Tool to EASILY prioritize commentaries for individual books of the BIble
I would love to see Faithlife include a tool for Logos that makes it easy to quickly prioritize commentaries for individual books of the Bible. Yes, I know this can already be done with advanced prioritization, but I am envisioning something even more simple. For example, I would like to open the tool, click on a button for Genesis, and then it open up a customizable number of blank, numbered slots. I could then drag favorite commentaries from my library to fill up these slots in the order I want them prioritized. Then I could click Exodus, Leviticus, etc., and do the same. I would want the settings from this tool to override all other prioritization settings.
Taking this idea to its logical conclusion, I wish this method of prioritization could be used throughout Logos. There would be a button for Bibles I could press and then easily prioritize Bibles. There would be buttons for Greek words, Hebrew words, English words, etc.

This sounds excellent.

For commentaries on individual volumes, annoyance for Prioritize this resource is placement at bottom of list, which has to be followed by drag and drop into desired location.

As important as this step is in setting up Logos, I would think that they would have improved this years ago. This alone would be worth upgrading Logos.
This is long overdue.

Yes! This or something else is long overdue. I would love to see Logos make the prioritization function much much simpler. As it is it would take weeks of work for someone with an average sized Logos library to prioritize all their resources. Currently working on this now, and lets just say I'm a wee bit frustrated by the current process...

Serious? Maybe since Libby's been a great help on which resources have which indices, it's pretty quick. Talented lady.
But yes, I'd hate to be new to Logos ... prioritizing commentaries, which similar-but-not numbers should go first, and the importance of less-to-many prioritizing. Luckily the wiki is pretty helpful (not the software, though).

Give your fav commentaries a star rating and then make a custom passage guide which filters by stars. Super quick and easy.

Why not just call it L3??
If it weren't Libby, some of us would report DMB's forum account hacked which could lead to grave consequences for the team responsible for security. It was Libronix 3 not Logos 3
