I would like to know more about word search feautes

I have become more enthusiastic to learn when , I saw in http://community.logos.com/forums/t/47500.aspx what Dave has mentioned about, how to limit search"Holy BEFORE 1 word Holy BEFORE 1 word Holy" I have tried this and it has given me a wonderful result. So I think it would be very useful if there is away to learn more about such search features apart what is already in the Wiki.

Wiki Getting Started with Logos => Search includes Tips plus links.

Thankful for many friendly forum discussions: have learned a lot about searching. Caveat: aware have lot more to learn; already appreciate learning Hebrew alphabet and vowels being useful for Old Testament searching.

Note: learning Syntax Search can take a lot of trial and errors, see thread for some => how to search a greek phrase in any wordorder?

Hi, Graham,yes it is extremely useful, I have been watching it. May the Lord bless him and every body who contributes to the forum to help us to be able to study the Word of God accurately. I love to study my Bible inductively, searches as Dave has mentioned and the visual filter are powerful tools may the Lord bless Logos for this. What I mean is some other search features, which are not yet included in the wiki.

Hi Tes

As far as I know most of the search features are documented in the wiki (some of the details of syntax searching are not) and so the way to move forward is to use the features which are outlined there and include them in the way in which you search your resources.

If you want to do something you don't know how to, please ask.

It may not be possible but - if it is - one of the benefits of this forum (as you know) is that there are normally people around who can help work out how to do it.

Hope this helps

For example, I'd like to know if I can distinguish among searches of tables, charts, photos, etc. So far, I've just found #image searches, which are, imho, too general.

Hi Roger

Have you tried "#image ANDEQUALS table", "#image ANDEQUALS chart", etc

As per http://wiki.logos.com/Detailed_Search_Help#Searching_for_images this filters images by checking on what is in the associated caption.

One option is searching Title for table or chart:

Ok, let me share this little exercise:

What are the most common visual helps in a book? Tables, charts, graphs, maps, etc.. Sometimes use generic names, i.e. fig. #, CHRT #, etc.. Now, like Adam, we have no choice but to bring them a name. What names have in Logos? Look at the table.

If I'm right, these same inaccuracies will repeat looking for tables, charts, maps, etc.., when searching for a tag, title, or ANDEQUAL with a specific name, because there is only a command for all ot them (#image), we will find the others names, only if they are correctly taged, or tittled, or depending whether or not the name is captioned. Or it can be interpreted differently?

Description is another useful field to search:

When searching for visual images, appears fields Description, Tag, Title are useful:

Edit: Description field includes hymnal plus more:

Great info. Wish we had an expanded wiki page to document all the various search fields and what they can be used for, with nice examples such as what you've given. We have this page already, but the descriptions are short and sometimes somewhat cryptic.

Wonder about adding search Tip additions to Getting Started with Logos => Search plus Basic Search => How do I search for images? and => How do I search for topics?
