Sometimes when reading a book, it can be helpful to search within it to find similar phrases, particular morphological forms, or other details. Inline Search enables you to do this in a similar way to the Search tool, allowing you to search the entire contents of your Library and more.
Note
Note:Inline Search options vary depending on the resource you’re searching.

Let's say you want to search your open Bible for instances where grace and love appear together. Simply type your search terms into the search bar and press Enter. Once you have carried out your search, you can use the navigation arrows at the top right corner of the panel to move through the results.
Using the options above, you can customize how the Inline Search works. Below are some examples showing some of them in operation.
You can conduct a search within the Gospels by clicking All Passages and changing the biblical section to Gospels. Display the search results within the paragraph that contains them by clicking Verse and selecting Match within Verse and Group results by Paragraph.
To further specify your search from the search bar itself, try using search operators (see this article for more information).
You can search within chapter boundaries, so that if you specify multiple terms, you will get hits if the terms appear in the same chapter as opposed to just within verse boundaries, as indicated below.
You can select a subset of text within which to carry out the search, such as that with a particular highlight color, by clicking All Bible Text and selecting your desired filters.
You can carry out a Morph Search within the book.
You can specify that you want to enter search terms in an original biblical language and then select the exact option from a dropdown menu.
You can also access Logos's Smart Bible Search, a natural-language search tool that eliminates the need for specific search syntax, directly within your open Bible as a Smart Inline Bible Search. When you navigate to the Search tab in your Bible's Dynamic Toolbar, a dropdown will appear to the left of your search bar that allows you to switch between Smart and Precise searches.
