Offline Cross-references

I have assigned my ESV for offline reading (as well as the books I am currently reading). However, when I click on the cross-reference link on these books, the popup tells me the resource is unavailable. Is there a way to make this work offline??

    When I click on a cross-reference it always displays what I think is the KJV. I have not found a way to change this. Perhaps you need to have the KJV installed.

    I would like to change my default to ESV if possible.

    The app does support Bible references offline but not footnotes.

    Ok. I think I get it. It would be classified a "footnote" if it were in a resource other than a Bible (though it is a biblical reference). Is it too difficult to support this function??

    It really depends on how the book was built. Can you give me a specific example of where this is happening?

    What Dave is saying is that the little superscript letters/numbers in your Bible that contain the cross-references are treated like Logos as footnotes, and footnotes are not available offline. So the problem is not cross-references per se, the problem is that the cross-reference is contained in a footnote.

    But the bottom line is that you still can't do what you want, sorry.

    This is getting interesting. I just played around a bit more offline. I am reading "Grace Abounding.." by John Bunyan. As I read, I see a blue hyperlink with Bible reference. I noticed that if it was a NT reference, it tells me it's not available. If it's OT it opens up my BHS. If it is one of the superscript number/footnotes, sometimes I am provided with information and other times "unavailable." Perhaps the latter are contingent on availability of resources in my library.

    Jonathan-

    I am always interested in where people live.  With a name like Squamish, I only had to think a little.  It had to be Northwest, but I thought perhaps Washington.  British Columbia is close enough.  Glad to hear, you use Logos up there, EH.
