Prioritising resources in Collections

Is there a way to order or prioritise books in a Collection?

I've added four bibles to a collection I'm wanting to use in the Text Comparison window. However there does not seem to be a way to order the bibles in the sequence I want them to appear - it defaults to the alphabetised list in the collection and not according to the library priority list.

If I select Top Bibles it of course uses the Bible in the order of my Library Priority window - but I don't want to be restricted to this list or order.

I could always manually enter the Bible abbreviation into the Text comparison window but why when I could use Collections and speed things up.

No - a collection has no intrinsic attribute for ordering its resources. Tools/guides/searches that use a collection will order the results differently.

Alan,

As a work around what I do is exclude the primary bible and then include it with a comma and the collection. Below is a sample of my greek text comparison using this technique. Hope this helps.

Resource title prefixes can be modified so alphabetic sort in Text Comparison shows last revision date (or desired prioritisation):

Also can compare a collection of Bibles:

John,

How is it that you have Gentium Greek font in your text comparison window?

The font in my text comparison window is some ugly font that is not the one I have selected as the default Greek font to display in my resources. I'm running the windows version.

Running Mac version. My Greek font is set to Galatia SIL if that helps.

No need to exclude it. It works the same if it's in the collection.

Thank you both for the enlightenment [I]
