Grey Text
Hello,
As I read the NIV in Logos7, some sections of text are in Grey - why would this be? Some text is in bold too, why is this?
Is there a page with a key for this formatting, and one for the symbols ?
Thanks for any help you can give me!

Hi Matt - and welcome to the forums
Can you give a reference where you are seeing this?
If possible, please post a screenshot showing this in a reply to this thread. Details at https://wiki.logos.com/Screenshot

Thanks for your help Graham,
See the screenshot attached - there's grey text at the top and bold text at the bottom.

This is the result of having the Greek Discourse filter turned on. Runge, Steven E. The Lexham Discourse Greek New Testament: Glossary. Lexham Press, 2008. may have the required explanation.
Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

You're seeing this because you have the Discourse Features (Greek) Visual Filter enabled
The bold text is specifically - or most of it - due to the "Emphasis" components
I don't use this feature enough to comment on all the options. Was it something you had intended to enable?
And I see you also have the inline interlinear enabled. Are you aware you can change which components of that are displayed from the dropdown menu?

Discourse Features (Greek) has grey text for background information (context). Bold text is emphasis (words out of nominal sequence for emphasis).

Thanks KS4J. It would be helpful to have this information available either in Help or in the glossary. Want to request it?

Hello, everyone. Sorry to resurrect this old thread, but I was hoping for more clarity if/where this is listed in any documentation. I, too, have wondered why some text is grey and some words bolded (outside of other, more explicitly marked items) when discourse analysis filters are enabled.
For KS4J or anyone: did you just figure this out through trial and error, or is there somewhere that explains what color change/bolding means?
I'm on Logos 10 and this is the first thing I've been able to find (on the forums or anywhere online) identifying what the grey text represents. I was able to deduce, with a reasonable degree of confidence, that this was the case from context, but I'm kind of surprised there's nowhere (seemingly) that says, "We chose to represent circumstantial frames with grey."

Its esoteric knowledge passed on through the forums ... my way of saying I can't find documentation for it.

Trial & error => esoteric. Part of trial & error was creating "Discourse Analysis" visual filter (with update to new search syntax):
