Question - has anyone created a PBB that focuses on Greek Grammar

I am thinking of taking my seminary Summer Greek notes and putting them into a PBB so that the exegetical guide will pick it up.  I am wondering if someone has already done this, and if so, any pointers.

I know that the book can be compiled as a grammar PBB, but I am wondering about the tagging.  (This part of the book is talking about verbs, and this subsection of the book is talking about passive...)  Thanks

    Oh my! I started to years ago when the PBB was heavily used. But it got so dinggled-berry confusing.... There is sooooo muck tag to this to get to there - to get to there and then back to there, oh and don't forget that you need to be able to recover so you not get lost between nuances and tittles and jot's and lions and tigers and bears - oh my! etc., etc.

    Thats all I got, I actually wished I had kept the file now, I know so little and forget what i did not get....[^o)]

    Just checking again to see if anyone knows how this is done.

    Could you explain in a bit more detail exactly how you would want the EG to show links to your PB? That is, would you want it to appear in the Grammars section, or something more?

    (The Grammars section searches resources of type "Grammar" for Bibles references that intersect the reference of the EG, but I don't know for sure if it searches PBs, or just Logos editions; we would have to look into this.)

    Thanks Bradley for responding.

    I was expecting the PB to show up under the grammer section of the EG when I ran a test for it, and it didn't.  When I get home tonight, I will put up some screen prints and a test file.

    It was my understanding that PB will perform the same function as a Logos edition.  So far, this has been true for my PB.  Because I have been able to get my PB to show up with Logos edition books with the exception of this one, I was wondering what I was doing wrong.

    I haven't tested this, but I suspect that the Grammars section searches only the Library index (of Logos editions), and not the PB Index (of your books). If so, that's a bug that we can fix (and that won't require a change to your resource).

    Update: I built a simple grammar and the EG Grammars section displayed it correctly. Just make sure it shows up in the Library for a "type:grammar" search, and that it has correctly-linked Bible references.

    hmmmm, the moon must be in a different location.   I just reran my test EG, and now my PB is there.  (Or I might not have given L4 enough time to index the PB).  Thanks again Bradley for you assistance.
