Search Panel Options

You can control the behavior and appearance of your search by using a combination of modifiers at the top right corner of the Search Panel itself and options within the panel's More Actions Menu.

 

Search Panel Modifiers

There are three modifiers on the Search Panel itself:

Note: The following search modes do not offer Search Panel modifiers: All, Factbook, Factbook Tags, Bookstore, Clause, and Syntax Searches, as well as Smart AI Assistant icon Book and Smart AI Assistant icon Bible Searches

  • Match Case @Mention icon: Makes your search case-sensitive, requiring search results to match the capitalization of your search query.
  • Match All Word Forms A icon: Includes results of all forms of your search term in the search results. For example, results for a search for love would include loved, lovely, loving, etc.
  • Match equivalent references: There are three options for this:
    Match Equivalent Reference Options
    • Narrow A icon will only use exactly what you specify in your search term.
    • Default A icon will include results where different datatypes have values of the same name. For example, in a Narrow Bible search, searches for event:Creation or topic:Creation yield different results. Selecting Default combines the results of these searches. And, for another example, a Narrow Bible search for a verse will return all cross-references to that verse while a Default Bible search will return those results and the actual verse itself.
    • Broad A icon adds additional terms with related values such as thing:Animal.

Several options are displayed, grouped by type:

 

Text Size Slider

Change the default text size within the Search Panel by dragging the slider.

 

Link Sets

Link a Search Panel to any link set and any clicked word in a resource with the same link set will automatically run a search in your Search Panel. For instance, you can link a Search Panel and a Bible with reverse-interlinear functionality (e.g., ESV). As you click words or phrases in the Bible, the Search Panel will conduct searches for your currently displayed search tab.

To clear the current link set, select None or select Clear All Links to remove all links from the panel.

Note: Learn more about using link sets in Logos.

 

Perform any new searches (e.g. from the Context Menu) in the current tab of the Search Panel, instead of opening a new tab for each search.

 

Print/Export

Open the Print/Export dialog. You can also access this option with a keyboard shortcut: Cmd+P (Mac) or Ctrl+P (Windows).

 

Save As...

In applicable search modes, save search results as a Passage List, Visual Filter, or Word List.

 

Enter Full Screen

Toggle full-screen view on and off. You can also access the full-screen view with a keyboard shortcut: Opt+Cmd+R (Mac) or F11 (Windows).

 

General Panel Options

  • Duplicate This Panel: Create a copy of the panel in a new tab. You can also duplicate panels with a keyboard shortcut: Shift+Cmd+N (Mac) or Ctrl+Shift+N (Windows).
  • Float This Panel: Move the panel to a floating window. (Dock This Panel returns the panel to the main Logos window.) You can also float panels with a keyboard shortcut: Opt+Cmd+F (Mac) or F11 (Windows)

 

Copy Location

Generate a link that opens Verbum Bible Software directly to that location, without requiring an Internet connection. This may not work in some applications.

 

Note: You can use a keyboard shortcut to copy a link to your clipboard: Opt+Cmd+C (Mac) or Ctrl+Alt+C (Windows). Your most recently used link type will be added to your system clipboard. Learn more about creating links in Verbum.
