Modify layout of Treasury of Scriptural Knowledge
Hello,
I was looking at the Treasury of Scriptural Knowledge, both within Logos as well as via an external source, and realized that the external source has much more preferable formatting.
See here for the formatting from the external source: https://www.studylight.org/commentaries/eng/tsk/ruth-1.html
And see the following for how this looks when displayed in Logos:
Chap. 1
Elimelech, driven by famine into Moab, dies there, 1–3. Mahlon and Chilion, having married wives of Moab, die also, 4, 5. Naomi, returning homeward, 6, 7, dissuades her two daughters-in-law from going with her, 8–13. Orpah leaves her, but Ruth with great constancy accompanies her, 14–18. They two come to Beth-lehem, where they are gladly received, 19–22.
1 the judges. Ju. 2:16; 12:8. ruled. Heb. judged. a famine. Ge. 12:10; 26:1; 43:1. Le. 26:19. De. 28:23, 24, 38. 2 Sa. 21:1. 1 Ki. 17:1–12; 18:2. 2 Ki. 8:1, 2. Ps. 105:16; 107:34. Je. 14:1. Eze. 14:13, 21. Joel 1:10, 11, 16–20. Am. 4:6. Beth-lehem-judah. Ju. 17:8; 19:1, 2.
2 Elimelech. The Rabbins say, that Elimelech was the son of Salmon, who married Rahab; and that Naomi was his niece. Naomi. ver. 20. Mahlon. It is imagined, and not without probability, that Mahlon and Chilion are the same with Joash and Saraph, mentioned in 1 Ch. 4:22. Ephrathites. Ge. 35:19. 1 Sa. 1:1; 17:12. Mi. 5:2. continued. Heb. were.

As you can see, the link doesn't line break on new verses, but rather for each individual component of the new verse. Logos, on the other hand, condenses all components of the same verse on the same line, which makes it difficult to parse.
Is there any way to introduce line breaks within this resource so that it is easier to read?
Thanks!

There is not a way currently, but Logos has introduced something similar in BDAG which might be a good template if Faithlife wants to tackle this. In BDAG, you can activate an "outline view" visual filter and get the results you want. It might be possible to parse TSK in the same way, although the formatting is not really consistent, so it might be tough. NTSK has many more references and uses bold instead of italics, which I find quite convenient.

Thank you for the very prompt response! I did find the setting that you referenced for BDAG, which definitely does wonders for readability. I am still working through which resources will be most useful for me as I learn to study (and BDAG was a suggested resource by my pastor), so BDAG has gone up in priority now.
Many thanks!
