Word click bug & work around

Post by jonathangkoehn »

To run the test to find this bug and work around you'll need
For the bug:
1. NA28 Bible or a Bible with I believe at least strongs and lemmas.
2. A strongs # only dictionary is open in a book view and all linked options are enabled.
3. Go to Bible View options.
4. Then to "Word click options" make sure "Strong's number, if exists" is checked.
5. Next staying in "Bible View Options" go to "Strong's numbers"
A. make sure "Show no link, just show in a popup..." is unchecked.
6. Apply then Close "Bible View Options"
7. Click on any word in the Bible view - Bug - the dictionary will not sync up since the Word click option for strongs is enabled.

For the workaround:
1. Open "Bible View Options"
2. Go to "Strong's numbers"
A. make sure "Show no link, just show a popup..." is checked
3. Apply then Close "Bible View Options"
4. Click on any word in the Bible view - the dictionary will now sync up fine.

I've checked it with the other check boxes in Strong's numbers and it doesn't seem to matter.
Do you have any thoughts on this Costas? Can someone else reproduce this? It is not a big deal but can stump a person as to why it doesn't work and why it works.

It does work correctly but it is difficult to explain.
With the NA28 there are 4 pieces of information in each word, so when you show the Strong's numbers there are only 3.

It is explained in the note at the top of the word click options and
