    FR: fly-out Reading Schedule panel via Widget or similar

    Although I had previously started to use the Reading Schedule in SwordSearcher, I never stuck with that electronic (computer) method of documenting my Bible reading. I don't recall now why, but maybe it was because of what I found inconvenient with the Reading Schedule panel. Right now I'm over...

    Forum times are wonky on my computer

    It is approx. 12:53 PM Eastern Time in the USA as I write this. I added my “3:51” comment this moring at about 6:51 AM (morning) my time. These times (e.g. 3:51 have not even been lived by me yet! Only by God’s grace will I get there. But this forum software says I’ve been there. Hmm. EDIT: The...

    Commentary that sends links to all its Bible references to the Bible margin

    I have a commentary module in which I write my own notes on the Scripture on a per-verse basis. Because it is a SwordSearcher commentary module and not a SwordSearcher book module, the only links to my user commentary that show up in the margin when reading the Bible are the links to the one...

    How to search and eliminate several similar words?

    I'm putting this conversation between Brandon and me here in the forums so I can find it in the future. :) Note that according to White's Dictionary of the King James Language, Volume One (p. 122), "'Donkey' is a modern name for the ass, first used in A.D. 1785.") Eric: Brandon:

    English-Strong's Indexer: cursor focus automatically to search field

    I would find it helpful if every time I go to the ESI panel the focus would automatically be such that my cursor is in the search field. It is there if it has been closed and is re-opened. But if the panel is left up (behind others, in my case behind my custom layout of panels), when I make it...

    FR: "Scan Text for Verse References": prevent "i.e." being interpreted as a verse number

    Often I need to edit the text pasted into the Scan Text for Verse References tool (Alt-F5) to prevent the "i" in "i.e." from being included in verse numbers. It'd be nice if I did not need to do that. Here is an example. The text pasted in is the results from the English-Strong's Indexer's...

    FR: search within English-Strong's Indexer

    This may already be there, but I can't find a way to search the English-Strong's Indexer panel (pop-up). I tried Ctrl-F, right clicking the mouse for a context menu, and I then tried the "Edit" menu. I would find this useful. Sometimes the hits in the E-S Indexer seem enigmatic to me: I guess...

    FR: dedicated location for margin links pop-up

    Perhaps some discussion on this will show that no new feature is needed, but that rather I need to change something I'm doing. So here is my preliminary explanation and desire: I use the margin links very frequently: almost always. The way SwordSearcher's margin links work, if there is only one...

    Keyboard shortcut: move to next hit in module linked in margin

    I think I've forgotten this, since I'm pretty sure I used to know how to do it. Next to a verse there is margin link to a module, and in that module (actually chapter of a module) several times the verse is mentioned. How do I move from one hit to the next? I looked in the keyboard shortcuts...

    Find all instances where the Greek word εν is translated in the KJV as "by"

    Goal: find all instances where the Greek word εν is translated in the KJV as "by". When I use the English-Strong's Indexer (ESI) by means of Search > English-Strong's Indexer (or Ctrl-F2) to find all the Greek words translated as "by" in the KJV, I scroll down to εν (Strong's Greek #1722). The...

    Pls recommend tablet for elderly use

    Hi, everybody, (Background: I have no experience with tablets on any platform. I use SwordSearcher on a Mac via VirtualBox.) I would love recommendations for a tablet that will run the full version of Windows. I think my elderly mother would benefit from the Bible reading audio. The tablet...

    How to find a word and punctuation

    I have a Greek language user Bible module that includes the diacritical marks (which are not present in the TR module that comes with SwordSearcher). I want to search for all verses that have the word ἔλεγον in them and also have a question mark in them (well, the Greek question mark looks like...

    Search vs. English-Strong's indexer

    Hi, Brandon, When I do this search ("sir @g2962" w/o the quotes), I only get one hit: Mt 21:30. But, when I use the English-Strong's indexer, I get a lot more hits where κυριος is translated as "sir" in the KJV. I did the same thing with "master @g2962", and only got 2 hits. But the ESI got...

    Allow module shortcuts to have more than one letter assigned

    Hello, Brandon, I use module shortcuts all the time. I think I might have mentioned this somewhere else, but if it were possible to assign multiple letters to a module, that would really free up some shortcuts. E.g., I'd love to make the shortcut to the TR module be "Ctrl-TR" or "Ctrl-Alt-TR"...

    Keyboard shortcut for "Send Book (or "Commentary") Link to Editor"

    Feature Request for Brandon: I use this function all the time. Since I try to use the keyboard and not the mouse very much, a keyboard shortcut would be helpful. The one I use most is "Send Book Link to Editor".

    Search for two words in a certain order, but not next to each other

    I hope I haven't asked this before :) In the TR module I want to search for the Greek words και and δε in that order, but not when they are contiguous (which they never are). I know I can search "for verses with ALL of the words specified", but that gives 1431 vv., and they are mostly false...

    Timeline

    Hi, Brandon, I searched in the forums for something on Bible timelines, but I don't see that it's been brought up as a possible future feature. I realize it would be a major undertaking, but … I would love to be able to have a Bible timeline that would have pre-made "layers" with the research...

    Can I put a PDF into a user book?

    Can I put a PDF into a user book? I just searched the forums, but didn't find anything that answered my question? If so how can I do this? Will the text in the PDF be searchable in SwordSearcher (if it's made from a program like Word and saved to PDF, or if it's been OCR'd)? Does it just link...

    Can hyperlinks to SS verses be added to user module information & work?

    I haven't tried this, so I'm just asking up front: Is it possible to use links like this <a href="swordsearcher://bible+kjv/Ge 1.1">Genesis 1:1</a> within the "AuthorDetail" section in the headers of the pre-Forge files so that when one opens up the the Module Information (right click on...

    How to search for certain strings excluding others

    Hi, How do I search, say, the KJV for all instances of the word "for" with a space before it (i.e., " for"), but without a colon before the space? Here's what I tried. I got zero hits using either the RegEx method or the Normal Search with Boolean operators. (Also, here's a verse (1Ch 11:22) in...
