Controlling which dictionary will display on click

Hi,
Is there supposed to be a key to hold down so that when you click a word in the Bible view it shows in the current selected dictionary, and does not keep jumping to the default.

It used to be a key (ctrl) but now (v4) there is a small "D" button on the dictionary and commentary window toolbars that does the same. The button is selected (in) by default which causes all click actions to go to the default resource. If the button is not "On," the actions will be performed on the current resource.

Yes I get it now. I was looking at the very good video you made, and you said that holding down the Alt key would change the behaviour. I had not realized that, I had to unselect the "d" in the view for this to work as stated.
Do you consider this to be an issue?

I need to update the video. I changed it because the button gives the user a visible reference to the state of the default resource and can easily be changed without having to remember a key sequence.
