greatly and I would like to know how to tell Logos not to do this.

    Hi Matt

    I understand the frustration but if there is a highlight associated with a note, then the highlight is applied in all resources that are anchored to it.

    So I can't think of any way of stopping this happening.

    If so, that is a ridiculous limitation.  Given time, this could result in one‘s entire Bible being highlighted.  The value of anchor points is the internal linking functionality between Bible  references and library resources, not the duplication of the highlight style.

    I tend to use anchors more to link notes / highlights to different places within Bibles - so usage does vary

    What you are requesting has been raised before but I haven't seen any indication that the behaviour is going to change.

    I recommend adding a feature request at https://feedback.faithlife.com/boards/logos-desktop-app and see if others support it. This is one of the ways Faithlife is determinig which areas of the app to focus on and to change.
