How about an option to turn off check for update on startup? If someone don't want to update for some time.
And adding an option to check for update in About/information menu. Forgive me if we already have an option to check for update in other layouts. Haha.

[otseng]

Just create an issue and then add the "enhancement" label.

https://github.com/eliranwong/UniqueBible/issues

[onegladiator4u]

May I know how to add the label? I couldn't find the option to add it. I think only you guys can add the label. I couldn't find the option on the right side as I see in YouTube videos

you can create an issue, we add a label for you.

[otseng]

@eliranwong can you add @onegladiator4u as a reporter?

[onegladiator4u]

I created the issue. You can now add label.Enhancement

[otseng]

I wish there was a way to quickly see who posted last in the discussions and issues. There's currently a request to do this. If anybody else would also like to see this, can you give an amen here?

community/community#2951

[jdecent]

Can you make the "Next Chapter" button maintain current view. For example I usually have it in comparison mode. I can advance to next chapter by using "Master Control" window but currently prefer editing the command line input box.

[otseng]

I can duplicate it. I'll fix it here:

#303

[eliranwong]

I watch @jdecent screen recording once more. I finally figured when it does not work and why the difference between my computer setting and yours @jdecent @onegladiator4u

I found that you have Sync Study Window Bible enabled. When it is enabled, config.enforceCompareParallel does not work. I will try to fix along this finding.

The latest PR has an issue, that's why I haven't updated that to end-users yet.

meanwhile, you can use enforceCompareParallel, by disabling sync Study Window bible.

I will to look into a more satisfactory solution.

[eliranwong]

Fixed in this commit: 665b564

[eliranwong]

@jdecent @onegladiator4u you may update to version 23.10 to get the fix, thanks for reporting the issue.

[onegladiator4u]

It's working . Thanks for the quick fix.

Hi guys,
I got mp3 files for my language Bible . I also have the information on the starting and ending of the timing for the verse of the Bible chapter.
Is there a chance that you could make files that can be used along mp3 files that import timings like these to play each verse than full chapter. Otherwise we have to cut each chapter mp3 to verses mp3.
i have html that has info like this

var timings = [
{ label: "1", start: 3.5, end: 21.05 },
{ label: "2", start: 21.3, end: 32.35 },
{ label: "3", start: 32.6, end: 36.83 },
{ label: "4", start: 37.08, end: 47.33 },

];
If this is very a big job don't need to look into this.

[otseng]

I'll look into this.

#1034

[onegladiator4u]

Hey guys,
Since material layout now have easy access to chapter on toolbar like this

Does this layout need chapter numbers on top and bottom of main window like this? May be you could add option to hide it.

What do you guys think?

[otseng]

Created issue: #1057

@onegladiator4u Hi bro, do you use Windows? can you send me a screenshot of UBA system tray on Windows? Thank you.

[eliranwong]

@onegladiator4u can you take a screenshot when menu is open like the macOS or Linux screenshot in this wiki page: https://github.com/eliranwong/UniqueBible/wiki/UBA-System-Tray ? Many thanks.

[onegladiator4u]

Oh sorry. i thought you just want to look how it looks.

[eliranwong]

Great! Thank you.

[eliranwong]

just curious, do you have two UBA copies? Is the red icon also UBA?

[onegladiator4u]

Haha no, it's Bitdefender Antivirus :-)

Hello. I just found out about this program, and I am trying to figure out how to install it. Here is my request: please make an appimage of this program to make it easier to use. Appimages just work, and are the simplest to use on Linux; even common peons can use them right away. I am using an old bblx file of yours on a wine version of E-sword, which led me here. Thanks.

Hi there,
Are there developments to get this as executable?
One that could run out of the box on a usb drive for example.

That way it would be portable and userfriendly. Happy coding! Phillipians 4:13

[otseng]

I had tried that. But unfortunately, the executable gets blocked by virus detection programs. So, it had to be abandoned.

If you want some other ways to use it without installing anything, you can go to:
https://bible.gospelchurch.uk/index.html
https://transliteralbible.com/index.html

A mobile friendly one is at:
https://uniquebibleapp.com

[1eam]

Give it another go! try again.
Also not everyone uses a virus-detection programme.
I for instance dont and havent used one in a decade. Besides many anti-virusses provide an option to trust a piece of software.

However that asside, I'm sure there are options to get your programme installed as regular .exe or mac installation which may require a fundamental change and therefore even a separate rebuild.

Perhaps another framework
Don't give up! Happy coding :)

[pvt02]

Thanks for the feedback from other users. I am a recovering Windows user, and recommend Devuan Linux, with the Cinnamon desktop, and a Windows 7 theme. This OS is more secure (Systemd is being cut out -from the NSA/RedHat-, just saying ...) than even most other Linux varieties. It is also not too hard to learn to use as a former Windows user. If you try it do not give up! Also try learning to use virtual machines for even more security. ANYway, thanks again to the developers of UniqueBible.

Hello again. I have been looking for the morphology/grammar codes KEY for marvel.bible

I also notice that https://hb.openscriptures.org/structure/OshbVerse/index.html?b=Gen&c=1&v=1
has different morphology/grammar codes. For example for the word-pair b/ruhshith in Genesis 1.1 : there the codes are
HR/Ncfsa and the KEY is located at
https://hb.openscriptures.org/parsing/HebrewMorphologyCodes.html
which then gives the meaning as Hebrew pReposition/Noun common-noun feminine singular absolute-state, if I understand properly.

But for the same word-pair at marvel.bible there is: prep subs.f.sg.a
I can guess some of these (I for example do not know what "subs" might mean), but for reading/studying/learning Hebrew scripture we need a KEY. Can you please provide a link to that key? There are people who can benefit from your work that have less study than I do, and they would not make heads of tails of these codes.

I also notice that the first site uses "b" for the preposition meaning "in" etc, but marvel.bible uses some sort of extended Strong's H9003. Where can we see this extended Strongs concordance?

[pvt02]

update: So on the issue of morphology/grammar codes, yesterday on marvel.bible when I clicked the codes nothing happened. Today something happened, a new window popped up on the right, with a brief explanation. However that key/explanation still left questions, such as how "subs." means a noun, or what "unknown" refers to.
