Hi. I can't seem to find a way to get information generated in the Bible Facts Tool Panel exported or copied for use elsewhere. I would think this could be exported to a verse list or copied for use in WP software. Anyone out there got any ideas??
Click the the down arrow tab at the top of the pane and select Print/Export
I'm on a Mac... I don't see an option like you describe, but there's a down arrow in the lightbulb icon that gives some options. Neither "print" nor "export" are among them, though. I want the scripture references and text in the working pane. It isn't selectable and won't export.
Hi Bob, and welcome to the forums!
You're right ... I'm on Windows and sure enough there's no print/export. So at best you have to kludge the copying:
- For the images, easiest to right click over the image and copy or to Powerpoint
- For the left-panel text, highlight and copy (you have to start your mouse at the END of the text and go backward to highlight).
I assume the Mac is as above; if not ...
Thanks, DMB. Looks like I'm... uh... all Mac'ed up. I can't get text to select in that pane at all.

On the PC if I right click in a section on the left I have the option to 'select all'. It only selects that section.
Using Ctrl-C on the PC (option-c/cmd-c? on the Mac) I can copy the contents of the right pane to the clipboard.
Also on the PC there is a menu item for Copy. Again it copies the right panel.
I'm on windows. This is what I see in my drop down in the Bible Facts tool
Fred, you are also using the 5.0a beta! It will be in that release when it comes along.

You're right Mark. oops! I forgot I am running the beta. Sorry for the confusion
Thanks, Mark. Must be a Mac issue. Copying using either option on the Mac doesn't capture anything.
On both the Beta and the Stable a two finger click gives...
which I saved to the desktop and copied here.
In the bar on the left hand side a two finger click beside Role, Dictionaries etc gives...
When I select copy and paste this is what I get...

There is supposed to be feature parity. I hope someone from Logos can take a look at this.
EDIT: Maybe Mike has the answer.

Keep Smiling [:)]
I'm on 5.0 SR-4, on Lion 10.7.5.
I don't have the same options and none of the ones available produce results involving the text / look up pane on the left.
This is what my drop down from the lightbulb icon produces...
KS4J showed you the beta version, again with a feature the released version doesn't have (Print/Export).
I think Mike Binks showed a right click menu on his stable (read that 'released' or non-beta) Mac version. I assume you have tried that and you do not get the same results?
Sorry I got lazy...
The first of my screen shots - the family tree does work on the L5 SR4 but the second does not (it is missing the option to copy which does appear in the Beta)
You can rest assured though that the features are coming - they are just working their way through the system.
Sorry for any confusion.
@Mark... correct. @Mike... thanks, Mike. This is me, resting assured :-).
