BUG??? Quirky Note Indicators

My current install is showing some note indicators where the note is turned off in the selection list. Here's a screenshot of one-

The highlight comes from the Doctrines of Grace notebook, but as you can see, it is unchecked. An uncheck followed by a restart doesn't help. There are several other notebooks doing the same thing.

My notes and highlights go way back, not only to before Notes/Highlights were tied together, but back to L4, when they were un un-understandable mess. Perhaps something from back then is interfering? Another possibility is, a note somehow got moved from the original notebook to another. (I highlighted a number with "Active notebook" selected as the target for the note...making their whereabouts very difficult to trace.

Is there a way to select a rogue note/highlight and trace it to its source notebook?

I don't know how to sort this out and find the cause. Any ideas?

If you right-click and select the text (or reference depending on the type of note it is) the Open Notes and Highlights option should open the Notes Tool to that note / notebook.

But is it possible that the indication in the text is coming from another resource - through the From other books with corresponding text list?

I'll see if I can make that work.

I don't think so...when I turn that off, the indications don't go away.

Yes, that got me where I could see the source. That's a good start. Thanks for the quick tip.

Now, if I can just figure out how some of these notes got moved to the wrong Notes file. I know I didn't move them there on purpose (it would make no sense); but parsimony suggests that I moved them there accidentally/inadvertently...I just don't know how that happened. I'd like to figure it out so I don't do it again.

After 20-ish years in Logos, you get some pretty extensive notes. Making a jumble of them is not a helpful plan. [:(]
