BUG? Placement of Song label

I have a filter that places SG as a superscript before the Song label.  I would expect it to appear at the beginning of the song i.e. at 2 where the song begins. However, it appears prior to the pericope heading i.e. at 1. This makes the results of searches WITHIN or INTERSECTS unreliable, It also reinforces the impression that Logos encourages sloppiness ... not a desirable trait in the study of God's Word. If this is the best possible in the current coding structure rather than a sloppy error, Logos needs to prioritize a restructuring of the coding.  This kind of sloppiness was, perhaps, acceptable a decade or two ago, but natural language processing is far beyond this type of shortcut.

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."

    Hi MJ

    Did you deliberately put this in the Logos 8 Desktop subforum?

    The Song labels are tagged to verse ranges, not specific words. This combined with the fact that (as I'm sure you know) pericope titles come after the start of the milestone they are applied to explain the behavior you are seeing.

    Does that mean they are controlled by reference rather than the reverse interlinear?

    That's correct, which is why the Song label shows up in the context menu even in Bibles that do not have a reverse interlinear.
