Is the Reformat>Propositional outlines supposed to reformat every Bible tab open?

I keep 3 or more ESV Bible tabs open (one for hyperlinks, one for an interlinear, and others for comparing different passages, etc.) When I use the Reformat tab menu in a particular ESV tab, I expect my reformatting to affect only that particular ESV tab; but instead, it affects every ESV tab I have opened—even a new ESV tab I open. Is the reformatting in one tab supposed to affect all ESV tabs? If I turn the reformatting off in the ESV Interlinear tab, it turns it off in every ESV tab. If I change to a different Bible version, it doesn't reformat that version which is sort of a work-around, but I'd rather not have to change versions. Thanks for your input.

    Yep, as you describe. And it's quite good at consistency in erroneously applying visual filters too .. each same-Bible gets the bad treatment.

    Sometimes the idea is great … the markup automatically gets applied. And sometimes, it's crazy.

    My multiviews all have to use different versions.

    Yes, there are several features that are by book rather than by panel instance. This is a legacy "feature" that needs to be changed but its priority (user and Logos) is unknown to me.

    Yeah, that quirk is super frustrating. I get around it with my copy of the ESV-CE.

    Thank you all for your replies. Maybe Logos will at some point make this feature work only in the panel where it is set.
