Help with prioritizing Bibles
Hey!
I am doing a lot of work in the Septuagint at the moment. When I do a search (on a lemma for example), I want the links in the search results to take me to the Logos LXX, so I put that at the top of my prioritization list. The problem is that now all of my links point to the LXX, so for example, if I am reading in something like BDB and I want to check a reference, I would like to hover over that link and see it in English, not Greek. Is there anyway to accomplish this?
Thanks for any suggestions!

You could use the Inline Search tool to do your search directly within the Logos LXX resource. Then you won't need to click through to see the results, so you won't need to use prioritization. Click the magnifying glass icon at the top of the Logos LXX panel to open up the Inline Search tool.

If you search on the Logos LXX, you will get links to the LXX, regardless of your prioritisation, so there's no need to prioritise the LXX over English versions. Or am I misunderstanding you?

Thanks again for responding to my post Mark! The scenario you describe is how I expected Logos to function, but it does not. If I have the ESV at the top of my priority list (as I normally do) then clicking on a link in the search results takes me to the ESV, regardless of what resource I am searching in. If I don't have the ESV open, then it opens a new instance of the ESV, which is a pain because I want the results to come up on several linked panels.
Here is an example of my search results:
Here is what happens in my layout when I click on the link. Logos opens a new instance of the ESV:
For interest sake, here is my prioritization list:

Thanks for the suggestion Andrew! The problem is that inline search isn't flexible enough for what I need to search.

Two issues:
- did you mean to use Hebrew morphology on a Greek text?
- did you notice Mark has all Bible text where you have all text?
See if changing the first fixes the link problem.

In Analysis view, turn on the Resource column. Clicking the hyperlink "LXX" in that column will open the LXX to the search hit. (Clicking the reference will open your preferred Bible, as you have discovered.)

Bradley, I'm so glad you jump in an point out "the obvious" which we miss ... so many details to learn many of which are very useful.

That was the trick Bradley.
Thanks!
