When I try to open up Bible Sense Lexicon all I get is a blank window.  Same when I try to open it with the right click menu.

    Has it worked previously? Some logs may help us diagnose this.

    EDIT: You originally reported this in the Beta forum. Are you also saying that this problem exists in Logos 9.6?

    Hi William - sorry to hear you are having problems.

    Please provide some more details:

    • which platform are you running Logos on?
    • How are you trying to open the Lexicon - Tools menu or right-click context menu?
    • Does it start working properly if you restart Logos / your computer?

    Hi Graham,

    My name is Paul. I am running 9.15.0.0005. Basic Logos 9 features. Pre-Logos7 Library.

    I am having the same problem as William. While I'm in a BWS, the "SENSES" section just shows the following message:

    "This section shows where the word occurs in the Bible Sense Lexicon. It appears in the Bible Word Study guide. Learn more (hyperlinked)"

    If I go to Tools menu, Reference, and select Bible Sense Lexicon, a window is displayed that has a tab labeled Bible Sens Lexicon, but in the window it only displays:

    "Bible Sense Lexicon

    Enter a word in the search box to explore related meanings, as well as biblical words that can bne used in that sense. Learn more (hyperlinked)"

    Am I missing a necessary resource for this to function properly?

    Thank you in advance for your assistance. 

    For His Glory,

    paul

    Welcome to the Faithlife forums.

    See Bible Sense Lexicon | Logos Bible Software which will tell you that this feature requires the Bronze of higher feature set. It does come with a dataset WordSenses.lbswsd. With Basic, I think you lack the feature.

    What happens when you follow these instructions?

    Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

    The window closes, immediately replaced with a "Logos Help" window describing everything about Bible Sense Lexicon.

    Paul, the Bronze feature set has more features than Basic - you simple don't own the feature.

    Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."
