Bible results when searching in All Bibles display problem

When I searched for "witness" in All Passages All Bibles" the results only occupy four verses at the very bottom of the screen because of the length of some of the Bible versions. The biggest culprits are some of the commentaries in which their translation was made an individual resource: "St Paul's Epistles to the .....................:A Translation takes a lot of space. I can't see how to make in smaller either.

 

Also do we really need the NET Bible and NA27 twice? I know I asked for All Bibles but I didn't really mean it ;-)

    Hi Tom,

    I did the same search but I made a collection of English bibles and got rid of the redundant "NET without notes" and the "St. Paul's" series, the Lexham series, ones that I thought were useless like "The message" and the "opentext bible" and anything in another language since searching a word is "language dependant" and you're not going to be searching for an english word and a greek word in the same search I believe.

     

    as you can see; it's readable, and much faster.

    That default "All Bibles" collection is useless.

    Try the short title facility in the "I" or Info box for the resource in Library.

    It's supposed to default to "Top Bibles", but that isn't sticking. We'll fix it in a future beta. (This is your Top 5 Bibles from the Resource Priority list, and a much more useful default.)

    bob,

    ahh..thanks for that.

    Please take my "useless" with a grain of salt. What I really meant was "When searching for an English word, it seems that the "All bibles" collection is less useful  than the "English bibles" collection that I've created."

     

    No offense meant.
