right-click. New topics with terms can be added.

the appropriate button.

Menu. The Current Bible book or chapter can be loaded into the

Generator), and .smd for Static Bible Markup.

entry.

word with a 5, 7, 10, and 14 word total span, depending on
window size. Unchecking the button will restore full verse
display.
- Search Results Data can be exported to an Interactive Chart by
clicking the button on the Results Toolbar. The chart will show
a small rectangle for every chapter of the Bible and each
chapter with a search hit will be colored dark red. On mouseover
a popup will display all verses in the chapter with a hit.

book with each rectangle representing a verse.

using the Manage Dialog. Thus an entire Study session can be

Bible references can be linked as in ScripturePad.

in other editors.

data via the MultiWindow.

even if the current or active verse is being changed (by
clicking references, etc.) The Current Notes Reference will be
listed in the Results Panel Caption area.
- The Jump Button (J) in the main Toolbar has been removed.
Nearly the same action can be performed by other methods. If the
user has a Bible, Dct. Cmt. or Results Panel maximized and
clicks on a word or verse, the corresponding Panel (a reference
to the Bible panel; a word to the Dct Panel) will be displayed.
