User Testimonials

"Just a word to praise your efforts on the new version 5.

It is a tremendous improvement over previous versions, especially in regard to language use.

I have three other bible software programs which I use, yours is head and shoulders above the others.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you!"

What is Hover and how do I use it?

Note: The following text is taken from the What’s New part of the PC Study Bible startup desktop.

Hover

By 'hover' we mean the ability to hold your mouse cursor over an item and have something 'pop-up.' This is similar to holding your mouse cursor over a button to view a pop-up description of that button. However, the new 'hover' capability is specifically for items in reference lists (for example, in concordance and Global search results, in topical works like Nave's, and in The Treasury of Scripture Knowledge).

It enables you to move through a list of items and quickly view a 'snapshot' of each item of interest, without having to double-click on each one. As always, when you find one of interest you can double-click on it to display it in the secondary panel and continue your study from there.

Tips

If you would rather have the hover not automatically appear, you can change the hover settings under Options, Hover Options.

To set the hover so that it will only pop-up when you also click the Ctrl key, check Require Control key to see hover.

Uncheck Show Hover options reminder at bottom of hover to streamline the hover text.

You can change the time required for the hover to appear under Delay
