This is probably more of a feature request than a question, but…

I’m in the process of converting an exegetical guide (docx) to a ParaTExt project for some translation teams I work with. I’m using the \jmp ...\jmp* markup to make use of the Quick Reference window when I refer the reader to other biblical passages as well as other sections of the guide. I’m curious if there’s a way the user can define the resource that is used for quick references (similar to how one can select a preferred version in Logos and BibleWorks).

If not currently available, what I’m imagining is, for example, that the user could select his or her own language project as the version to be displayed in the Quick Reference window. If their project lacks the corresponding reference, the Quick Reference window could fall back to the version that had been hard-coded in the resource.

As the resource I’m creating is destined for several separate teams, I would not necessarily want to create separate projects for each team by inputting their project name into the \jmp ...\jmp* markup (though this could easily be done with search and replace). For example:

  1. Resource for Team AAA has references: \jmp Néh 13.3|prj:AAA.Neh.13.3\jmp*
  2. Resource for Team BBB has references: \jmp Néh 13.3|prj:BBB.Neh.13.3\jmp*
  3. Resource for Team CCC has references: \jmp Néh 13.3|prj:CCC.Neh.13.3\jmp*
