5.1 Beta Testing (Windows)
Posted: Thu Jul 07, 2016 11:13 am
We have the 5.1 beta of Bible Analyzer ready to test.
There are not a lot of changes in the function or appearance of Bible Analyzer with 5.1, but it does have a few new features plus a couple new external features.
New Devotions Viewer With Daily Bible Reader.
The Devotions Viewer now has four tabs with an added Bible reader with several reading plans and the option to view in paragraph or verse mode. The text is displayed in its own window instead of just opening the daily reference in the main Bible panel. However, there is a link at the beginning of every chapter that will navigate the Bible panel if wanted.
Instead of having a separate tab for each devotion, they are now in a drop down menu under the Devotions tab.
Multiple User Notes
Now there can be multiple user note sessions created and saved/loaded from the first button in the Notes Toolbar. When the user opens a saved session it will sync to the current reference. With this a user can have many user note files and switch between them easily.
Web Page Links Can Navigate Bible Analyzer
This feature allows web page authors to create links in their pages that will cause Bible Analyzer to open and,
Display a Bible Reference
Display a Bible Verse List in MW
Do a Bible Search
Open Dictionary Topic
Open Commentary
Open Book Chapter
This will make it convenient for ministers/teachers to utilize Bible Analyzer with their students.
If Bible Analyzer is not open the link will cause Bible Analyzer to open and perform the function specified in the link. IF Bible Analyzer is open it will perform the task with the current instance.
(There is a delay of around one second from when the link is clicked and the action performed in Bible Analyzer. This is a built in delay in Windows and not Bible Analyzer itself.)
Note:
These links will only work with the installed edition of Bible Analyzer. It will not work with the Portable edition. The reason is a small entry must be made to the Windows registry to activate the link URL and this requires the setup edition. (The portable edition will work if the user wants to make this entry in the registry. Here is a small reg script to install it, http://www.bibleanalyzer.com/files/registerBAurl.rerg)
Here is a sample page of the capabilities of these links, http://www.bibleanalyzer.com/BALinksTest.html
PopVerse Intregation
A soon to be released version of PopVerse, our Chrome browser extension, will also have the option to open links in Bible Analyzer. We will announce when it is released.
Here is the v5.1 beta installer, http://www.bibleanalyzer.com/files/BA510-setup.exe
This is an intregated installer for both the Setup and Portable editions. Again, to utilize the links feature you must use the Setup installation (default).
Post here what you find in v5.1.
