Tip -- rename your commentaries
If you have a bunch of commentaries, you might have a list that all show the same name. Notice several named "Acts" in this list:
If you click on the information button of an opened commentary, you see a little pencil. Click it and you can rename that resource:
Now the list looks like this:

Good tip! I have been frustrated by the very problem you described and made a thread suggesting Logos have thumbnails next to the titles for rapid identification. I did not get hardly any response from users or Faithlife staff, but I am glad to see your post with an alternative solution. I will definitely be implementing this when I have a chance!
It will be an ongoing thing to go through all the commentaries. Usually, I do a whole series in one book--Acts in this case.
How, specifically, would I want to rename a commentary to make it more useful?
Take a look at his first list - There are two books called "Acts". After a while you might find one "interesting" and the other "junk". In this search both show up and you will soon learn which is which. But in another search only one shows up - is it "interesting" or "junk"? In my example you might want to rename them to "acts interesting" and "acts junk". And then you will be able to tell them apart. [[He used "reform" for one. The author's name or title of some sort might be a better choice then "junk" [6]]]
[Y] Great tip.
I wish it would default to use the series name when it is available. I have prefixed the titles of many of my commentaries with the abbreviated series name, e.g. PNTC, WBC, etc. Unfortunately, the mobile app ignores the changes.
I wonder if placing a numerical or alphabetical prefix might further help in picking commentaries. An A list B list & so on.
Your suggestion so it will be your experiment. Keep good notes so that you can undo it if it does not work. Maybe limit the experiment / test to no more then ten items? Sample Questions to be resolved: Do the 'A' items sort first in a search? [Then we can control prioritization] [[Any one else have suggestions on this experiment?]]
