Readers Edition Interlinear POTENTIALLY a useful feature.
I was really excited when I saw this feature (and how it's SUPPOSED to work). I think it has awesome potential for those who wish to learn Greek/Hebrew and become fluent readers of the original languages. However, until there is a thorough treatment of Hebrew (see this uservoice) it is quite useless in the OT. The problem stems from the same issue discussed in this thread, where stems and affixes are treated separately.
To make the point... information is still hidden for the word directly under the dropdown, even though the stem's lemma only occurs 41 times. That's because of the conjunction and preposition that are attached. I have to set the number to >53k before the information appears on a stem that occurs 41 times!!!!!! Of course by that time 95%-99% of all words will be showing, making this perfectly useless.

Is this feature - Reader's Edition - still enabled in 6.8RC1?
I can't see it anywhere
It should still be available. You'll need a interlinear resource (not a resource with an associated reverse-interlinear). Try The Lexham Greek-English Interlinear New Testament. Then open the Inline Interlinear menu for the options that will turn on the feature.

Yes. Is it not listed in your Inline Interlinear dropdown? I had forgotten myself earlier and looked for it in the Visual Filter menu, but it's under Inline Interlinear.
I must have missed the announcement for this. Any word on if it is coming to the mobile apps?
Unlikely, as it is a feature for Logos Now subscribers

Ah. I saw the thread was under Logos Desktop Beta and wrongly assumed we were talking about a beta feature that would become part of the free engine. I suppose that still could happen even if it is a Now feature. Seems something like this would see the biggest benefit on a tablet, not a desktop. I have long wished there was the equivalent of a reader's Greek New Testament on mobile available rather than a full blown interlinear.
Yep, that is exactly the point of this feature.
