Elemente des BibleTime Fensters

Das Bücherregal

Tip

Hier funktioniert Drag&Drop

If you are reading a certain work, and want to open another work at the passage you are reading, you can use a shortcut. Simply click with the left mouse button on the verse/passage reference (pointer changes to hand) and drag it to the Bookshelf. Drop it on the work you want to open, and it will be opened for reading at the specified location. You can also drag a verse reference into an existing read window, then it will jump to the specified location.

Weitere Informationen über Werke

If you click with the right mouse button on the symbol of a work, you will see a menu with additional entries that are relevant for this work. "About this work" opens a window with lots of interesting information about the selected work. "Unlock this work" opens a small dialog for encrypted documents, where you can enter the unlock key to access the work. For additional information on locked works, please see this page on the Crosswire Bible Society web site.

In Werken suchen

You can search in a work by clicking with the right mouse button on its symbol and selecting "Search in work(s)". By pressing Shift and clicking on other works you can select more than one. Then follow the same procedure to open the search dialog. You will be searching in all of these documents. A complete description of the operation of the search features can be found here.

Mit Lesezeichen arbeiten

Tip

Hier funktioniert Drag&Drop

Click with the right mouse button on the bookmark category of the bookshelf and select "Create new folder" to create a new bookmark subfolder. You can use normal drag & drop functions to drag verse references from read windows or search results to the bookmark folder, and to rearrange bookmarks between folders.

You can also import bookmarks from other people or export bookmarks to share them. To do this, open the context menu of the bookmark folder as described above, and select "Export bookmarks". This will bring up a dialog box for you to save the bookmark collection. You can import bookmarks in a similar way.

Sie können mit dem rechten auf Ordner und Lesezeichen klicken, um die Namen und Beschreibungen zu ändern.

Die Lupe

Diese kleine Fenster in der linken unteren Ecke von BibleTime ist rein passiv. Wann immer der Mauspfeil über Text positioniert ist, welcher zusätzliche Informationen (z.B. Strongnummern) enthält, dann werden eben diese in der Lupe dargestellt, nicht jedoch der Text selbst. Probieren sie es einfach aus.

Die Arbeitsfläche

Auf der Arbeitsfläche findet die tatsächliche Arbeit mit BibleTime statt. Hier können Sie Werke aus dem Bücherregal öffnen, sie lesen, darin suchen und sogar ihre persönlichen Anmerkungen im persönlichen Kommentar speichern (siehe unten).

Werke lesen

As we have already seen, you can open works for reading simply by clicking on their symbol in the Bookshelf. A read window will open in the Desk's area. Every read window has a toolbar. There you can find tools to navigate in the work that this read window is connected to, as well as history buttons like the ones that you know from your browser.

Lese-Fenster Anordnung

Of course, you can open multiple works at the same time. There are several possibilities for arranging the read windows on the desk. Please have a look at the entry Window in the main menu. There you can see that you can either control the placement of the read windows completely yourself, or have BibleTime handle the placement automatically. To achieve this, you have to select one of the automatic placement modes available at WindowArrangement mode. Just try it out, it's simple and works.

Bearbeiten Sie ihren eigenen Kommentar

To be able to store your own comments about parts of the Bible, you have install a certain work from the library of the Crosswire Bible Society. This work is called "Personal commentary".

If you open the personal commentary by clicking on its symbol in the Bookshelf with a left mouse button, it opens in read mode. You will not be able to edit it in this mode. Should you wish to write annotations into the personal commentary, you have to open it with the right mouse button and then select Edit this work and then either Plain text(source code editor) or HTML(basic gui wysiwyg editor).

Tip

If Edit this work is deactivated, please check if you have write permission for the files of the personal commentary.
