why do the anchors have inconsistent spacing?

Question

I admit this probably isn't important, but it is just bothering me for esthetic reasons. That said, why are the anchors of v.9 separated totally differently from the other verses?

Those little lines are called wear-marks

Show Auto and Favorite Bookmarks

Verbum shows “wear marks” in the scrollbar of resources to indicate the user’s most visited locations in a resource. These appear as short horizontal gray lines on the right edge of the resource. Additionally, if users add a location to their Favorites, a line will appear also in the resource scroll bar.

Setting this to Yes turn these lines on; setting it to No turns them off.

Show Search Bookmarks

Like auto and favorite bookmarks (above) these bookmarks appear in the scroll bar as short horizontal orange lines. When searching, these lines indicate where the search hits appear in the resource. Yes shows these lines, and No hides them.

Hi @Justin Gatlin, thanks for checking. Regarding v.8, no, I anchored v.8 the same way (just a verse anchor with no additional anchors).

Regarding v.9, I think that is indented oddly because of the strange space between the two anchors, so it is basically acting as if there are three anchors which is causing the indentation. I have a lot of notes on v.15 as well, so that specific verse also gets drastically indented. (I think that is normal, since on v.15 the notes are on the outside of the verse, just like v.7).

While I assume that is normal, I will still show a screenshot of v.15 just in case it is different on your end how notes indent verses. Also, in the Bible, and other books, there are these little lines and I am not sure what they are. I will mark that on the screenshot also. I had previously thought they meant I had read that part of the book or something, but there are not lines where I know I have read, so now I am not sure what they mean.

Btw, since we are talking about notes, I truly love the Logos notes!! It was a pain getting used to (and I do still wish the notes were easily sorted by biblical reference without filters), but the anchor system has been truly a huge improvement for my classes! Different topics are different icon shapes, so regardless of how many notes I have, I can find them super easily in class, which has been a huge improvement compared to all of the verses in a parallel format with no indication of what they are. :)

I'm trying to duplicate this, but I can't figute out why the word "according" in your verse 9 is weirdly indented. I tried to duplicate your setup by doing one verse per line and turning on Factbook Tags, but my text still looks normal. I also notice that for verse 8, your marker is to the right of the verse number, and for the others it is to the left. Did you anchor verse 8 differently?
