Resource Panel Menu

Print Friendly and PDF

The Resource Panel Menu can be accessed by clicking the Panel Menu icon  in the upper-right of any resource panel.

 

Panel Menu Contents

The Panel Menu reveals the following options (and some of these are not available for all resource types):

  • Text Size Slider – Change the text size. This change will apply to the panel, rather than the resource, so that a named layout containing two panels of the same resource will respect each panel’s set text size.
  • Find (in this panel) – Cmd+F (Mac) or Ctrl+F (Windows) – Displays a find box in the upper-right of the resource.
  • Link Set – Resources that are indexed by the same data type can be linked together so they navigate to the same reference at the same time. You can link a Bible that has embedded lemmas (that is, an interlinear or reverse interlinear Bible) together with a lexicon or Bible Word Study panel in one link set. Then, click on a word in your open Bible and the lexicon or Bible Word Study panels will open to that lemma.
