A. Smith Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 How do you use the new features in your routine? I don't yet have 12 and am wondering the practical gain of these features. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abram K-J Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 I believe that if you register you get access to a download link after the fact, but it doesn't look like there's a recording of the Webinar (it's a newer one) on the public recordings page yet.

Λύχνις Δαν Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Have you seen https://www.accordancebible.com/resources/multimedia/details/?id=156788 ? In the new version I am mostly using Stacks and the support for the ETCBC syntax right now. I find Stacks a convenient way to just jot simple, admittedly soewhat disorganized notes for later followup with a minimum of disruption to the task at hand. So I'm reading Luke in Greek currently and I'll run into something interesting and I just highlight it, add it to the stack annotate it quickly with a note and move on. I can then go back over them later and do the research on the point and any other follow up. I can't say much on ETCBC yet, though I've made a few posts, because I am still getting my head around it. thx D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Voth Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 You might also want to check out the episode with Dr. J looking at Hanukkah making use of stacks for the study. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A. Smith Posted January 12, 2017 Author Share Posted January 12, 2017 Just to be clear, I'm not asking how they might theoretically be used. I'm asking how are you, the actual every day users, utilize them in your workflow. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Hall Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Anthony, I use Stacks every week. Any time I want to copy something that I run across in my sermon prep I simply add it to my sermon stack. I then copy and paste the items from the stack that I want to put into Scrivener (the program I outline my sermons in). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abram K-J Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 One especially useful feature, I think, is the ability to star/favorite an item in a Stack, then sort the Stack by Importance so I can see starred items all at the top--this helps prioritize what to take with me when moving from Stacks to whatever might be next in my workflow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ukfraser Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 (edited) For me, its a game changer as I've not particularly used notes (been with accordance since 8). Instead im always copying and pasting anything useful directly into a word or inDesign file (or iPad equivalent) and doing my sorting at the time of pasting, and editing the file as required. I have my word files organised and can still go back to them, even pre accordance should i need to find something or look to see what was hitting me x years ago. Now i can put paragraphs from text, tools, and other linked passages that look useful directly into stacks and keep them together and re-read and edit later but all within accordance. Still not sure about organizing the stacks, currently i dont have many. Ideal for sermon preparation where i am looking at a set of lectionary readings, or home group where we are looing at a block of text or topic. But also great for just digging deeper and wanting to explore something and collect lots of linked information together, Currently looking at 'shepherds' to see what else there is while reading kenneth bailey's book, 'the good shepherd'. While he is using a passage from 8 books, starting with psalm 23 and ending at 1 peter 5, im collecting notes on other passages, other examples, other translations where his differs, and definitions etc. Quite a hotch potch of thoughts but just being able to search and gather results easily as questions float into my mind or are triggered by something i have read. Stacks are starting to get me back to the mac and away from the ipad. Note, Starting... Edited January 13, 2017 by ukfraser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodney Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Do Stacks accept hyperlinks so I can refer to other resources or web articles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abram K-J Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Do Stacks accept hyperlinks so I can refer to other resources or web articles? No, but that would be a nice addition! The Source info is automatically hyperlinked within Accordance if you add to a Stack from an Accordance module, but not so with external sources.

Ιακοβ Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 At the moment I am using stacks essentially as "bookmarks". i.e. For example, I can use it on titles of journal articles as I read them, so I can go back and say, "What was that journal article I read the other day", or "What was that journal article I read on penal substitution the other week?" I have no idea what papers is, perhaps that podcast can be uploaded somewhere (: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
