Ron Bailey Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 (edited) I have recently installed the Mounce Exhaustive Dictionary (MED) module. It is based on Mounce's own G numbers although Strongs numbers are included. However I cannot seem to integrate the MED into my Accordance Workspace. I enclose a screen capture. I want to be able to click the word 'powerless' in the Mounce NT and see the response in the MED in the right hand Zone. Is this possible? I also want to be able to click the corresponding word in the NKJV and see the response in the Liddell & Scott in the right hand zone. Is this possible or am I being over ambitious? Thank you for any help. Yours Ron Bailey Edited April 2, 2019 by Ron Bailey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helen Brown Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 In Preferences: Amplify you can set the preferred Greek lexicon, and the lexicon for the key number texts, but I am not sure if you can choose Liddell & Scott for the latter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Bailey Posted April 2, 2019 Author Share Posted April 2, 2019 Wow, Service!! Thank you Helen. I seem to be able to set up the instant display in this way but what i wanted to do was to link my Mounce Greek NT pain with the Mounce Exhaustive Dictionary. Is that a different set up?

Helen Brown Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 The Triple-click should go to the same tool as the Instant Details, but there is no setting that allows each text to have its own specific lexicon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Bailey Posted April 3, 2019 Author Share Posted April 3, 2019 So am I right in thinking there is no real integration between Mounce's Exhaustive Dictionary and tagged texts and that the MED is essentially a stand-alone resource? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Allison Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 The problem (if I'm understanding you correctly) is that MED is an English tool, and not a Greek or Hebrew tool. If it was solely Greek or Hebrew, then you could choose it as a default lexicon, but as an English dictionary, this option isn't available. Since you're on a Mac, you may want to try adding MED to your Toolbar. Then, whenever you select a Greek or Hebrew word, simply click on MED in your toolbar and it will display the correct entry. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Bennett Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 Mark is correct. You cannot amplify directly from a Greek, Hebrew, or Key Number text to MED since it is an English Tool (organized primarily by English word order). The Greek and Hebrew Dictionaries included at the end of the resource are essentially the same as the Mounce Greek and KM Hebrew Dictionaries already available in Accordance. In addition, Mounce Greek and KM Hebrew have links to MED entries. They are designed to work together, and I highly recommend owning MED for this reason. My recommended workflow is to start from your text of choice, amplify to Mounce Greek or KM Hebrew, and then look for the links to MED as available to further research the use of that word(s) across the Bible. Here's an example from Phil 1.1 ("servant"): The problem (if I'm understanding you correctly) is that MED is an English tool, and not a Greek or Hebrew tool. If it was solely Greek or Hebrew, then you could choose it as a default lexicon, but as an English dictionary, this option isn't available. Since you're on a Mac, you may want to try adding MED to your Toolbar. Then, whenever you select a Greek or Hebrew word, simply click on MED in your toolbar and it will display the correct entry. That's a good suggestion, too! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
