Sometimes you know parts but haven't put together the whole. That happened to me today.
I knew that I could link reports to the active Bible text window.
I knew that I could run a Compare Parallel Bible Versions report to highlight the differences between editions.
I didn't realize that I could link the active window to the report ... so when I scroll in my Bible, the comparison scrolls along. Now that is cool. Here's a video to show you how it works.
Did you notice how I just typed version abbreviations, separated by commas, in the compare report window? Pretty cool, huh? And if you think that's cool ... poke around other reports and see which ones have a link icon. Link up, and see what happens!
Good morning, Rick!
"It WILL help me in [my] study"! Over the last few days I've been distractedly wishing for just such a feature. ("[D]istractedly" because it didn't occur to me to email a request to suggest@logos.com
A blessed Holy Week and Easter to you and all your readers,

Really cool! Thanks. Just some features I wish that you'd put into the Bible Comparison now.
1.) The ability to customize the red / blue. Frankly, the blue is hard for my poor eyes to see, and the red ends up highlighting. It takes tremendous concentration for me to focus into the blue. Had I the ability to choose, I'd be using a strikeout font through the red stuff and a less darkening color for the new text.
2.) Ideally, you should be able to distinguish amongst three classes of text in any given place: text that is the same, text that is added, text that is removed. Thus distinguished, it would be nice if, as an option, I could say "Only show Added Text" or "Only show removed text" or any combination of those three...
Thanks, I was able to use this in my class, I am a seminary student, and in my Prophets & Writings class it helps to compare several versions quickly and I don't have to click on tabs all of the time.
