Prioritizing Study Bibles

When I prioritize certain Study Bibles with notes, such as the ESV with study Notes or the Open Bible, they do not appear when I use left/right arrow to choose among Bibles. A similar Bible, thew Net Bible with Notes does appear when prioritized. What am I doing wrong?

Hi Gao,

It's most likely because Bibles and Study Bibles are different types of resources. The notes are seperate resources from Bibles. If you are trying to cycle from one Bible translation it will only go to another Bible translation. The notes for the NET are built into the NET Bible, they are not a seperate study Bible (a seperate resource). Study Bibles are treated like seperate resources.

Thanks. I see that now.

They will appear if you add them to your own collection of bibles and tick the box "Show in parallel resources". Before you use right/left arrows make sure that your collection is ticked rather than "All parallel resources" (in the Parallel resource sets menu).

To explain why Dave's solution works, the all parallel resources only displays resources of the same type as the current resource. But if you create a collection, you can mix different resource types within the same collection.

Keep Smiling 4 Jesus :)

The ESV Study Bible type is Bible Notes. The Open Bible type is Bible Commentary. The NET Bible is type Bible. The NET Bible First Edition Notes is type Bible Notes. Edit: living and learning that parallel resources can mix types using a collection.

When a resource is open and has focus, clicking "+" opens a new tab with same resource type. For various Bible types, the verse exists within Bible verse range for resources on the right hand side:

Screen shot shows + New Tab for The ESV Study Bible, which shows more Bible Note resources on the right side.

Apologies: not know how Logos chooses resource icons for the left side. Noticed many resources are in a collection that includes The ESV Study Bible. Yet, only 50 resource icons are shown while collection has 232 resources.

Keep Smiling [:)]

Logos will only show resources in the parallel resource menu of they have the same reference as the current resource. Presumably the missing resources don't have that reference (or, more likely, they don't even have a Bible reference type).

Your method of creating a collection worked great. Met my needs exactly. I forgot that capability and am reminded how easy it is to quickly make customized lists of quickly available Bible versions.

Dave, I was just reading this thread but I don't understand your screenshot. How do you get anything besides 'All parallel resources'? I've been experimenting with other resources in collections but thus far have not been able to get anything like this to appear.

I'm not Dave, but you can add your collections to the parallel resource menu by making sure the Show in parallel resources option is checked, when you're creating the collection.

Perfect. Thank you.
