Just wondering: How do you view 'Inline Strong's Numbers' in Logos 4?

In Logos 3 (Libronix 3) when using the KJV and NASB Bibles you can normally enable the 'Inline Strong's Numbers' from the View Menu (displayed below):

 

Some Bible Programs that use the 'Interlinear' option; and I could be mistaken, but usually when 'Interlinear' is an option, it is usually on a translation of the Bible that does not have the 'Inline Strong's Numbers' available as in the KJV and NASB, such as the NKJV, etc.

This leads me to believe that 'Inline Strong's Numbers' and 'Interlinear' are not the same thing; but as I mentioned before, I could be mistaken.

Just in case this is not clear, I came across a Lesson that I located through the Logos web site that gives instruction on turning on the 'Inline Strong's Numbers':

http://logoslessons.blogspot.com/2008/03/lesson-3-viewing-inline-strongs-numbers.html

I find that when communicating with people that do not study Hebrew, Chaldean (Aramaic/Syriack) or Greek, that I can simply refer to a Strong's number, and if they want to they can look it up themselves, because ultimately I would like to believe that we are all after the same thing;

What does the word mean

Pronunciation of the original language words are pale in comparison in my opinion to the definition of the words, but there is value in knowing them as you begin to see patterns in names, etc. and their definitions.

It would be nice for the users of this feature to get some assurance that this specific issue regarding the absence of the 'Inline Strong's Numbers' in Logos 4 (v4) will be resolved soon as well as the 'Interlinear' issue spoken of in the following link:

http://www.logos.com/4/missingfeatures

Thank you all for your time and consideration, if this is a separate issue from the 'Interlinear' one mentioned in the link above, The users of this feature would prefer that it be not overlooked; and if it is the same option, then please forgive me for my ignorance.

    This feature was not incorporated into Logos 4.0. You do have access to Strong's numbers in the current interlinear resources: NASB and ESV. Activate the interlinear feature and Strong's numbers can be found as a line in the interlinear.

    Once the full pane version of the interlinear is produced you may be able to show just the English text and a single line of the interlinear (Strong's in your interest) and have something close to the old 3.0 function.

    You always have access to the Strong's number through the right click menu in 4.0, too.

    I think all the Reverse Interlinears include Strong's numbers, so the "Interlinear" option may well be commensurate with Strong's numbers (normal Interlinears have a "Display" option, and some Greek ones include Strong's). When the "Full View" reverse Interlinears become available then Strong's numbers will truly be inline for many bibles, not just the KJV and NASB95 of L3  eg. NKJV, NRSV, KJV Cambridge. L4 NASB95 has dropped the controversial NASB additions to the system (eg. G32a, G1752a) to better align with the original Strong's numbers. In particular it avoids clangers like H7463a "wickedness" and H7463b "friend" in the NASB95 because a keylink to Strong's Enhanced Lexicon displays "friend" whereas a keylink to the NAS Dictionary displays "wickedness"!! The L4 NASB95 now uses H7451 for wickedness, same as the KJV.
