Getting to Know Logos

Luckily, Logos will explain your screen in text and voice at any time. Just press F9, or choose Explain the screen from the Help menu and press the Right Arrow key. Nevertheless, this table is included to define terms used throughout the training.

Getting to Know the Logos Home Page

This is Logos default startup screen, full of information and news. If you do not find it useful, you can choose to automatically open any saved layout (or your previous open resources) by default at Tools>Program Settings>General>At Startup Open to. LogosHome.png

  1. Home: This button switches between the home page and any open resources.
  2. Library: Click here to choose and open a new resource.

  10. Configure Home Page: Use this to configure the Banner and home page.

Getting to Know a Resource Tile

Each Resource you open will show up in a Tile. Tiles may have multiple overlapping Tabs. The image below shows the parts of a tile, and items noted in red may not appear in every resource. LogosTileAll.png

  1. Book Cover or Panel Menu: This resource will be called the Book Cover in this training, as it usually contains an image of the current book. Click here to access many options for the current resource, such as text-size.
  2. Reference Bar (Optional): This text box allows you to jump to a new location in the reference. Type in an appropriate location, such as Book and Verse (i.e. Mat 5:3, Revelation 2:2) in Bibles and Commentaries or the word to search in a Dictionary.
  3. Visual Filters: This menu allows you to see custom highlights that you create, or other notations from the internet.
  4. Parallel Resources (Optional): If appropriate, you can see other resources that are similar. This means that clicking Parallel resources in a Bible will suggest other Bibles.
  5. Display (Optional): Some Bibles (LEB, NIV, etc.) have Interlinear notations that can be shown. Clicking the Display Button allows one to select rows of the interlinear to show throughout the text. If this makes your text difficult to read, try the Interlinear Button Instead.
  6. Interlinear Button (Optional): Some Bibles (LEB, NIV, etc.) have Interlinear information that can be shown. The Interlinear Button allows you to view one line of interlinear at a time in a small window called the Interlinear Pane.

  12. Navigation Bar (Optional): Based on your choice of Article, Book, or Verse, these buttons allow you to jump forward or backward to the next section or paragraph. To view this bar, choose Show locator bar from the Book Cover menu.
  13. Interlinear Pane (Optional): Some Bibles (LEB, NIV, etc.) have Interlinear information that can be shown. This Pane is the result of clicking the Interlinear Button, and can be customized by clicking in the first column and choosing rows to view.
  • Red Items are optional, and may not appear on every window.

Opening Resources

To open a resource, click the Library Icon, that looks like an open book Library Icon.png . Start typing the name or abbreviation of the resource (i.e. NIV or New International) and your results will be filtered. When you find the resource you want, just click the title of Book icon, and it will open in a new tab.

Creating Shortcuts to Common Resources

If there is a resource that you use often, you can create a link to it in your Links Toolbar. 1. Click any tab and drag it up to the Links Toolbar That's it! Next time you want to open that resource, just click the book cover shortcut you just created.

Closing Resources

To close a resource, click on the Tab for that resource to select it, then click the X that appears. If you want to close a whole group of tabs in a Tile, right-click on a tab and choose "Close all tabs".

Navigating a resource is depends on what the resource is. Please read through the different categories.

If you open up a Bible or Commentary, you can choose a verse, go to the next chapter, or jump for another book and chapter entirely. To jump to a specific reference, the easiest way is to type the reference in the bar at the top of the resource. Type Rev 5:3 for example, or Rev 5. You will see below that the text changes to "Go to Revelation 5:3", which means that the reference was recognized. If you have changed the interface language to, for example, French, then you must type the book title in that language (i.e. Apocalypse). If you do not see the Locator Bar as below with your current location, click the book icon, and choose Show locator bar.  Once open, you can use this bar to jump around. As you can see, Chapter is selected at the right, so the up and down arrows will jump to the the previous and next chapters, respectively. Verse and Book are also available. Based on your choice, you can use Alt Down and Alt Up to jump chapters, verses or books. Locator Bar.png To browse the Table of Contents of any resource, click the >> icon on the locator bar or choose Show Table of Contents after clicking on the book cover. You can now browse the headings and select the portion you want to read.

Non-Bible books are not often arranged by verses, but by Chapters and Articles. Use these selections if you would like to jump forward or backward in these resources. Note: if the resource does not have specific articles, Logos will just jump to the next paragraph. To browse the Table of Contents of any resource, click the >> icon on the locator bar or choose Show Table of Contents after clicking on the book cover. You can now browse the headings and select the portion you want to read.

