EricInSeattle Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 I've just bought Accordance and find it much easier to use than the previous programs I have been using (BW and BS). There are a couple simple changes to the iOS app, though, that I would like to suggest. 1. On the iOS version, when two windows are open, four lines are taken up with the Bible name and the book name in the two headers, for example: GNT28-T Matt. 1:3 ESV with Strong's Matt. 1:3 Why not put the Bible name and the book name on the same line, one to the left and one to the right, as follows: GNT28-T Matt. 1:3 ESV with Strong's Matt. 1:3 Real estate is so precious on an iPhone! 2. Syncing verses in two windows is a little awkward, because the top of the leading verse has to be dragged all the way up to the header panel in order for the follower verse in the second window to move up. What makes this awkward is that the edge of the header panel is not visible, the background color of the header panel being identical to the background color of the text panel. How about making the header panel's background always darker? Maybe even black, with white text? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One reason it is currently two lines is for displaying search result information. re: 2 - I'm not sure what can be done here to increase the threshold for advancing the verse, but I have noticed it as well. I assumed it was just "the way it is" so to speak. But I will forward it on for review. Thanks for the feedback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timothy Jenney Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 I'd like to see #2 adopted for both the desktop and iOS. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bret Hicks Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 I would like to see #1 adopted for the iPhone at least. It would really save a lot of screen real estate on a very limited screen. In Christ, Bret Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Francis Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 I just want 2.0 before I start making suggestions and changes... I know last word was it was close to entering Beta and there is no point offering false hoping with dates that may vanish as bugs pop up.... -Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricInSeattle Posted February 23, 2015 Author Share Posted February 23, 2015 It seems to me that #2 (darker header window) is already implemented in the desktop version--at least for the Workspace windows on Accordance for Mac OS X. That is, there is a clear visual distinction between the text window and the header window that allows one to drag the text all the way up to the edge and trigger the sync.

Ken Simpson Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 #2 has always been an annoyance to me. Would love to see it addressed somehow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
