Comments from the Babylonian Talmud not properly aligned
When using the Faithlife Study Bible, and I hover over the link for the Babylonian Talmud to see the comment on marriage, the popup does not show the relevant information.
It is linked to 64b, when it should be linked to 64f.
Note the underlined section.

You're looking at two different reference schemes. Niddah 64a is basically a page number (based on the first major printed edition, and a common reference scheme despite whatever pagination any particular edition uses), while the 'F' is part of Neusner's breakdown into 'sense units' (the full reference of which is: b. Nid. 9:10, I.1.F, and specific to Neusner's translation).

Thanks Vincent. Is it possible, to align the popup with the text to which it is referencing? Presently, it is showing the top of the page.

It is possible by tagging to the Neusner datatype, and that is more handy or drilling down to a specific passage, but that would have the drawback of the links only ever working with one edition of the Babylonian Talmud (while it is theoretically possible to line up any future editions to Neusner's numbering, that would be a tremendous amount of work). But I'll make sure the editors know their options. Perhaps they could double tag the references.

Extra work (if implemented) at not cost to the consumer, just a download. That is why Logos is my platform of choice for Bible software.
