Bug or Normal Behavior in the Parallel Resources Tool?
I just noticed that when I click on parallel resources, those that are in the cloud do not appear for me. I tested this with Bibles.
I use the stable version of Logos with the entire library saved on my computer, but I use the beta version of Verbum to test new features. When trying to access parallel Bibles and find the NIV, I noticed it didn't appear either in all parallel resources (on the right) or in my favorite Bible collection (which is set to show in parallel resources). Only after searching for the Bible in the library and downloading it to my computer did it start appearing in parallel resources. This happens with any other resource as well.
Is this normal behavior or a software bug? I would expect to see the parallel books just like I can see them in the library, even while they are still online.

I'm not surprised by it
It seems similar to cloud books not appearing in Collections even when they satisfy the rules defining the collection.

I agree I would too. I hope this is a bug.

This is the expected behavior for the Parallel Resources tool. There are still many places in the application that are unable to make use of cloud books.

Are there any plans to try to make it work?Andrew Batishko said:There are still many places in the application that are unable to make use of cloud books.

The plan is to support cloud resources throughout the application. That's obviously not a short term plan. Generally speaking, we don't tend to share plans, because plans tend to change, resulting in disappointment. It's not something that is currently in active development.
I recommend creating a new feature request on our feedback site: https://feedback.logos.com/boards/logos-desktop-app/
