iOS Tip: 'Where the ... am I?' plus 'Footnote to where?'
Many iOS users have questions on key aspects of the Logos-iOS version (mainly me). Two frequent questions are "where am I??" while reading a book in Logos-iOS (typically those older than George). And also when using LEB, and seeing a footnote, what exactly does it refer to??
The easy solution I found was to simply place the iPad (mini) right in front of the PC with Logos5. You can then easily see where you are. And also locate what a footnote is referring to. Granted, probably reading two computers may seem like overkill. But workarounds are always key when using Logos.

Ouch! But I think you have made your point.
By the way, I like your new iPad mini! [H]

Hi Denise
the issue with footnotes not appearing in the body of the text is, I believe, you have "Bible text only" enabled

You're right Graham! I was thinking about the face of God's green earth and how I'd never have imagined Logos would show the notes; just not the letters! And this is after 4 years of watching Logos thinking too. I definitely lost my Logosian stripes.
Plus, this will save me a lot of time setting up my PC behind my iPad Mini (at least for LEB).
Thank you, Bruce! Nice size for singing Christmas carol too! I always wondered about Christimas choirs and their little books.

Whether or not the notes at the bottom are shown is controlled by the "Inline Footnotes" slider.
There is an argument that having "Bible Text Only" set in a resource should override the global setting on displaying footnotes. I'l ask the question.
