Is there any way to change the encoding in the sermon builders so that all diacritics can be used?
So far I just can't use it if some letters simply don't appear in the text (literally some, because, for example, "ś" is fine but "ć" is not)...0 -

Would you mind starting a new thread with a more detailed description of what you are trying to do, which application you are using, operating system, etc? That will help us dig in further to discover the issue and work to resolve the problem.

Alan, thank you for the answer.
I have created a new thread (https://community.logos.com/forums/p/195166/1127709.aspx). I have tried to be detailed about the problem, but if there's anything else needed, I'd be happy to give further details.
Thank you for all your work with Logos. I appreciate it!0 -

If you have exported your sermon to Proclaim and your sermon is On Air, you can tap the slide group to navigate the presentation.

by "tap the slide group" do you mean "tapping the icon (3 layered boxes) in the upper right corner will advance the next slide, fill-in, or fade-in bullet"?

I used the new Sermon Builder feature this weekend and was glad it was very consistent with v8's previous layout.
One request: give the option to hide the Slides view in the editor itself. The sermon builder is a word processor for me, not so much a slide editor. Seeing the slides as I write is not necessary. Also, the "yellow highlighter" in the preaching mode, if the device is on dark mode, is difficult to see.
Otherwise, great update to the sermon features. I really appreciated in the in-editor collaboration with my Notes.

No, I mean the slide previews along side the sermon body (or above if you are on a small form factor device).

Thanks Alan! I've been using Proclaim Remote on a Kindle Fire Tablet to control our Proclaim Presentation while preaching, but it is good to know we have a second option for Windows and MacOS devices while preaching/teaching.

If you click on the Panel Menu for the Sermon you can turn "Show slides" off.

Still wish I could bold or underline portions of the scripture text

Thank you so much! I didn't see that option. Glad to know it's there.

I haven't upgraded yet and was wondering if you can build collapsable outlines with the new Sermon Builder. For example if I have 3 main points and various levels of sub-points below each main point, can I collapse the outline to see only the 3 main points?

No - this is not possible.

Did the word counter and estimated delivery time disappear or have I just not found it?
That was super helpful to me.

They have moved to the info pane available on the right of the sermon builder panel.
(At least, I know the timer has. i think the word counter has but im not sure and cant check at the moment)

Does this work on the mobile app in preaching mode as well as the web app? I only found it on the web app so far.

I really want to see an improvement to scripture references in Sermon Builder.
When I insert a scripture I need to be able to tag the entire scripture, not just the reference. Currently, if I input "Jn1.1" I get the entire verse into my edit pane which is awesome. However, if I tag it for the handout it appears as "Jn 1.1" which would be okay in some cases, but not in my case.Even if I try pasting the full scripture in from a Bible it does the same thing.
Currently, the work around is to type a space and then paste in your scripture from an open Bible, but when importing a lot of notes, this gets very tedious, very quickly.
I would love to see a way to paste in a scripture, tag it for the handout and have it appear as the full scripture without the workaround.

Can you edit the sermon on your Android or iOS device yet? Otherwise this feature is still useless to me

Not yet - but it is something Phil Gons said recently they would like to do.
His comment was at https://community.logos.com/forums/p/195303/1128955.aspx#1128955 including a link to vote for this feature

Is there a way every slide in the sermon builder created is numbered? It helps in figuring out which slide I'm in when viewing the thumbnails while I'm in Keynote. There have been times where I jump back to a previous slide in logos but need to know which number slide it is in Keynote. With Keynote the slides are numbered. It's faster to go by the slide numbers rather than fumbling through how many slide ago was it.

To my knowledge you would have to number them in Keynote after you export.Fernando Cinco said:Is there a way every slide in the sermon builder created is numbered?
