Λύχνις Δαν Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Hi ya, Acc 12.0.1 Mac 10.11.6 I imported a translation of Psa. 50 (OG numbering) from the LXX a friend of mine wanted me to look at. I added Psa 1:1 -> 50:1 and added his translation as 51 and used KJV numbering. Imported just fine. Then I pulled it up in parallel with KJV and it was way off - there was no text in the parallel pane just -- on each line. I built a test import with the same structure and got the same result. I then just searched for Psa and the problem became apparent. The empty chapters *:1 were pairing up with verse numbers not just with ch:1 verses. Thus by about the end of Psa 5 we ran out of text in the UB. See this image : I've attached my UB source text so you have a test case.

EricC Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Daniel, I think in another thread somewhere I mentioned this. I do wish this sort of thing would be fixed by Accordance. What I did was asked a friend to make a macro for me (I wasn't able to myself) that adds all empty verses in to the pre-import file with three underlines as the verse text. Then Accordance does a better job of showing it in parallel with "in house" Bible texts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Λύχνις Δαν Posted December 2, 2016 Author Share Posted December 2, 2016 Thanx Eric. I could do the macro thing but given the short stretch of text in this case I can simply use separate tabs. A few things could be cleaned up here and make the whole process a bit easier, like the need to have empty chapters. It would be nice to get rid of that requirement too.

Λύχνις Δαν Posted December 3, 2016 Author Share Posted December 3, 2016 Incidentally I pulled the same UB over to Windows and there is parallels properly. So this is a Mac Acc bug somewhere. Thx D 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
