BUG: turning off the added versions in the Bible Search results

In similar situations, Logos allows me to toggle the display on and off without changing the options for what displays. Here I must uncheck each version in the list until the list is empty, save, and only then can I return to the single version display form. I wasted so much time because I assumed it worked like the others that I asked for help on the forums before I finally figured out what to do.

I'm still struggling to understand what you are describing MJ - can you post screenshots to illustrate?

1. The blue button doesn't serve as a toggle

2. the vertical/horizontal cannot both be off

3. I had to uncheck each of the 4 versions and hit save to turn the ____ thing off.

I expected it to toggle like the interlinear or multi-view ...

Thanks MJ - I understand now and agree it isn't good!

Interestingly, on the web app there is a Remove all option - still not a toggle but better than the current desktop beta.

See my Bug report from Beta 1.

It was a bad idea to transition this button from the web app and have yet ANOTHER way to choose multi-books (and I share your frustration with the functionality of the actual button parts).

Having said that, matters ave improved in Beta 3 - but there is no information in the Release Notes!!

It is still dumb wrt giving me a multi-version when I switch the book being serached e.g. Search ESV and select ESV, NRSV --> it is smart enough not to display ESV a second time, but dumb enough to display ESV only when I switch the Search to SBLGNT!

Over time, we intend to improve the behavior in all places where multiple resources need to be selected, but we have to start somewhere. Do you think it would be better to have waited until we had the resources to do it everywhere?

I'm not able to reproduce this. Could you upload a screenshot with the multi-selection picker open?

There is nothing wrong with the multi-book selector in v28 except its placement. I would rather you spent resources on issues that are not broken and I would rather not spend my time diagnosing (and commenting) on a poor implementation, considering it was "ported" from the web app. You really need to make the button have two functions like the v28 implementation or get rid of the misleading 'picker' arrow and allow two mode of the button.

Beta 3 improved this over Beta 2, and another bug report.

She is most likely talking about everytime you open the Bible, there are 6 different bible versions open at one time and i cannot turn them all off except for 1.
