Is using a multi-column layout:
How does Logos choose which column to open a resource in?
Is there a way to force Logos to open a resource in a preferred column?
drag-and-drop the title or reference
it is a complex algorithm that I find difficult to predict and even harder to find Eli's description of in the forums. But it is better than its predecessor.
Thanks for the reply. I should have clarified: to force Logos to open a resource in a preferred column on a mouse click. When opening several commentaries from the Sermon Guide window it's a bit of a nuisance to drag each one where I want it. In my layout I would want all commentaries on a click to open in my middle column, but presently they tend to open in a random (probably not so random but I can't tell) place.

Yep Alan - both you and the rest of the world - there is logic in the way it is done but that logic escapes most folk. :-)
Hi Alan
I think https://community.logos.com/forums/p/103803/718546.aspx#718546 is Eli's post that MJ was referring to - and I think is still a current description of how it is designed to work.
It would be interesting to know if what you are seeing is consistent with the design decisions Eli outlines.
Read Eli's post and I can't say I see anything that resembles a set pattern. My suggestion: I would prefer a simple method of remembering where the resource was last positioned and for it to open in in the same place again.

Five years later, and this is still needed. When you use the commentary guide to open a commentary in a three column layout, it opens in a column you may not want it to open. It would be nice to be able to specify in which column a resource opens, when clicked on from another column.

Instead of clicking, try drag-and-drop which allow you to place it in the column/pane of your choice.

Yes, that's what I have been doing...again, and again, and again, and again. It would save a lot of time if they just opened where I want them to.
