I am surprised to find that I am relying on only three Saved Layouts. How many do you use regularly?
One.
But it's big. 5 windows to cover research, OT, NT, reading, etc.
Used to have more, but easier to use multiple windows, and leave in memory for weeks at a time. Don't have to constantly reload, everything in its place, and a reminder of what I should be using.
Hi John,
While I have numerous saved layouts,I find that in reality I only use about two.
just two or three that i use regularly. but will often save a tweaked layout while i'm doing a particular study so i can go back to that prep till i'm done. I tell myself i'm going to delete them after i'm finished but i have accumulated quite a lot of old layouts lol
I have 12 but normally use 4: NT, OT, Read, Skim [8-|]
5 windows! Holy cow! I'd like to have work space like that.
mm.

Same here. I have a fair amount of saved layouts. The reason I have a lot is that I'm very much a mood reader/studier. I'll go two or three weeks reading a historical type of layout, then I'll switch to a theology layout and then if I'm in the mood for book study layout, away I go. Don't think I'm ADD but I get bored waaaaay toooo fast with the same ol same ol.
How many do you use regularly?
I have dozens, and that's after deleting 20 or 30, finding out they negatively affect Logos' performance. I use most of them occasionally, but use about six of them regularly. A few are temporary (in a certain resource, for example) and will be deleted when I finish that project.
I admit I probably overuse them, but find them useful so take advantage of the feature.
I sure wish they would fix the problem of the extras bogging things down.
Denise,
Can you post a screenshot of that Big Window of yours? Sounds interesting.

This is a bit embarrassing considering how few others seem to have, but I just did a count and found I have 63. [:S]
I didn't plan it that way -- it just evolved as it allowed me to use common resources in a variety of studies set up on several books of the Bible as well as various topics, mobile ed courses, etc, and always have those common resources for a particular study open to the right place when I open the layout. Perhaps there's a better way to accomplish the same thing, but I've always found it so easy to do it with layouts, that I've never had reason to consider other options.
I have 63
Rick, you know those are dragging your performance down, right? I can't find the thread, but learned it from a similar thread late last year.
As for now, you can start singing a certain Beatles song once you install the next layout. [:D]

Perhaps U mean The Buckinghams: ''Kind of a Drag'' [1967].
Great song from a great era!
I use 3; one for Old Testament study, one for New Testament study, and one for any special project I'm working on.
CKRC, buddy.

I have about 20.. I love using them and they help remind me of things I want to get back to..
Very few, one or two saved relating to a specific studying project or mobile ed course I am working through and then my goto adhoc generic workspace which I use most of the time and fluctuates pretty much each time I user the software.
11 layouts
But only 5 regularly used: 1 Current Deep Study 1 Multi Bibles {all my English Bibles}3 for weekly church bible studies {3 weekly classes so 3 studies}
Some of the Others :2 for checking a PBB Bible that I most likely will never finish {DR of 1585 / 1609 - converting from a PDF}1 old deep study to see how many new hits I should examine {currently more than twice what I used in the study)
I was really after, "When I'm 64," but yours works too.
