I have purchased the Thayer's Greek-English Lexicon and put it in my prioritized  library list right under my Strong's enhanced but when I hover over words in Bibles, it does not come up in the information window.

    Nick - First, welcome to the forums! I don't have that resource, so I can't experiment with it. However, it might help out if you were to give a screen shot of your prioritization list.

    Welcome [:D]

    Apologies: personally not have Thayer's Greek-English Lexicon.  Wonder about indexing ?  Can click "i" in open resource to show information, which includes Indexes.

    Also wonder which Bible resource(s) are being used.

    screenshot shows four resources open to information with their Indexes, plus part of my Library priorities along with Information and ESV Bible:

    Personally have Information configured to update when I click on a word.  After clicking "Rejoice" in Philippians 4:4 in the ESV, the Information shows "Rejoice" English definition from Vine's Complete Expository Dictionary of Old and New Testament Words, which is my highest prioritized resource with English headword indexing that has "Rejoice", which is followed by my highest prioritized resource with Greek headwords that has lemma χαίρω  then morphology is followed by my highest prioritized resource with Greek Strong's s Number that has # 5463.  Next is Louw-Nida, which only has one lexicon with indexing for Louw-Nida Semantic Domains.

    Since my first  screenshot did not show Vine's, after scrolling my library priorities down to DBL Greek, added another screenshot with the rest of my lexicon priorities.

    Note: personally have Louw-Nida's with Louw-Nida Semantic Domains as my last prioritized lexicon.

    Keep Smiling [:)]
