Text Comparison:   How do I change the Default of a verse in all Bibles then next verse in all Bibles to all verses from one Bible followed by all verses in the next Bible as it was in Logos 6?  

Example Luke 17:7-8

Old Way: All verses together by Bible selected then the text from the next Bible

KJV 1900 | ‎Lk 17:7 But which of you, having a servant plowing or feeding cattle, will say unto him by and by, when he is come from the field, Go and sit down to meat?  ‎8 And will not rather say unto him, Make ready wherewith I may sup, and gird thyself, and serve me, till I have eaten and drunken; and afterward thou shalt eat and drink?  

New Way Logos 7 Default [and I do not see how to change the setting]

Each verse by all Bibles selected then the next verse 

Luke 17:7

KJV 1900 But which of you, having a servant plowing or feeding cattle, will say unto him by and by, when he is come from the field, Go and sit down to meat?

NET “Would any one of you say to your slave who comes in from the field after plowing or shepherding sheep, ‘Come at once and sit down for a meal’?

Luke 17:8

KJV 1900 And will not rather say unto him, Make ready wherewith I may sup, and gird thyself, and serve me, till I have eaten and drunken; and afterward thou shalt eat and drink?

NET Won’t the master instead say to him, ‘Get my dinner ready, and make yourself ready to serve me while I eat and drink. Then you may eat and drink’?

    If I've understood your question correctly, TC has two layouts, vertical and horizontal. You can switch them from the panel menu.

    Yep, I think they got so excited by their continuous scrolling, they forgot their software had more than 5 Bibles (horizontal display).

    In theory, Mark's answer works, as long as you're careful to avoid using the Logos' 'power of resources'.  In my case, I arrange maybe 30 or so Bibles  by date and also tradition, so I can see the 'flow' in translation.  Or used to, anyway.  Now, a verse or so is about it, before painful.

    But it does not matter if you are in Horizontal or Vertical mode when you copy so that you can paste into a doc you get many copies of verse 7 and then multi copies of verse 8 

    Horizontal Copy  ((this way the verse numbers are listed but not the Bibles))

    7 (7) And which of you having a servant plowingor keeping cattle,that will say to him returning out of the field, Pass quickly, sit down:

    7 “Will any one of you, who has a servant plowingor keeping sheep, say to him when he has come infrom the field, ‘Come at once and sit down at table’?

    8 And will not rather say to him: Make ready my supper and gird thyself and serve me, whilst I eat and drink; and afterwards thou shalt eat and drink?

    8 Will he not rather say to him, ‘Prepare supperfor me, and dress properly, and serve me while I eat and drink, andafterward you willeat and drink’?

    Vertical  copy ((This way the Bibles are listed but not the verse numbers))

    NKJV And which of you, having a servant plowing or tending sheep, will say to him when he has come in from the field, ‘Come at once and sit down to eat’?

    RDR (7) And which of you having a servant plowing or keeping cattle, that will say to him returning out of the field, Pass quickly, sit down:

    RSV2CE “Will any one of you, who has a servant plowing or keeping sheep, say to him when he has come in from the field, ‘Come at once and sit down at table’?

    Luke 17:8

    D-R And will not rather say to him: Make ready my supper and gird thyself and serve me, whilst I eat and drink; and afterwards thou shalt eat and drink?

    ESV Will he not rather say to him, ‘Prepare supper for me, and dress properly, and serve me while I eat and drink, and afterward you will eat and drink’?

    [[I have 12 Bibles in this layout that I use to Study ]]  [[RDR is an older version of the DR]]

    Report it as a bug ... another of those newfangled verses problems. They've only been around for since the mid to late 15th century [Yes, I hate things geared to chapter verse divisions rather than logical linguistic/literary divisions ... and yes, it's probably "by design" but still ...]

    On the bright side, if you get it now and they make it into a Logos resource, they will upgrade you at no additional cost.
