How do you mark where you stopping reading in a book, so you can pick up at that point the next time?
Logos automatically saves the place of a book when you close it. It should open up to that spot the next time your open it unless you click a link that will take you to a different place in the book.
Or you can use Favorites or set a bookmark. See: http://wiki.logos.com/Favorites http://wiki.logos.com/Bookmarks
BTW: Welcome to the forums!
One thing I sometimes do is use a special highlighting style to mark the exact spot on the page where I left off with an arrow. I created an arrow image in a .png file and created a highlight style that applies that image to the beginning of some selected text:
Here's how it looks in the marked text:
I'm attaching my arrow .png file here, in case you want to use it. Just right-click and choose Save Picture As.
I select only the first word or so on the line before applying the highlight; otherwise the arrow will get applied to the beginning of all selected lines of text, and I only want one arrow.
This is actually too slow a method currently to be useful, since Logos is unbelievably slow with highlighting at the moment... [:(] Just thought I'd toss it in there as an alternative for someday...
But if you had multiple arrows, it would look like bird's feet, which might be fun...
For something a little more authentic, to give the feel of reading a real book why not try some coffee stains.
You can use the first one to remind you of when it's time to take a coffee break, or maybe to track how many coffee breaks you've had. The second one is more authentic. While the third is just for fun, a coffe stain in the shape of a bunny.
I would think the best way would be the Bookmarks. Press CTRL + SHIFT + [1-9]. This will save the current location as a bookmark. Then to go to that place again press CTRL + [1-9].
You could use the read-ware marks in the scroll bar (the horizontal, colored hashes-the gray hashes are the last 20 read locations). And, as has already been mentioned, a resource will default to the last opened location. However if you are reading through a resource and then later open it to a different location while researching a topic, when you go back to where you left off reading you will have lost your place. You can view your bookmarks by going to Tools>Favorites
Thank you! Those coffee stains are great!
