Version: 8.6.0.0015

Released: June 06, 2019

 

!!!!! New Features

* Notes Tool

* Improved the detection of the active reference of a resource when creating note anchors.

 * *Known Issue:* There can be a delay between when the active reference is updated in the "Add anchor" dialog.

* Resource Text Selection Menu

* Added a new Resource Text Selection Menu that offers common tasks when text is selected with a mouse:

 * Search

 * Copy

 * Share

 * Look up

 * Study

  * *Known Issue:* The Study command is not correctly formatting lemma data for Bible Word Study when the Prefer Lemma option is selected.

 * Add or remove notes and highlights

 * Copy Bible Verses

* The behavior of these actions is slightly different, depending on the number of words selected, and whether they are Bible or non-Bible text.

* Added a Program Setting to Prefer Lemmas when using Search or Study actions in Selection Menu.

* Shortcuts

* CTRL/CMD+L will now bring focus to an instance of My Library already open. The application will open a new instance in a floating window if My Library is already in focus or not open. [[Thread >> https://community.logos.com/forums/t/176112.aspx]]
