Can I link a PAGES or WORD document to a note? What about linking a note to another note?
I don't know if it is possible to do it with the Logos software, but linking notes in Obsidian from the books or articles I read on Logos works for me.
I link one note to another all the time. I have many "chains" that I update and change regularly. I've posted it before but here it is again….
Note 1
Reference: Joh 316.
Title….
Verse talks about believing in Jesus.

______________________ end of Note 1
Note 2
Reference: Joh 8:24
Title…..
Next: Joh 8:24
Prev: Begining
____________________ end of Note 2
What I do is
Go to Note 2, highlight the word "Next" in Note 2 and then click on the "three dots" in the upper right corner, then choose "copy location" (ctrl-alt-c for windows).
Then go to Note 1 and highlight "Next" then click on "chain symbol" and paste, and click "Save". This way I can click on "Next" in Note 1 and go directly to Note 2.
In Note 2, I do the reverse by going to Note 1, highlighting "Prev" and clicking on the "three dots" in the upper right hand corner, then "copy location", then go to Note 2 highlight the word "Prev" in the Note, click on the "chain symbol" and paste, then click "Save".
This way I can go back and forth through my "chain" of Notes just by clicking "Next" and "Prev". It's a bit of work, I agree…. but it is very helpful to me to be able to go up and down my chains quickly.
I have been doing this since I came to Logos from WordSearch. I do wish there was a better way, but this works for me. 😎
If you have a specific Microsoft Word document that you want to link to, an easy way would be to upload it to a cloud storage platform like OneDrive, Google Drive or Proton Drive and then creating a share link and inserting that share link into your Note file in Logos.
Regarding linkage to Word files: since some time now, Logos supports the file:///…. (or file:\\\… both will work) parameter to link local files, so no upload to cloud or a local webserserver is needed anymore.
You can easily use file:\\\C:\test-folder\test.docx to link to file test.docx in folder C:\test-folder - just type a text in your note, select it and then use the chain-link-button in the notes editor and put the file:/// parameter into it (don't use quotes). Clicking the blue text in the note then will open Word if needed and show the file.

My bible seems to be in parallel mode. When I type in the address of a text it gives me other verses related to the passage that I typed? I just want it to go to that address in my preferred bible and allow me to read that section of scripture? How to I fix this? In the screenshot below I typed in Mk 5: 13 and it gave me…

Here are three things I cannot do in footnotes of a Logos book. I cannot highlight text. I think I supposed to be able to because right-clicking brings up the context menu. But clicking on a highlight choice does not change anything. I cannot anchor my note to the footnote text. The "Add note" menu choice is not available.…
Do you have any idea how frustrating it is to not be able to get simple information out of Logos e.g. which Bibles contain the Letter of Manasseh? the list should be a subset of the Bibles containing the Apocrypha.
