N-A 27: Customizable Sigla?


Matthew Burgess

Recommended Posts

I'm very grateful to Accordance for the recently released version of the Nestle-Aland Novum Testamentum Graece that incorporates the critical sigla. The combination of the tagged text and the sigla is great, and the ability to view the apparatus in the Instant Details window simply by hovering over a particular sign is an outstanding feature. And now that I've gotten the compliments out of the way, I have a request: would it be possible to change the colors of the sigla in future versions (similar to the way in which some Bibles can display the words of Jesus in red)? As my first Greek teacher observed, one of the interesting aspects of the sigla is that they're designed to blend into the text so that you can read continuously if you're not interested in each variant. The ability to change their appearance would allow the reader to highlight the catalogued variants in a particular verse or passage, if he or she chose to do so.

 

As always, thanks for all of your hard work in producing such an incredible product!

The options for customozing the text display are already so complex they overwhelm many users. We will be revamping this in the future, so maybe we can add a further option just for sigla and other superscripts, but it will take quite a bit of work. However, we won't do it unless there is interest in such a feature.
