Known Issues

Corresponding Words (Logos Now)

In order to fix an issue with resource display and column settings, we had to revert the fix for Corresponding Words visual filter moving the text wrapping on hover in some cases. (Thread) We are working on a solution that will fix both of these issues for a future release.

As a workaround for Corresponding Words, checking the option “Update on click” in the Visual Filter menu will prevent the selected word from shifting unexpectedly.

Logos 6.6

Logos Now

Items in this section are available with a Logos Now subscription. Improvements and bug fixes listed further down are freely available to all users.

Concordance

Changed the refinements for Lemma and Root to use inclusive facets, displayed with checkboxes.

The list doesn’t change when a refinement is applied, and you can select multiple checkboxes to include desired results.
Added all morph fields as refinements to lemma and root concordances. Note this requires a concordance schema change, so concordances will be regenerated.

Breadcrumbs are now cleared when changing passages. (Thread.)
Fixed bug that caused some morph fields to be duplicated when the resource has multiple languages. For example in ESV, “Masculine” would show up twice, once for Greek and once for Hebrew/Aramaic.

Corresponding Words Visual Filter

A new Visual Filter that highlights all instances of a word on hover. This is useful for quickly picking out repeated vocabulary (and other word info factors) in all open resources.

Added support for the “Surface”, “Lemma”, “Root” and “Update on click” options.
With the visual filter enabled, hovering over a word highlights it and all words with all of the same specified properties.
If the “Corresponding words” is enabled on other panels in the current layout, the words are also highlighted in those panels, if visible.
New filter is off by default

Courses Tool

The Courses Tool integrates all of your mobile ed courses, allowing you to read and watch the course material in one combined panel.

You can easily swap between your courses via the “Courses” dropdown menu in the resource panel.
The course material is in a scrollable section in the lower part of the panel, and the corresponding video for the section will be in the top panel.
The Courses Tool automatically syncs the location of the video to the resource. Changing chapters will begin loading the next video. Videos do not automatically play.

Added corresponding resource information for courseware resources in About Support Info section.
Fixed the filtering in Courses dropdown menu to order by course number. (Thread.)
Added support for Visual Filters and Inline Search to the Courses tool.
Added a text size slider to the panel menu for Courses.

Known Issue: The slider currently does not increase video size on Mac, and incorrectly scales media player controls on Windows. There is a case for these issues.

Multiple Resources

Added the Multiple Resources button to the resource panel, allowing you to create your own customized polyglot bibles in one panel.

Click the Multiple Resource button (looks like ||| ) to open the dropdown menu. This includes a filter box to search for desired resources.
Clicking the checkbox next to a resource will add it to the panel.
Multiple resources can be toggled on/off while maintaining selections by checking the “Show multiple resources:” button at the top of the menu.
The initial resource is considered the “host”. Certain functions will only be performed on the host, regardless of additional bibles added:
- Each resource has its own scrollbar, but only the host resource will navigate the other added resources.
- Print/Export will only be performed on the host resource.
- Ctrl/Cmd+F will only be performed on the host resource.
- The Resource Information panel will only display information on the host resource.

Guest resources added to a host now share visual filters enabled on the host.
Added Cmd+Shift+M (for Mac) and Ctrl-Shift-M (for Windows) as keyboard shortcuts to toggle Multiple Resources on/off.
Filters entered in the Multiple Resource dropdown will now promote exact matches to the top of the list as elsewhere in the app.
Guest resources now share the Inline Interlinear settings of the Host resource.

Septuagint Manuscript Explorer

The Septuagint Manuscript Explorer is an interactive that allows you to explore all sorts of data about manuscripts of the Septuagint.

The interactive gathers information about various manuscripts used in the creation of the LXX Septuagint, including Language, Date, Contents, Rahlfs Group, and Holding Institutions.
See the About panel in the interactive for more detailed documentation on contents and scope.
