Hi, just playing with INFER today in Acc 11.01

 

main tab - LXX rahlf’s with [RANGE Ezek 40-48]

dupe tab with GNT28-T [RANGE REV 21-22] [iNFER 6 LXX Rahlfs Tagged]

INFER completes fine

 

then select the verse reference and do “search back linked text"

It opens the first tab with the text in question but fails to do the reverse infer (no tab appears)

 

from the help

"

  1. On the Amplify menu, choose Search Back. Two more tabs are opened (or recycled).
  2. The third tab contains the text of the second tab with the selected reference.
  3. The fourth tab uses the source text with the argument: [INFER 6 third tabname] <AND> [CONTENTS source tabname].
  4. The INFER settings are the same as those in the second tab."

So the third tab appears but the fourth tab doesn’t.

 

PLUS - in the help, the reference is to “Search Back” - see bold above - but in the menus it’s “Search back linked text"

 

 

Related to this is that if you select the phrase and do a search back linked text it always reverts to a FUZZy search, no shift is required.

 

So from the help

"

  1. Select text in a tab with a search command linking to a source tab.
  2. On the Amplify menu choose Search Back.
    A third tab opens, which is a duplicate of the source tab (or an appropriate tab is recycled) with the following argument in the Search Entry box: selected phrase <AND> [CONTENTS source tabname].

Press Shift while clicking Search Back to add an automatic FUZZY command to the phrase; this finds phrases including words that are not from the source text."

I get the 4th tab if I reverse the Infer and Range commands (put Infer first).

No it doesn’t Helen, but it does work if the command order is reversed as per Jonathan’s suggestion.

 

Methinks that may be inconsistent.

This is still an inconsistency in 11.02

Can someone point me to how this tool is used? I can't find any documentation on it and I'm non-plussed at this point.

There are podcasts on the Search commands, and there is documentation in the Help files (Biblical Research and Analyses > Search Criteria > Search Commands > Search Commands).

 

Just a sample from the Topic Index of Podcasts.
