Hi Alex,
Have you had any success compiling Bishop? What operating system do you
use for development?
Hi Troy, I haven't started any work on this yet. I wanted to get
feedback before I started poking around Bishop's code. I almost always
use Linux for development.
display "Modes". The current mode, which can display up to 3 Bibles in
parallel, I've kept the default and named "Bible". I've added 2 new
display modes: Language Assist and Commentary Assist. Both of these are
split screen modes which show the primary Bible text on the left and as
you scroll it populates the right with the chosen tool. Language Assist
places the Word Study tool on the right. Commentary Assist places the
Commentary tool on the right. These are the same tools as on the Verse
Study screen, but just pull forward to the mail screen, split to the
right side. I wanted to make the scroll on the Word Study tool
highlight the current word as you scrolled, in the same way the current
verse hightlights as you scroll the Bible view. This way, when there is
a word I need help with, I can scroll the right side quickly until that
word is highlighted in the verse and then I'll know that word is in view
with it's definition on the right.
This sounds interesting, and I'd like to try it out. I suppose this is
what's in your latest release to the Play Store?
Well, I finished the split screen view and the 3 modes, but it just
seems a little too small in the emulator screen. The Strong's
definitions we use have a bunch of extraneous information (like "See
XXXXX; See YYYYY+ZZZZZ). Which I don't think anyone ever uses. We don't
provide nice links for these texts, though we should. I am sure the
would be used more if we did. But for now, I was thinking of trying to
hide that info. It might make the tool more usable in the smaller split
screen on the right.
I agree. maybe you can make it an option under settings to hide them?
press difficulties. Maybe your swipe left idea might be cool to bring
up the Word Study tool instead of splitting the screen. That would make
it easier to switch between the two.
I'll see what I can come up with. It might take a little while though
since I'm totally unfamiliar with Cordova.
