I am building a PB based on 1 John and one of the sections is as follows:
"IF WE SAY ..." ([[1:6, 8, 10>>1 John 1:6,8,10]])
In the resulting PB all of the above appears. How is it possible to only have (1:6, 8, 10) appear in the text. Then hover over each verse and it display, as it normally would?
By the way, if I have ([[1:6-10>>1 John 1:6-10]]) there is no problem. It appears that the comma creates the difficulty.
Thanks for any help
Hi Martin
Martin J Webster: It appears that the comma creates the difficulty.
I can reproduce this and agree that the comma seems to be causing the problem.
I couldn't find any workround when using a label - if you just put "1 John 1:6, 8, 10" and let the compiler sort it out (i.e. without doing any explicit tagging) then you will get "1 John 1:6, 8,10" displayed and hovering over each verse works.
I know it isn't exactly what you are looking for but the best option I can come up with.
Graham
did you try ([[1:6 >> 1 John 1:6]], [[8 >> 1 John 1:8]], [[10 >> 1 John 1:10]])

Hello Dave,
Thanks for the suggestion however, it does not work very well. And Graham's suggestion did not work either. I may make a suggestion to Logos.
What didn't work well when using Dave's suggestion? I ask because that is how I've had to do it and believe to be Logos' intention.

Yes, this is the way the Logos Personal Book Compiler works. I was frustrated with this a bit on some of my first books too - until I remembered what the operator ">>" means. It is a signal to send the result of what is on the Right side of the operator to the Left - and I can certainly understand that it gets confused when it has multiple results and not a continuous area to pass on...
So it is a bit more typing, but what Dave suggests works - or at least has for me...
