Logos User Wiki Logos Release Notes Logos 4 Release Notes

Logos 4.2

What’s New

Column “Paged” View

“Show paged view” panel menu option available to toggle paged mode on or off (or Ctrl+Shift+P). “Show paged view” will display more than one column, depending on the width of the panel (scrollbars removed). Paged mode is also available in Reading View. Click left or right triangle buttons to turn pages. Buttons are at the lower-right corners of resource panels for LTR resources and at lower-left corners for RTL resources.

Library

Added a column that will display the “Last Updated” date for a resource. (Right-click on a column header to view list and select Last Updated.) This column will initially populate with the current date. In the future, whenever a resource file is discovered (new file or new version of an existing file), Last Updated will reflect that new date.

Logos Smart Tags

Added “Passage Guide” to Smart Tag menu.

Syntax Search Document

Added “Import Syntax Searches” and “Import Delete Syntax Searches” commands.

Other New Features

Biblical People/Places/Things
- Information and gallery panes auto hide in Reading View. (Note: If the focus is in the People/Places/Things textbox when reading view is executed, the top panel won’t auto hide until the focus is placed in the body of the panel.)

Collections
- Panel will open to a new blank collection instead of an existing collection. Upon closing the Collections panel, any “Unnamed Collection” with no saved data will be deleted.

Data Types
- Additional abbreviations for Bible data type implemented, including Pro for Proverbs, Mc-Micah, Hb-Habakkuk, Mar-Mark, Joh-John, Act-Acts, Pp-Philippians, Co-Colossians, Ti-Titus, Pm-Philemon, 1P-1 Peter, 2P-2 Peter, 1J-1 John, 2J-2 John, 3J-3 John, Jd-Jude.

Fonts
- Support added for the “Gentium Plus” font recently released by SIL. If this font is installed by user (not installed by default), it will be included on the Greek Font drop-down list in Program Settings. (http://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/page.php?&cat_id=FontDownloadsGentium)

Localization
- The following new fields on the Basic Search > All Text drop-down list are translated into Spanish for the Logos Spanish user interface: Tipo de Libro (Book Type), Aparato textual negativo (Negative Apparatus), Aparato textual positivo (Positive Apparatus), and Unidad variante (Variation Unit).

Notes
- Note content is displayed in grey text next to title when note is collapsed. If content does not fit on one line, an ellipsis will mark the continuation of text. A new line within the text is collapsed to a space.

Prayer List
- Prayer notes content is displayed in grey text next to title when prayer is collapsed. If content does not fit on one line, an ellipsis will mark the continuation of text. A new line within the text is collapsed to a space.

Print/Export
- Added “Send to New document” and “Paste in Open document” to export options.
- Column printing/exporting implemented for resources; added a preference so that resource printing/exporting will remember the last setting for column view (value is shared across all resources). The default is Auto.

Program Settings
- “East Syriac Adiabene” font is now available from the Syriac Font drop-down list.

Syntax Search Document
- A definition pop-up will appear when hovering over a syntax term in the Specifics pane, such as a Clause Type, from the glossary associated with the Syntax resource being searched (if definition is included in glossary). Open the glossary by right-clicking and choosing it from the context menu.

Text Comparison
- Clicking on the label or dot in the Compare Versions section of a Passage Guide, or the Cluster Graph in the Passage Analysis tool will open Text Comparison.

Tools
- Setting the linkset of an auto-follow Tool (Cited By, Explorer, etc.) to “None” will be remembered the next time that tool is opened from the Tools menu.
