Highlighting and Notes

That was easy! [:)] But now that i'm able to select just "bread from heaven" how do i add my highlight? When i select the text, then choose the highlight i've set up in the Highlighting panel, nothing happens. In Logos 5, that's all it took. Here it seems i've selected the Highlighting panel.

To "Click the highlight" worked in Logos 5. It's not working for me in Logos 6. However, the keyboard shortcut does. And i'll check out the link you posted later this afternoon. Thanks! Steve. Alabama24, the "three circles" icon in the "resource" – you're referring to my Bible "window panel" ( i want to make sure i understand your terminology i found that ( top of the panel, between the // and the search magnifier ) and checked the note file, but still can't simply "click" the highlight i want. Appreciate the help! Will do some more research when i get a chance. i absolutely love my Logos Bible Software blessings – 

i know how the Highlighting is supposed to work now ( thanks, Steve, for the link; and that's how i was linking in Logos 5 ) but sometimes Logos 6.0b SR-1 6.0.20064 ( alabama24 ) just doesn't do that. i was RE-highlighting ( updating for me ) the word "folly" this morning from Proverbs 26.5; erasing the highlighting that i had to attach a new highlight. My cursor selection is extremely sensitive ( i had already chosen "No" for "Smart Text Selection" ); i highlighted or at least intended to highlight just the word "folly"; clicked Erase and found that my cursor had slipped off of the word "folly" and i erased my highlighting for several verses below. Frustration 1. When i finally was able to select just the word "folly" – and triple-checked that that was the only word i had selected – then i clicked on the "W/f: iv-veh-leth(222)" selection in my highlight menu which did nothing. i had to rename that specific highlight to "F" ( for Fool! ) to get it to work, but that changed my original "F" shortcut from my intended, general "foolishness" to this specific word, which is not what i want. Frustration 2. And now i've spent the last half-hour plus setting up this new message rather than simply reading this morning, which was not how i wanted to start this morning or any subsequent mornings to follow. Frustration 3. i get ( "understand," in part... ) God's discipline and i get ( "suffer":) ) God's discipline ( that's what got me into Logos a few years back ) but i could use some help in figuring out what's changed from Logos 5 that i'm not "getting". blessings – Randy  

Not a "butt in"... Appreciate the input. Except... nothing's changed, other than upgrading from Logos 5 to Logos 6 Crossover ( on my Mac ) so that shouldn't be an adjustment i need to make. It worked fine – as set – in Logos 5 and if i were to change it "universally" for Logos 6, it would also effect all of my other software; Photoshop, Indesign, Illustrator, Dreamweaver ( i'm a graphic designer ), as little Word as i can get away with And what's happening is not so much the "speed" of the curser; if i were to highlight "so that shouldn't be an adjustment" from the beginning of this paragraph, what Logos 6 is doing – when i release the mouse – is selecting "i need to make" ... on down the end of at least the visible page. What i don't understand is why it's doing that?? And why, sometimes though not always, selecting text in a paragraph, and then clicking on a highlight from my highlight menu ( rather than using a keyboard shortcut ) does nothing?? It will move that blue "active" bar or whatever it is at the top of my "active" Bible window and make the Highlight menu active. i don't remember it doing that in Logos 5 either.
