Is there a way in Logos 4 to do a topic search in books other than the default dictionaries? I often like to run topic searchs using my own collections but can't figure out a way to do that.

Thanks. But couldn't find my answer there.
The quick answer is that you can't... yet. Some of us are currently badgering a Logos staff member to try and get this reinstated.
One thing you can try is to open the topic in one resource, then click the + tab and see the topic in similar resources.
Thanks Mark, That's what I'm gathering. I too hope they include this feature. From what i read the concern is how unreliable the results were. That may be true but i was still able to get great information from this feature.
Blessings, Bruce
Sorry Bruce,
I'm usually more verbose, Mark got it right.
Note to self: don't try to post answers on the way out the door...
Not a problem Thomas. I was hoping that it would be as simple as changing the search perameters to a collection but that only limits the word search and not the topic search. Oh well, I'll keep hoping the add this feature.
Bruce, I have found running a basic search on the term you want to do a topical search on in the entire library or a collection does pretty good if you select to view the search by rank. Try it for example on one of the Theological Journals and see if this helps in the meantime.
