Bible Search enhancement

Post by therapon »

It is often helpful to see the results of a search in context. It would be great if mouseover a verse in the results displayed a popup of the verse in its context. A global setting of how many verses before and after to display in the popup would be good also. Mouseover the Count/Graph portion of the window displays additional information in a popup. I'm suggesting the same type of popup when hovering over the verse reference.

therapon,
This may be a very crude workaround.
Use NEARv or NEARw.
I tried temple NEARv4 a

'a' being a vowel that would be found almost always within a couple of verses.
Whole Words Only needs to be unchecked.
I only used it on 'current book' and it gave me the context of 8 surrounding verses where ever I got a hit on 'temple'.
I am sure there are better ways to do this.

Yeah, that might do it for me sometimes. The issue is that extra keystrokes or mouse clicks tend to mess up my train of thought, besides slowing things down. On a typical weekday I spend 8-10 hours in theWord so I'm always looking for things that will make my workflow more efficient.
