OSchrock Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 How can I run a search that will show me only the verses that differ between two very similar texts, such as the HMT-W4 and BHS-W4 or ETCBC? I need something more than just ticking the "compare" option since the differences are so few. I'm pretty sure I've seen in the past how to do this, but now I cannot find it. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solly Posted July 24, 2018 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Thanks OSchrock for the question and Dr. J for the solution. I now know how to very simply compare two texts. This is a great feature that I did not know about, or had forgotten. Learning something every day, —Joseph 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OSchrock Posted July 26, 2018 Author Share Posted July 26, 2018 Sorry to come back to this, but is there any way to adjust the text comparison to ignore the "Movable Nu" and punctuation marks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel Brown Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 Check out the options in Preferences -> Compare Text. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OSchrock Posted July 26, 2018 Author Share Posted July 26, 2018 Check out the options in Preferences -> Compare Text. Ok, thanks. Switching the compare option from "words" to "lexical form" does seem to clear up the movable nu but seems goes beyond that to other changes as well. That does get the information I needed though, so thank you! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
