BUG?: Books Search: cannot expand all results (24.0.11)

See https://community.logos.com/forums/t/214668.aspx.

I have just used the Books Search. My search results are grouped by Book and sorted by Count, just I prefer on this occasion. How can I get expand all results for every book all at once, rather than doing this tedious task one book at a time?

I would expect that right-clicking (at least) on one of the carets controlling the results expansion would generate the option to Expand All results with a single click. Logos 9 let me Expand All results in analogous situations.

Hi,

Thank you for pointing this difference out. We did not include the option to "expand all" with L10 due to prioritizing the performance of search results. There was a component of technical feasibility that lead to the exclusion of "expand all" as well.

What I gather from this is that you know that this feature is no longer present.

Now I would like to know whether you plan to add it back in. (Please do.)

I see no need for Expand All to be carried out the same way as before, but the Expand All/Close All functionality really needs to be available somehow.

Seconded. I didn't do a search to be told how many times it occurs. I need to see everywhere it occurs in context.

Did you try the None view? That might give you what you are looking for.

If not, please clarify further.

Hi Graham,

Thanks for your help. I don't know what the None view is, could you please explain. The closest thing I can see is Sort by Relevance / Reading order.

I am trying to find all the headers in Song of Solomon, to compare how the NIV, ESV, LEB, etc interpret the Hebrew and divide the text. It is similar to the Compare Pericopes but more detailed so I can see the speaker labels. I am doing a Books search because (as far as I know) that is the only way to search the Heading Text instead of the Bible Text.

Thanks.

You can see different ways of grouping your results here - None is the last grouping option

So are you trying to do something like this?

I see. Group By wasn't showing up because I was searching within a single book. But that doesn't really help for what I'm trying to do.

Here's an example: If you compare Song 1:4-5, the NIV has the woman beginning to speak in 4b but the ESV has the woman beginning to speak in verse 5. I am trying to find these

If the Book Search showed all of the hits instead of the first hit in each chapter (like the original poster requested), it would be simple to see these differences. Instead the search just sends me back to the book so I have to scroll through every chapter of every translation, thus defeating the purpose of a search.

It seems like a similar problem to this one. I found the specific search field for headings (heading: in this list, but it only works in Book searches. If I limit it to a single Bible and search at the Sentence level, I can get it to show the verse reference and the heading, but none of the context like the first hit per chapter above.

I don't see a way of doing this using the Search feature. If you put the different Bibles into Multiple Books View (https://support.logos.com/hc/en-us/articles/360016304832-Multiple-Books-View), you could scroll through them all at the same time
