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 suggest the answer column be removed from beside the prayer, and moved to the bottom. It takes up a lot of unnecessary space which makes long p;rayers a lot of unnessary scolling.
Integrate Logos with ReadWise (www.ReadWise.io), a service to help readers curate and review their digital highlights. ReadWise was recently endorsed by Tim Challies, and their website says they have thousands of users. I've just begun using the service, but to collect my highlights from Logos alongside my other electronic…
Considering a move to a different church that doesn't use Proclaim [This isn't the first "battle" I wish to have with Worship staff]. However, I DO LOVE the flow from Logos into Proclaim (Wish there was better 2-way communication), then using the Remote to control. As I look at Preach Mode there are 4 significant…
I have been making good use of the Sermon Manager function in Logos, as well as the Preach from Tablet feature. Thank you for providing such useful tools. I would like to make one suggestion related to this. I would be grateful if you could review the possibility and let me know whether it could be implemented. In the…
I own a rather extensive library of theology books in Kindle's EBOK format, including most of Dr. Mike Heiser's books that are available in Kindle format. It would be very helpful if I could import the EBOK format into my desktop Logos in addition to the docx format. Just a thought.
