Why doesn't the Sermon Editor accept my topic entry?
Currently, they're limited to "topics" in the sense that is understood by the rest of the Library (like Topic Guide and Factbook). This lets us include your tagged sermons in Guides created for those topics:
In the meantime, you could consider adding additional cataloging comments in the Notes field. If we do add support for freeform tags, you could migrate those notes in the future.
Note at the bottom on the header information is a Private Notes area with the instructions "Put additional cataloging information here". That is the current solution for data not included but required for backward compatibility - place and date, for example.

How can I view mousable apparatus & commentary popups?
This tip is only for very lazy Logosians like me ...
When an apparatus or commentary is listed (passage guides, etc), I want a popup blurb ... not a resource name/cover. I don't want to have to open every single item, to see if has what I'm looking for.
As it turns out, Logos provides two (and only two).
Commentary blurb popups are in the Explorer tool. I keep an Explorer next to my new MultiView panel. I keep 4 major commentaties in the MultiView, and then an Explorer to list my other commentaries ... quickly mousable for blurbs.
Apparatus blurb popups are hidden in the Textual Varient section of guides. I keep a Textual Varient > Apparatus panel next to my original language panels ... then I can quickly mouse the apparati as needed. Remember, the Apparatus section of the guides has title/bookcovers .... not blurbs.
Lazy, I am.
