If you often don't use certain sections, or you aren't satisfied with the default *Settings* in a section, then you should consider creating a /Custom Guide/. Conversely, if you frequently *Add* sections or reposition sections, it is likely that you need a custom guide.
Although the standard guides can be customised without restriction, it is still possible to create a /Custom Guide/. In the Guides menu, click *New* at the bottom, then *Make a new Guide*:
From the panel menu of your open guide, click *Edit Guide Template*, give it a new name, and make your changes.

/Kind/ allows for all word-based and scripture-based guides, and the editor will restrict the available sections accordingly. The Passage Guide and Exegetical Guide could share the same sections, so you could have a guide that both studies the passage and the words in the passage.
Once you have created a custom guide it is saved under *Custom Guides* in the Guides menu. If you right-click that guide and select *Edit*, you can change its name as well as make other changes.
Custom guides appear in the right-click Context menu.

Once you have created a custom guide it is shown in the Guides menu. And if you prefix the name with "My" e.g. _My Passage Guide_, Logos recognizes the name and uses it from the Home Page when you enter a word or scripture reference in the /Go/ box. The guide also appears in the right-click Context menu.
