BUG: Columns not working in new version

Logos just updated ityself to Logos Bible Software 6.6 6.6.0.0056

Now columns are not working correctly. reading thios morning it looked OK but then when I paged down the number or columns changed - and now it seems whatever I do it only allows one column. I have tried Auto (my usual setting) as well as numbers - but this gets ignored. It sometimes shows two columns (but really wide columns with a wide window).

Hi Jonathan

I can't reproduce this.

It does sometimes happen if you are getting close to a place in a resource which won't fit in multiple columns - needs the entire width of the page.

Is this a possibility here? And are you seeing this in all resources or just one (if so, which one)?

Hi Graham.

It seems that the NIV and ESV are affected. A commentary I'm looking at does not seem to be. It's not that Logos never shows columns. I am in Exodus 22 for example. In a pop-up window as I widen the window columns do appear, but they're really wide. Also if I force say 2 columns when the window is wide but only showing one, it may flash up two columns but then reverts immediately to one. This behaviour has changed this morning with the new release.

In testing I also notice the left/right-arrow key behaviour has messed up. I'll post that in another thrread.

I can't reproduce this in Exodus 22 with either NIV or ESV

I am running on Windows 8.1. What platform are you using?

I am running WIndows 7.

Maybe someone from Logos could confirm that column behaviour has been changed in the latest version - or guarante it hasn;t been touched in the code!!!

It would probably help us diagnose this issue if you could post a screencast of the problem happening. "Jing" is a free program to record and publish screencasts: https://www.techsmith.com/jing.html

Thanks Bradley. Good idea. I've made a video file but it's quite big (14MB). It shows how in NIV and ESV columns are wacky - but in NIVUK they work as expected! Can you eitehr give me a public upload folder where I can place it, or email me on my account so I can send you a Dropbox link please?

Hi Jonathan, I've sent you an email on where you can send that. Thanks for your help!

Jonathan West

Thanks Dylan. I've emailed the link back. When I watch the video back, the behaviour looks even more weird!

Jonathan,

Could you please provide a screenshot of your Visual Filters menu? One of the devs recommended seeing what happens if you have all of your Note visual filters disabled. Please let me know if you still see this behavior with the Notes filters off.

Thanks!

Hey Dylan.

I went to Lv 5 (where there is no highlighting and no Notes nearby), turned off Notes, and Visual Filters and Reading Plans. Same behaviour. Turned off just Notes. Same behaviour.

Hope that helps.
