rating books?
I don't know how to title this query.
I'm reading Carson's book on commentaries. He singles out one commentary in the Hermeneia series for special attention. I want to be able to open a passage guide in the future and always have that book identified n some way so that I know to give it special attention.
The series is already prioritized and I have a technical commentary section that appears at the top of the guide, so this book is in there.. There are 10 books in that section for that Bible book, and of course, the list doesn't identify which commentary is from that set, so I would have to click on every one to find out. But I won't think 3 years from now that this particular work deserves maybe a first look. After all, there are 66 books in the Bible, so there will be many other books that will fall into this category.
Am I asking too much?

close but not quite
You did help me to understand more about this advanced function, though I admit when i was trying to figure it out, I couldn't close the menu without deleting everything I put into it. Maybe because I put the wrong information into it.
I want to be able to go to my passage guide and know that certain commentaries deserve a special look. DACarson highly recommends Hebrews in the Hermeneia series. I already get Hermeneia in my top commentaries, because it appears in my technical commentary section, along with 9 other titles. Plus Logos doesn't tell me which one it is. I have to click on each one to find it. But I may not remember down the road this recommendation as he does this for all the books of the Bible and a dozen more series. I want to be able to keep track of which particular books deserve a prioritized look. Yes, I have the prioritize function, but after the library gets so large, there are a lot of books that get there. Am I making sense?

maybe you can answer this question.
In the video the prioritize list looked different from mine. It was wider and had several headings on it. Plus the video talked about putting resources at the top of your, what, dictionary list, or commentary list. I know that Bibles go at the top of the prioritizing list, but I just have one list for everything. Am I missing something here?
Thank you

You should prioritize commentaries after bibles in your prioritizing list (which is in your Library).
The commentaries that deserve special attention can be prioritized as you like, but put them into a single collection and make sure that collection is added to your Passage Guide.
If a number of commentaries are called "Hebrews", which is confusing, then change change the title e.g. to Hermeneia: Hebrews

My question was about the appearance of the prioritizing option in the video, but your idea about creating a collection would work good. Thank you.
