Workspaces

The concept of a work space is similar to having different multiple parks or playgrounds with the same swing sets. Workspaces allows you to have different windows whether it be Bibles, commentaries, dictionaries, or any combination of these documents arranged in different fonts, formats, or order. The way we use our Bibles differs depending on what we are doing.

• For personal devotions we might like just one Bible in large print with no bookmarks.

• For daily readings we may prefer several Bibles in different translations.

• At church we could show one Bible and a sermon notes Study Pad.

• And for focused Bible study we might have many Bibles-and-commentaries ready for easy access.

Workspaces help you do all this and more.

Workspaces remember:

• the current bible references

• the window arrangement

• colors

• fonts

• label display style overrides (see Override Label Style per Workspace)

• and most other window settings

Access the list of workspaces via the ‘dot’ menu or by swiping down on the verse selector. This list allows you to:

• reorder workspaces

• create new workspaces

• and delete existing ones

The Settings option allows you to edit the default text display settings for all windows in the workspace. These workspace settings override the global defaults, and in turn can be overridden by individual window settings.

The gray workspace icon indicates you are changing a workspace default setting.

Warning

These settings affect all windows in the workspace that are using the defaults.

A green workspace icon indicates that this window setting is using the default workspace setting. A settings gear icon indicates the setting is inherited from global defaults.

If there is no icon, then the setting has been changed manually and changes at higher levels won’t affect it. Restore it to the default by pushing the Reset button.

For more details on how settings are inherited, see Text display settings hierarchy.
