LSB Paragraph View is Missing
Maybe it's just me because I'm pretty new to Logos and still learning how to use it, but I can't seem to get the LSB (Legacy Standard Bible) out of verse by verse mode. It always displays a new line for each verse and not as a standard paragraph. I've checked the "Reformat Text" settings and it seems to change nothing when I toggle "One verse per line" on and off.
What am I doing wrong? Please help.

The LSB like the NASB95 is verse by verse and Logos is not able to make it into paragraph format. Logos can take a paragraph format Bible and have it display verse by verse.

ok. Thanks. I thought it was something I was doing wrong. I actually like verse by verse but I wanted to make it paragraph for my daughter when we read the bible together.
Thanks!

LSB/NASB95 signal the beginning of a new paragraph by making the verse number bold.

Yes, I remember reading that somewhere, but the boldness of the number is not very obvious, at least it isn't on my ipad. I wish it was underlined or a different color or anything a little more obvious. I think it works better in print than it does digitally, but even then I find it hard to distinguish the beginning of the paragraphs.

You could consider creating a visual filter to highlight or change the color of bolded verse numbers.
I personally love the LSB and the VBV but I get the appeal of wanting the option for sure.

@Keith Click That sounds like a GREAT idea! Would you be willing to give me the 2 minute version on how to do that? I’ve never made a visual filter but I’m using a few of the public ones.

Ok, I 'tried' to do this on my own but my visual filter doesn't show up in the list of available visual filters. Here is what I did:
What did I do wrong?

Unfortunately, it doesn’t appear Bold VerseNum is a valid field or syntax in Logos. Logos does not expose formatting styles (like bold or paragraph breaks) as searchable or taggable elements in the Visual Filter engine - from my understanding. So, I guess that idea won’t work.

ok. Thank you. I played with it a bunch last night and I couldn’t figure it out. I did learn a bunch about visual filters, so that was fun.

Does the LSB support pericopes? I own it but I mostly use the NET and a Greek/Hebrew Bible in parallel.

I'm sorry, I don't even know what that is. Hopefully someone else can answer that.

Yes, the LSB is printed with pericope titles. Pericopes are specific to a particular edition of a Bible as printed … they are not something generic added after the fact.
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."

The LSB app for iOS is in paragraph form. Is that format not available to Logos?