Dictionaries have both a navigation bar, as the others, and a search box. By typing a word into the search box and pressing enter, you can jump directly to that word in the dictionary. To browse the Table of Contents of any resource, click the >> icon on the locator bar or choose Show Table of Contents after clicking on the book cover. You can now browse the headings and select the portion you want to read.

Prioritize Resources

You know what resources you use most. You have a favorite dictionary, bibles, bible dictionaries, and commentaries, and you want those resources to appear near the top of the list when you do searches. This video will show you how to do it. I recommend prioritizing at least 5 Bibles, 3 Commentaries, and a Dictionary. For many things to work in Logos, you must choose at least one Bible, this is reffered to as your Default Bible. Watch this Video: Prioritizing Resources by Logos This video will be summarized here later.

Find Information

The power of Logos is in searching. This section touches on general tips for each search, but the reality is that each search is unique and based on a specific need.

You may choose to watch the following video or follow these instructions. Basic Searching by Logos

Overview:

To do a basic search, simply click the Magnifying Glass icon Search.png . This will open up a new Search tab.  We are doing a general search here, so we will choose Basic from the choices in the top-right corner. Next we need to tell Logos what resources to search. We'll leave All Text for now, and choose Entire Library. Notice that there are hints in this window on how to search for specific information. Type faith in the white Find box, and press Enter.  Immediately, search results will start to appear, grouped by resource.  If Ranked is selected in the window, you will see your prioritized resources sorted first if they contain the term. You can also sort By Count to find out which resources mention your term the most. Note: The next time you search, you can either re-use the window you have, or click Search.png again to open a new search tab.

Logos can generate a concordance search of any Bible or multiple Bibles on demand.  We'll start with an easy one. You may choose to watch this video or follow the instructions below. Bible Searches by Logos To do a Bible search, simply click the Magnifying Glass icon Search.png . This will open up a new Search tab.  We are doing a Bible search here, so we will choose BIble from the choices in the top-right corner. The blue text in this window contains drop-down choices. We will leave Search and All Bible Text for now, and choose Old Testament from the In menu. This time, we will choose NASB from the final drop-down menu.  You can type NASB to search in the Box as below, then click "New American Standard Bible" to select it. SearchBibles.png Type faith in the search box and press Enter. You will see Logos building a concordance for this word in the NASB. Click any verse number to jump to that verse.  From the blue links in the top of this window, click Verses, Aligned, or Analysis to see the results in different ways. If you had chosen to search several Bibles (i.e. your top 5 Bibles), Grid would allow you to see which Bibles contained your search term in each verse.

Lastly, you should know that you can change the way Logos searches. As described in the search help, you can search for multiple words or phrases.

  • Searching faith hope love would find any verse that contained all 3 words.
  • Searching faith, hope, love would find verses that contain one or more of those words.
  • Searching "faithful love" (with the quotes) will find only results where these words appear side by side and in this order.

In English, you can turn on Match all word forms from the menu shown below, and searching for insert also retrieves search results for inserted, inserting, or inserts. This can be a very handy feature, but it does not seem to be available in other languages. SearchCustom.png

Guides

In Logos, you don't have to know that a specific resource exists in your library to find useful and relevant information. You can have Logos easily search your entire library, or just a relevant portion, for information on a specific passage, word, person, or topic using Guides.

Managing the Guides

  • Each Guide has different headings (i.e. Commentaries) that can be be expanded or hidden by clicking on the black triangle next to each heading. If the triangle and title are grey, then there are no available resources of that type for this passage.
  • You can rearrange the headings to move the useful ones to the top.
  • Individual resources that you prefer can be moved to the top when they contain relevant information, see Prioritizing Resources.

Passage Guide

Imagine you were reading a passage, and that a mighty wind blew through your library. Every book containing information on that passage opened to the correct page, and they were arranged on your desk by your preference. That's kind of like using the Passage Guide in Logos. I recommend keeping either the Passage Guide or Exegetical Guide open whenever you use Logos. Passage.png To Get started with the passage guide, you can watch this introductory video: Passage Guide at Logos.com.

Exegetical Guide

Much like the Passage Guide, the Exegetical Guide researches your dictionaries and grammatical resources for information relevant to each word in the current passage. Notice below how there are links to each greek word in several dictionaries. Click on the blue links in the Exegetical Guide if you want more to continue reading in each resource. Hint: If you want the passage guide to continually show the relevant verse, Set the scroll group (i.e. A) to match on the Exegetical Guide and Bible by clicking each Book Cover and choosing the "A" Link Set.
