Change default bible per layout or workflow?
I use Logos for daily devotions and sermon prep. I use different translations for each. Is there a way to change the default bible per layout or workflow?

No.
You have to manually change via Prioritization in Library or using the command set preferred bible to ....
You might be able to avoid that if you go to the bible's panel menu and select Send hyperlinks here.

No. An idea is advanced prioritization so Bible references in a Bible show text from that Bible. For example, my demonstration account has advanced prioritization for the Complete Jewish Bible (CJB), which is higher than default Lexham English Bible (LEB):
In Matthew 5, clicking on a footnote indicator in CJB has verse reference(s). Hovering mouse over a reference shows CJB text:

One possible workaround.Any command you can type into the Go Bar (marked "Passage or topic") can be made into a shortcut.
So say you type in "set preferred bible to esv" into the Go Bar.
One of the responses under "Tools" will be: "Set preferred Bible to English Standard Version". You can actually drag and drop this phrase to the shortcut bar (immediately below Tools) .
It will create a shortcut with the cover image of the ESV, named "Set preferred Bible to English Standard Version". This lengthy name can then be edited and shortened to "Set preferred Bible to ESV".
You can proceed in like manner with as many translations as you like. You can then simply toggle between different preferred Bibles by a single click on one of these shortcuts.

That's an interesting way of doing it. This seems to, however, it seems that the default bible is now the prioritized bible, so is not quite what I was looking for.
Thanks!

default bible is now the prioritized bible
By definition in Logos, the default Bible is the highest prioritized Bible containing the reference.
