How do I remove unwanted items from desktop?
Whyndell Grizzard: How do I remove unwanted items from desktop?
Wow - what a nightmare just to remove unwanted items from homepage- still haven't achieved anything- what a mess
Currently you can only remove cards from the Dashboard. The remaining content cannot be edited in the current release.

Whyndell, I assume you are referring to the Explore section of the new home page. If so, we are actively working on that feature and hope to ship it in an upcoming release. Thanks for your patience.
Thanks Alan and Fred- I have eliminated the Homepage- I'm opening to a layout instead- releaves the tension.
Whyndell Grizzard: I have eliminated the Homepage
Some of us have another approach - we have enough activity on our Dashboard that the Explore Section is not visible.
Orthodox Bishop Hilarion Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."
Initial thoughts are much better than some previous launches. As with any release there are always tweaks that need to be made and glad to see that these are in process.
I agree with MJ if you have lots of activity on the Dashboard the Explorer is pretty hidden. It's nice being able to move the cards, but it would be nice to have an easier way to delete a card.
Granted only had an hour or so to play around with it last night. Looking forward to having more control over the Home Page and digging into more of the tools.
In Christ,
Ken

Ken Shawver:but it would be nice to have an easier way to delete a card.
You should be able to remove a card by clicking the three icons at the top right of a card
Graham, thanks, but I am fully aware of that. But it can be a bit sensitive - in my opinion - that can cause it to open instead of allowing you to delete it if you don't click it just right.I didn't mean you couldn't delete it, as I have deleted some, but I think there could be away to make it easier so you don't accidentally open it when trying to delete.
Hello...Just upgraded to L8. Let's see, what word to describe this software that's great. OK, can't find a word to describe this awesome software. I love it.
Now, the software engineers in Logos did a wonderful job. Congrats to all at Logos.
Now, the confusing part. How is it that such brilliant software engineers designed such a wonderful tool, did not include "BOOKMARKS" for reading the vast amount of books in a large library???????
I can't seem to figure out why Logos does not employ bookmarks....Can someone in Logos please give a justified reason why bookmarks are not included????
Otherwise, thank you for your inspirations in adding real practical tools.
Thank you...Al Sosa
They thought of Bookmarks too!
Favorites Bookmarks
Favorites Bookmarks are quick-access temporary favorites that can be called up with a keystroke.
Favorites You can have up to nine bookmarks at a time.
Favorites 1. In the lower third of the Favorites panel are a set of nine bookmark placeholders.
Favorites (If you do not see numbers 1-9, and the double arrows next to Bookmarks are pointing to the right, click to expand that section.)
Favorites 2. Click on an available Bookmark to set the active resource at its current location.
Favorites You can also drag the resource tab down to an available bookmark number or press the corresponding shortcut keys to set it.
Favorites 3. Click on an assigned bookmark to open the resource, document, etc. to the saved location.
Favorites 4. To remove a bookmark, right-click on it and choose Clear, or click on the X next to it.
Hi Al,
The bookmarks are in Tools and select Favorites:
Al,
Faithlife provides up to nine bookmarks. You must open the Favorites Panel. (Look under the Tools Menu). At the very bottom of the Favorites panel you'll see the word Bookmarks. Click on it if it is not open.
To assign a bookmark, click on the resource you want to bookmark and use the keyboard combination indicated in the Bookmarks section.
I actually use another method that uses the Favorites Panel, as I also use a mobile device and there is no bookmark option there. In the mobile device I have just one option, "Add to Favorites". It adds the location to a Favorites folder called Mobile Favorites. This is how I bookmark on the mobile device. I send the current location to the Mobile Favorites folder.
That folder is available on my desktop Favorites Panel. When I want to 'bookmark' on the desktop, I drag the tab at the top of the resource panel to the Mobile Favorites folder on the Favorites Panel and drop it. Now I can access that bookmark on my mobile device and I can have as many 'bookmarks' as I want.

Yes, I am aware of this type of bookmarks. It was my fault for not being more specific.I'm looking more toward the right click within the book: Add Bookmark. That's it.
Using favorites, I have to move away from the book I'm reading.I understand that I have to go to the Favorite Panel.
How about: Right Click Add Bookmark (within the book resource or any resource).
And that's it. Two clicks or moves. I don't have to move outside of the book I'm reading to a Favorite panel.No keyboard combinations. Just two clicks. But, this is what it is, no problem. Thanks all of you for responding. Maybe I'm lazy or just used to doing two clicks in other platforms.I've been looking for this type of bookmark now for over 25 years in Logos!! Maybe I should give up...
Thank you all...Al
My opinion is that every single resource should have capability for a few bookmarks. For example, sometimes my wife and I are both reading the same book at the same time. Other times I want to reference a few locations all in a big hurry. Better Bookmarks would do that.

You are right.
