The step to next/previous feature is great. For Bibles, the Article selection should step by pericope instead of chapters. Chapters is already a selection possibility.
The article option steps by pericope in the Bibles that have them. It would be nice to have the submenu note this.
Thanks for the info. All of the following bibles have pericope titles. Only three jump by pericope. So it is more of a bible formatting issue than a software issue. Hopefully more bibles are formatted to take advantage of the feature! ESV & ESV-CE - jumps by chapter RSV2CE - jumps by chapter NLT - jumps by chapter NABRE - jumps by chapter NIV - jumps by chapter CSB - jumps by chapter NASB95 - jumps by chapter NET & NET2e - jumps by pericope NRSV-CE - jumps by pericope
This is a user set parameter
I checked a couple of the Bibles he indicated (which have pericopes); even when you set the parameter to Article, it steps to the next Chapter, unlike the NRSV-CE which correctly steps to the next pericope.
Can you give me your examples to test? Any that do not jump by pericope should be reported as a bug.
I tried the ESV, NIV, and CSB.
Mr. Smith. Just do exactly what I did. 1) Choose a bible 2) Make sure "Step to next/previous" is set to Article 3) Hit the up and down arrows and observe what happens
I gave you the results from 11 different bibles already. The data speaks for itself. 1) The feature does work as advertised (stepping to pericopes when available) 2) Only a few bibles are formatted properly to take advantage of this feature
(I just checked again as some bibles were recently update. Interestingly, NRSV doesn't jump to pericope, but NRSV-CE does!)
PS: Thanks for the interest!
MJ (she) has already written up a bug report for this. I’m using my phone right now and I won’t trouble myself to look for the link to post here.
ETA: I'm back on my laptop; here is her post:
@John Z.
The NRSV does jump by pericope for me which is why I thought you had the unit of step set incorrectly.
This is a big issue. Most of us study by pericope, not by chapter. Please fix this for all Bibles (especially the ESV please!)
Agreed. It is a bit disappointing that 8 months have passed since this has been reported and nothing has been done. Agreed that ESV and ESV-CE should be a priority.
I have probably missed some good deals because Logos/Verbum emails are so far off the mark as to what is of interest to me that I simply delete them based on the email address of the sender. I little incentive - a professional level infographic, a confession of faith, a church document (the Lutherans especially have some…
Add the ability for users to prioritize resources, present in the desktop app, to the web app.
At least as they have wound up being configured for me, popups in the web app are so much better than in the Windows app! In the web app, I'm looking at the popup that results from my hovering over a reference to Isaiah 53:4-12. First, even though the font size for the text of the book I'm reading is large, the font size…
PLEASE add the Tyndale One Year Bible Reading Plan to the reading plans in Logos. At the least add the different versions of the Bibles in the library so we can download them and follow them in Logos. Thanks!
Dear Staff, I often use the Clippings tool for extensive research on a topic. It would be very helpful if we could use the Highlight Tool on the Clippings documents. I use the bold, italics, etc. for some differentiation, but being able to use the highlight tool would be infinitely better. Thanks, Mike
