Copy and paste Scripture

I used to.be able to copy and paste Scripture where it gave the chapter, verse, and translation at the beginning now it gives those at the end. I would like it back how it was so when glancing at my notes I can just look down and give reference to the church rather than having to look at the end of the text to find it.

    Didn't I just answer this directing you to settings via the change notes?

    Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

    No it changed the hyperlink but it still puts the Scripture references at the end not before the Scripture

    What is your citation style for the Bibles?

    It let's say I want to paste John 11:35. I copy from Logos and paste to my word dock and it would look like this.

    Jesus wept - John 11:35 (NIV)

    I personally would rather have it John 11:35(NIV) - Jesus wept.

    That's how it shows up when I paste from my desktop into PowerPoint but on the mobile app from my Ipad (which is where I prepare my message) it does everything opposite.

    Citation style is APA Style (7th ed.)

    (Reposting from a similar thread) I think the issue specifically occurs while the"Use short format for Bibles" setting is turned. Previously, the copied text would be pasted in the order of [reference-scripture]. Now, the pasted citation occurs [scripture-reference].

    This formatting order is unrelated to citation style selection when "Use short format for Bibles" is turned on. Maybe if we could have the option to have a setting which allows us to choose to copy the reference before or after scripture? Thanks
