Enoch Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 I just was looking at πρεσβύτερος, in BDAG. When I clicked on the gear icon and then paragraph view, the article disappeared except for the single entry word πρεσβύτερος. I have experienced successful use of paragraph view on another word I looked up a day or two ago. It made the lexicon more readable. (I commend you for that). I do use back background with green letters as default. This may be another of the black font on black background issues. I haven't checked that yet. Thanks for your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Λύχνις Δαν Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 I can repro. this. I had always thought this mode was intended to show just the first paragraph as that was how I commonly saw it work - and that's what happens in this case. αγαπη by contrast has a larger initial para. so you get more info. I'd be interested to know how its supposed to work. I use article myself. I guess I 'd assumed that paragraph gave you a short form listing form scanning results but I cannot find any explanation of it in the doc so I'd love to hear what its really for.

Julia Falling Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 If you want the whole πρεσβύτερος entry, use Show Text As > Articles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel Brown Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Paragraph shows just the paragraphs that have a hit from your search. In this case, the first line of the article is a separate paragraph from the sub sections, so only that first line (paragraph) is shown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Λύχνις Δαν Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Makes sense - Show Text As is then the search result context for tools. Thx D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel Brown Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Exactly right! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enoch Posted June 9, 2014 Author Share Posted June 9, 2014 Do I get a stuffed toy ? Send me your address. What animal do you want? Your help has been excellent. Maybe a tiger is what you should be for your reward. I am disappointed. I thought that Accordance had unclogged BDAG, making it readable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Λύχνις Δαν Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Thanx Enoch but in this case I cannot take the credit. Joel had the real answer. As to unclogging BDAG it sounds like you want something like text display options like, "paragraphs with space" but I don't believe this exists for Tools, although your enhancement request looks to add more whitespace than perhaps that would do.

Thx D What is white space to a computer? It would take an incredible amount of white space to bring a computer to its knees. it doesn't require murdering trees.

Λύχνις Δαν Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Yep - almost nothing - but I wasn't worried about that but about how close to hand a solution might already lie. But looking again at your enhancement I see also that your color coded version is a much more extensive change. Like you say a new module.
