Bug: Some Formatting errors - ISBE - Revised
Hi
I observed some formatting error, thought should report here as it appear to be systemic. The example here is an entry "Chronology of the OT" from ISBE, Revised. On Logos 5.2 SR 6 on Mac.
- LLS:14.0.24
- 2013-12-03T19:21:19Z
- ISBE.logos4
(1) Table of Content Sub-Bullet List items
(2) Timeline tag icon in the middle/inside of the word
(3) Table formatting - title column alignment issue
Request: Hopefully this get fixed and others. Thanks.

Hi LimJK
I've already submitted a case for the list, and I can do so for the placement of the flags, but I don't follow you in regards to the table at the end. Are you taking issue with the cell amounts decrease in a step fashion from left to right?

it seems the table heading row used combined cells, which LimJK indicated by colors. As it is now, the table gives misleading information.
Have joy in the Lord!

Hey, that's a dang handy chart if it gets fixed!
I too have noticed the strangely placed timeline flags passim and the often jumbled content outlines at the beginnings of articles. ISBE is my favorite dictionary overall, would love to see it fixed.

Ahhh, yes. Ok. Thanks NB.Mick.

The table also has a wrong number in it, which may be a typo. The age listed for Methuselah in the MT is 868. But I've read elsewhere (NBD) that the MT and LXX agree on 969 as his age. Also, the two other age values for Methuselah in the MT, "Age at Son’s Birth" and "Remainder of Life", add up to 969 (187 + 782). I've reported this as a typo.
This makes me trust the table less.

Logos,
Bump ... hoping to get attention to fix them. Item (2) of the OP was fixed, but, formatting issues of Item (1) and (3) has not been fixed.

Logos,
I still see lots of errors in regard to the OP's item # 2 (i.e. Timeline flags inserted within words). Is this being worked on?

A new version of the resource was generated on Aug 27 2014:
And I see item #1 is FIXED:
Item #2 seems to happen less, but the problem still exists:
Item #3 is fixed:
(But the MT Methuselah age is still wrong.)
Let's get those timeline flags fixed!

This is on our list to fix. (It comes from the timeline resource, not ISBE, so it will not be addressed with an ISBE update.)
