Logos 6.0b

The fix for download issues users were experiencing with Mac 10.10 Yosemite has been enabled by default in 6.0b, and no longer requires the Terminal command required in 6.0a.

Performance

Greatly improved the performance of scrolling in Library Grid/Details view on Windows. (Thread)
Reduced memory usage of Reading Plan visual filter.

Features

Atlas

Find via Ctrl/Cmd+F has been implemented, with orange visual cues and place markers indicating locations matching the search.

  • Opening Atlas from a Factbook link for a place will also indicate that location upon loading.
  • These cues also apply when filtering in the “Place, Person, Event or Map” navigation box.

Bible Word Study

Hovering over the type headings in Clause Participants section “Semantic Roles” view will show a hover tip with a quick definition of the term.

  • For example hovering over the Agent datatype in “With Agent...” will have a hover tip with a definition for it.

Clippings

Added spell-checking for notes in Clippings. (Thread and Thread.)

Factbook

Bible Book Guides will now appear when the Bible reference is entered. No longer requires specific ‘First Epistle to’ or ‘Gospel of’ to choose Biblical Book Guides. (Thread, Thread and Thread.)
The dates listed in Biographies can now be clicked to open Timeline filtered to that date range (e.g. 1834-1892 for Spurgeon’s bio).

Guides

Guides now use the new Autocompleter, which had been implemented elsewhere such as in Search and Factbook. This will provide more information when suggesting entries, and fix problems where results weren’t sorted correctly.

Information

Showing the Information for a text range with Labels applied to a highlighting style will now list that label data in the Info panel.

  • This can be controlled with the “Show highlighting information” setting under Other.

The settings for the Information panel which only had one option behind the tab have been consolidated into an “Other” tab. These options are:

  • Highlighting information
  • Alternate translations
  • Supplemental data
  • Biblical referents
  • Other references (Bible refs, Louw-Nida numbers, genre and source tags, etc)

Library

Added the “Read” column to the Library, which indicates Unread, Reading, and Finished status.

  • Unread resources will be indicated by the absence of an icon.
  • Reading resources will have a ring graph, which fills in based on reading progress.
  • The column is sortable, which groups resources into “Unread”, “Reading”, and “Finished” groups and then sorts within the group from 0-100, or 100-0 depending on choice of Ascending/Descending.

Passage Guide

The Music section of Passage Guides will now display non-media Hymnals. For an example, run a Passage Guide on Psalm 33:12.
