BUG - Reading Status

I used to be able to go to the info panel in the library, click on the green circle (reading status) and set or reset it. This is no longer working. If I click on the circle nothing happens.

This is on a WIndows laptop running the latest version of Windows and the latest version of Logos.

I see the same in the library column as well as in the library information pane. However, if you open the resource and go through the "kebap menu" on the top right to open the information pane from there, you can reset the reading status (i.e. mark as unread) or, conversely, mark the resource as fully read:

Those options appear when left-clicking the reading status circle.

Not sure whether the lacking functionality in the library is an oversight, a deliberate design decision (?!), a not-yet-implemented feature or a bug.

Hi Mick,

Thank you very much that is most helpful.

Great to hear!

In the the Apple iOS app, you touch and hold the reading status then a dialog comes up to reset the reading status. Thanks, y’all helped me figure it out. I never would thought to do that without y’all talking about the reading status circle. I checked the resource information, but that only has the option to remove the resource.

Hi Robert,

I don't follow you. The only place I can find the reading status on iOS is in the library. Touching and holding that circle does nothing until I remove my finger and then it just opens the resource.

Are you on the latest iOS and the latest version of Logos app?

Thanks,

Tony.

Hi again Robert,

The instructions you gave actually work for me on Android. If I touch the three dot icon at the end of the line (in library view) one of the options is to reset the reading status. However, that item is missing from the same menu on iOS.

iOS 8.5.0.189 That is also my experience.

Hi Philana,

Can you please check that this bug is still outstanding, i.e. to be implemented at a later date.

Tony.

Bump for Philana.

Bump for Philana.

Please can you chase this up. It cannot surely be a big job as the feature was in the software until an update killed it. Also it is a available on mobile.

Is this yet another case where FL thinks nobody wants a feature and just drops it? I believe you could at one time actually not only reset the Reading status but mark it as read also. That is handy when you purchase a Logos book and you have already read the hard copy or in another package in the past.

Thanks Philana.
