apocrypha preferences

I would like the 1900 King James version to be high in my preferred Bible list for canonical references (from a Protestant perspective) but for the NRSV to take presedence for apocrypha references (although not for canonical references). The problem that I have is that when I add the KJV to the preferred Bible list it also adds the apocrypha even though this is a seperate book.

My workaround has been to replace the 1900 KJV with the 1769 Authorised Version as a preferred Bible (which does not contain the apocrypha) as well as placing the NRSV low on the list so that it is the resource that is referred to whenever I hover over apocrypha references. The problem with this is that I would  prefer the 1900 to the 1769 KJV edition.

Is there a way to limit the preference of the 1900 edition to the single canonical volume?

    Right click the KJV1900 (2 Volumes) and remove from the Prioritize list.  Right click the KJV1900 in Library and prioritize the resource rather than the series. Move that to the appropriate place amongst your bibles. The NRSV can now be lower than the KJV1900 so that it will be the first to pick up apocrypha references.

    Many thanks, I really appreciate the time you have taken to help me out here.

    My problem was that I was dragging and dropping the resource when as you have suggested I needed to right click and select the resource. Like most things with Logos it is obvious once you know how.

    The irony is that I think that I now prefer the 1769 resource, it may not have as many references but its layout is much nicer than the 1900 edition.
