ASV - No verse numbers?

So for whatever reason... I got around to trying to view the ASV 1901 (I know I've viewed it before as I have 2 layouts with ASV 1901 in them). But now, I noticed it was in paragraph mode... So's I think...  no problem... click "visual filters" and set properties to "Bible Text Only", expecting to get "verse by line" but instead my paragraph mode verse numbers disappear.

So... I think and thunk... and try my trusty ole NKJV and sure enough (probably like the apostles would do Geeked) I can change it from paragraph mode to verse by line mode just by selecting  or de-selecting "Bible Text Only" in the "Visual Filter" selection.

So then I fire up WordSearch 12... and load up the ASV 1901 and sure enough my memory is correct that I can set it to "paragraph mode" or "verse by line mode".

So's I says, "self, you bonehead... you forgetted again!"

Now I'm asking.... can someone tell me how to view the ASV 1901 in verse by line mode?

And - I have not tried them all but should all Bibles that I have in my repretoire be able to switch back and forth from "Paragraph mode with verse numbers embedded in the paragraph" to "Verse by line with verse numbers"?

P.S. I know the apostles were better at reading in paragraph mode than I am... but remember... they most likely didn't speak English either!  Wink

Thanks

    to throw this out there "just in case"...

    You need to select not just "Bible Text Only" but also the sub-filter "Chapter/Verse Numbers" and/or "One Verse per Line".

    If you knew this already I apologize, just ignore me...

    Roy - You are correct ...  and my wife is correct....  I'm a forgetful person.

    Thanks for helping me re-learn again!
