Addition to Lookup "word" in >
I like that one can look up a word in a dictionary and the list shows what dictionaries have that word.
It would be nice if at the bottom of that list or the top that one could click something that makes it update all open dictionaries
that have the word.
For example I have BDAG, AMGL, TDNTa all open and it would speed things up.
Not a necessary feature just a suggestion.

That would be a complementary addition to the existing "word click" feature, but gives the bonus of being able to choose just one type of trigger.

Usually, this is an action initiated from the Bible view (the idea is that one wants to look up a Bible word). The alternative here would be to type the word in the topics combo

While using the Book view for writing sermons. I at times have some greek variant words that are not in the Bible directly. I've added them to my book view from sources such as NA28 critical apparatus or another variant module.

This is just a suggestion not a need.
I do usually use the topic combo box and at times select a dictionary from Look up "word" in >
Thanks for the response. I keep trying to point other people in the direction of theWORD. Thanks for this excellent software.
