Workspace
There is one area of my workspace that seems to not work correctly. No matter how many times I collapse all my drop down menus in my passage guide and then save that workspace in that way, when I open that workspace the next time, the commentaries section of the PG is always going to expand. Why is that? When you save the updated workspace, it should save the workspace with the collapsed PG and not open some of the sections of the passage guide....what am I doing wrong?

The expand/collapse state of Guide sections is not saved as part of the layout. Instead, it is a system-wide preference that is updated when a panel is closed. The expand/collapse state should initialize to the last state the Commentaries section had when any Guide containing that section was closed.

Andrew, this used to be true for the search panel as well, but not with Logos 10. Can you please restore this functionality to the search panel? See this bug report I made for more details: https://community.logos.com/forums/t/211350.aspx

Upcoming changes to the Books search kind will result in there no longer being multiple result sections in that search kind.

If you mean we have to run separate searches for downloaded books, cloud books, print books and storefront books ... may I object in advance?

Bookstore search will be a separate search kind. Downloaded, Cloud, and Print books will all be searchable in a combined format.

In short, a continuing decrease in usability for my use while perhaps improving it for some. For me, this making everything a separate search/single search approach is misguided and will add confusion to the inexperienced user. Instead of puzzling over how to write the search argument they will be puzzling over the type of search needed and wondering why many searches are needed to create a simple result.

Even after Downloaded/Cloud/Print have been merged into a single set of results, we’ll retain the option to group them, for users who prefer that.

That is kind of what I thought. But Morris Proctor is saying the opposite in his training. He is saying in his training that the collapsed section are saved as part of the layout.
I assume you are talking about "Layouts"? If this is the case... then set your workspace and then click the "Layouts" icon... and type in a name for your "workspace ~ layout" and save it...

Barney Fife is my hero! He only uses an abacus with 14 rows!
I have done that, and the commentary section of the PG open in the Workspace expanded instead of collapsed as the workspace is saved.
