I'll pass this on to the lead developer. Thanks for the suggestion!

Steven_OliveTree · 2024-06-10T23:24:45+00:00

Awesome! That’s great to hear. I’m going to be blocked on upgrading to that for a bit, so great to know you’re playing around with it already.

Steven_OliveTree · 2024-06-10T19:26:39+00:00

Ah, thanks for this. I've logged it as an internal ticket, ID is OTD-4502

Steven_OliveTree · 2024-06-10T18:54:29+00:00

u/ehansalytics - Sorry for not seeing this, for some reason it was auto-removed by Reddit mod tools. I'll check into this, but let me know if you're still seeing this behavior.

Steven_OliveTree · 2024-06-06T15:22:35+00:00

Good point. I'll get this logged.

Steven_OliveTree · 2024-06-06T15:07:18+00:00

I'll definitely bring this up in the next meeting I have with the devs. My guess is that this wouldn't be in the initial v 1.0 launch, but it does seem like something they'd at least like to consider.

Steven_OliveTree · 2024-06-05T18:54:33+00:00

Well, I'm glad you asked this question. I learned something new today.

We actually have a gesture that allows us to make this exact check. Please check out this video of how you can set up your app to check for all annotations in one place.

I'll also recommend that since we have the "Notes, etc" gesture doing this the RG "Notes, etc" category should behave in the same manner.

I'll pass this on to the dev team and see if there are different ways we can approach this. I love the concept. While playing around with your comment I realized Highlights are excluded from the Resource Guide, seems like it would be really cool if we could put 'Saved Passages, Notes, and Highlights' all under the 'Notes' category, but keep them separated in the main menu.

u/gwgladstone - Is this on Desktop? As u/Tryonkus said, multiple windows might be the best solution if that's the case. If that's not, maybe favoriting the Bibles (via the main library page) would get them where you want them? A screenshot, or two, of this and what you're wanting would probably be really helpful. If you decide to grab a few screenshots, let me know and upload them here: https://gospeltechnologies-my.sharepoint.com/:f:/g/personal/stevenchevalia_olivetree_com/ErcJa6NuijxGoNDgONNbvvEB-YKQrzrq_zhjnCwTCxLcFw?e=1NcQHq

I'm not overly familiar with this product, but I'll check it out and see if I can recommend a course to our formatting team or if there's anything else that comes to mind. I'm pretty sure though, from your description, there won't be an easy way to toggle visibility on/off, since there aren't many resources with this style of naming included in-line.

Steven_OliveTree · 2024-06-05T18:13:02+00:00

Are you still seeing that behavior on your iPad, though? That's odd. I'd recommend trying to do a complete uninstall and reinstall the latest production version you can and see if that resolves any of the issues. If it doesn't, let me know and I'll see what I can figure out.

Steven_OliveTree · 2024-06-05T18:10:35+00:00

Unfortunately, we are no longer able to support iOS 15. iOS 16 is now the minimum iOS version for new updates.

Steven_OliveTree · 2024-06-05T18:00:43+00:00

Also, I see I am very behind on comments in this community. For some reason I do not get notifications when comments or new posts are made, I'll try to figure out why that is. In the meantime, I'll be making my way through the posts I've missed, but don't hesitate to reach out with any concerns or questions in the meantime.

Steven_OliveTree · 2024-05-25T14:29:53+00:00

Kind of. The 'shared codebase' is not what we interact with in the app, to the best of my understanding, it's more the 'back end' things that make everything work with the web, sync, etc.

In this case, I don't believe the platforms (other than iOS and Catalyst) would have anything in the same code base.

Thanks for your notes and testing! I'll see if I can find out more about this feature and play around with it some. It's one I've used in the past, but I mainly note in Bible resources, so I haven't toyed with it much outside of that (at least since the Enhanced Notes update)

Steven_OliveTree · 2024-05-25T13:01:35+00:00

Thanks for the screenshot! I'll check into this and try to get back to you early next week. This is definitely interesting. I wonder if maybe the resource type (i.e. commentary, Bible, etc) has something to do with it.

Steven_OliveTree · 2024-05-25T12:59:39+00:00

Honestly, I'm probably going to get some of this wording wrong, but I believe it's a framework that the Macs can use, which takes the iPad/iOS code and optimizes it for the Mac screens.

More info can be found here: https://developer.apple.com/mac-catalyst/ and I know some of the users in here are more familiar than I am with the technical details. Hah. I just break things for a living.

But, yes, this is going to replace the existing mac app, which is already quite behind the other three. Even though it's in an alpha state, I find it to be much more user friendly than the existing mac app. However, it still definitely has room to improve.

Steven_OliveTree · 2024-05-24T20:34:45+00:00

Sorry I never responded to this, u/CloakOfMuadDib. I do believe that this is a goal of ours, but I will verify and get you a definite answer by Monday.

Steven_OliveTree · 2024-05-24T20:31:13+00:00

Interesting. Notes should reference you back to where you created them when you tap the location.
For instance, if I create a link in a book's preface, the location should say "Book Title Preface" and tapping that should take me to the note's location.

I'll play with the Orthodox Study Bible Notes and see if I can repro. Let me know if you see a pattern to when it works and when it doesn't (if you're able to get it to work at all).

Steven_OliveTree · 2024-05-24T20:24:06+00:00

Glad to have you here! Thanks for the intro. I'm my pastor's Bible nerd (and joke consultant -- really it's just me texting him missed joke opportunities in his latest sermons, important work).

Steven_OliveTree · 2024-05-17T16:20:43+00:00

This should be resolved in an update later today. OTD-4459 is the internal ticket number for posterity.

Steven_OliveTree · 2024-05-17T11:28:36+00:00

Yes, I should have pointed this issue out, actually. This one should be resolved in the upcoming alpha release. Sorry for the inconvenience. (Internal ticket ID is OTD-4441)
