Passage in all versions
Hi All,
How do one run a passage in all versions in V4? Under search, Bible search, if i type the reference John 3:16 & set it to search in all version, all passages. It runs a search but no result. Am i missing something. I can do this easily in V3. Thanks.

You can use the Text Comparison tool for that. It does the work of Passage in All Versions, Parallel Bible Versions, and Compare Parallel Bible Versions from v3.
Just select the versions that you want or create a collection with the versions you want, and select it. Also, deselect the Show Differences "A" on the window. And you get this:

And if you tell 4.0 to open this tab in a floating window you can align the verses in horizontal rows or vertical columns and do a number of other things to compare the texts.
It doesn't have to be a floating window, however you do get a fixed width window if you open it without telling it where to go. If you want horizontal, you can also drag it around the main window to a more appropriate place.

BTW, there's not an easy way to identify all the English bibles in the library.
I tried "type:bible AND lang:english" but that gives a lot of spurious hits like NA26 and "Novum Testamentum Graece, Varia Lectio (Tischendorf)" and Septuaginta, plus a lot of commentary-provided translations.
I have two English Bibles collections: a small one of primary bibles that was built manually, and a second one where I added a tag to all the bibles I want to be considered English Bibles, and built the collection to included all the books with that tag.

todd,
here is my list:
type:bible lang:english -message -paul's - noteless -readers
that took care of all and I excluded the message, the NET noteless bible, the NIVR, the "St Paul's epistles" series.
I had no greek bibles included automatically
I use this collection for a LOT of things.

yeah, the reason I went with tags is because I can browse the list in the library with "mytag:englishbible", and I can't browse a Collection in the Library window. I wish we could.

Lol...
We don't have a life. At least I don't.
And i pay a lot of attention to: Dave HootOn Todd Philips, and Phil Spitzer!

Thank you all.
Robert Pavich, Todd Phillips, Dave Hooton & Philip Spitzer do you guys work for Logos & actually involved in the design of V4? You guys know a lot about V4, how come!
Ted.
Yes, but I'm still waiting for my first paycheck.
Philip, et al. you will be paid with a free crossgrade to L4 based upon your current base package (yay scholars gold!)
The truth is, I probably would have shot them $20 to be a part of the beta program...shhhh...don't tell Bob.
Hi Ted, and others ~
You can also do a quick compare of the current reference with your top five prioritized Bibles by pressing Alt+` (that's the tick mark below tilde(~). If you select a passage with multiple verses and press Alt+`, all the verses will be compared and displayed, along with a scrollbar on the right if necessary.

Bohuslav,
Can You do this with Your keyboard layout?
I use a UK keyboard and there is a "#" under the "~" on mine.Bohuslav,
Can You do this with Your keyboard layout?
I can't check yet because L4 has just performed another download / install and is indexing again!
I think we in Europe have a subtly different keyboard layout with the various punctuations being on different keys. Have you ever tried a French Keyboard - its WILD!!
Thats why I think it's important and would be great to find key combinations which will work independent of keyboard layouts.
Like for instance the F# keys? Aren't they pretty much global?
Let's see F1 is taken for help, F3 for search the rest are open, plus you have the ALT and CTRL keys to modify... the possibilities are endless.
Sarcasm is my love language. Obviously I love you.

Don't forget F8 is drawing mode, and F11 is reading mode.
CTRL-F4 closes a pane; Alt-F4 closes a Window/program.
F10 makes a menu active. In L4 it usually activates the "Home Page"
button. Press F10 and Enter and the Home page appears ( doesn't seem
consistent and I don't know why anyone would want to do this.)
There are probably a few other not-yet documented/implemented function key combos present, or on the way.
BTW, F3 doesn't enter search mode in L4 (at least not for me), it will only find the next instance of a current search.
Used as Windows conventions, but apparently not implemented in L4:
F5 refreshes the screen in almost all browsers and some programs.
CTRL-F6 is used by most Windows programs to switch the active pane in the current program.
So the possibilities aren't endless, but there should be some combination that would work and could be assigned to a function key for this simple operation.

Thanks Rich,
There's a few I didn't know about! F10 does the menu? Cool!
But you also demonstrate the point, there's so much of the function keys unused, and yet for some reason software developers seldom attempt to use them.
To summarize
F1 = help | (+modifiers = nothing)
F2 = | (+modifiers = nothing)
F3 = Next search result | (+Ctrl = prior search result) | (+alt= )
F4 = | (+ctrl = close pane) | (+alt = close program)
F5 = refresh | (+modifiers = nothing)
F6 = | (+Ctrl = switch active pane)
F7 = | (+modifiers = nothing)
F8 = Draw | (+modifiers = nothing)
F9 = | (+modifiers = nothing)
F10 =menu | (+modifiers = nothing)
F11 = reading mode | (+modifiers = nothing)
F12 = | (+modifiers = nothing)
Modifiers can be CTRL / ALT / SHFT / CTRL+ALT / SHFT+CTRL / SHF+ALT / CTRL+ALT+SHFT That means every key has 8 possibilities X12 keys = 96 itterations.
Not quite endless as you said, but still that's pretty impressive, and most softwares don't ship with near 100 keyboard shortcuts.
Best part IMHO is that a simple template can be printed out and cut to be placed over the F keys to quickly demonstrate all the shortcuts. Remember when that used to happen all the time?

I haven't a clue. I was searching for this same thing the other day. All I found was compare pericope and the version river, and that didn't seem to be all of them.
One way would be to use the "compare versions" feature. I put it on a tool bar short cut.
go to your passage. click "compare versions" either type in the versions or use a collection; in my case it was "all english bibles"
