Function Issue that MUST Be Addressed

I like the new way of accessing the Parallel Resources panel. But there's a funtional problem that is critical and makes the tool very difficult to use at times.

Simple fix: Popups. Either enable a popup with the full title, or (maybe better) a popup with the book information page. That way, the available resources won't be a mystery click (see screenshot).

I was told in another thread that popups are there, but slow. I hovered for one hour to test this...never saw a popup. (In fact, I had to do it twice...the first time, after a few minutes, I got a popup that said "No parallel resources available." This did not occur the second time I hovered.)

(And yes, I know there is a workaround by changing the book titles in the Library. But that's an unworkable fix and should be completely unnecessary, IMO.)

    Once the books are chosen, I wish they would have a column header for the Parallel Resource Panel and show the book,  or abbreviation of the book, that's in the column. [8-|]

    xn = Christan  man=man -- Acts 11:26 "....and the disciples were first called Christians in Antioch".

    This has been fixed in the first beta for the new version 38 (to be released in about six weeks):

    I'm on the latest beta and not finding this to be true.

    What's doubly strange is that I did find it to be true not too long ago.

    Windows 11. Last I remember seeing it was actually before 38 I believe?
