Prioritizing Frustration

K... now, when in the OT, the Strong's numbers link to ESL. BUT IN THE NT, Strong's numbers link to WSNTDICT, even though I have set ESL as the priority for BOTH Hebrew Strongs and Greek strongs. I don't even have WSNTDICT prioritized at all. So then I set WSNDICT as a priority, making sure it was below ESL on the list... but still, WSNDICT takes the priority for Greek Strong's numbers. Do you know how I can fix this?

WSNDICT is "The Complete Word Study Dictionary, New
Testament". Under indexes, it says, "Greek Strong's Number" & "Greek
headwords." I set it as the priority for "Greek" and made sure it was
positioned under ESL (which is still set as the priority for both Hebrew &
Greek Strong's numbers). But Greek Strong's numbers still open up to WSNDICT
and not ESL no matter what I do. So I have ESL as priority for Hebrew and Greek
Strong's numbers; DBL is set up for Hebrew and Greek GK numbers; TWOT is set up
as priority for TWOT numbers...... All of these priorities function correctly,
except for Greek Strong's numbers. Greek Strong's numbers have a mind of their
own. The only way I can get both Hebrew & Greek Strong's numbers to go to
ESL is to remove from the priority list any other lexical resource (TWOT, DBL,
etc.) and make sure ESL is the only one prioritized (only 1 copy of ESL with no
"apply only to" designations) and that WSNDICT is prioritized underneath it.
But then I lose my ability to have TWOT numbers show TWOT and GK numbers show
some other resource. I like the idea of how prioritization SHOULD work, but it
just doesn't seem to work the way it was designed to. (I'm considering deleting
WSNDICT from my library altogether to see if that helps.)

You need to Hide it for that to be effective (L4 will automatically restore anything that is missing/deleted). Open Program Settings and click the arrow on Hidden Resources at the bottom. Drag the title there and restart L4 to complete the process.

I still consider this to be a BUG in Prioritisation, but performing the above should confirm it.

I wouldn't prioritise for GK numbers as any keylinking is done with Greek or Hebrew Headwords. Also, it is unnecessary to restrict TWOT as it wasn't stealing keylinks from anything!

Try this:

ESL --> Greek Strong's

ESL --> Hebrew Strong's

DBL Greek --> Greek

DBL Hebrew --> Hebrew

TWOT

WSNDICT

Hiding WSBDICT worked. The heavens opened up, a light shined down and a choir of angels sang. I did, however, have to restrict TWOT to TWOT numbers because it ended up stealing my Hebrew Strong's keylinks. But everything works! The only downside is that I DID like WSNDICT--I just didn't want it linking to my Strong's numbers. It would be nice to occasionally access WSNDICT, but for now the linking issue is more important to me... So until this "bug" is fixed, I'll just have to keep WSNDICT hidden.

Thanks again for your help!
