Using Auto-Lookup

Scattered throughout Libronix are numerous automated reports, none more practical than Auto-Lookup. This report does what its name says: it automatically looks up references for you. I’ll show a couple of helpful ways to use the report:
Lookup Footnotes

  • Open the NET Bible which is filled with numerous footnotes (green text) some of which are too long to view in the temporary popup window which appears when your hover the cursor on the green text
  • Select (highlight) a range of verses containing footnotes such as John 3.16-21
  • Right click on the highlighted range of verses
  • From the right menu select Auto-Lookup

All of the footnotes appear at one time in the Auto-Lookup window for your viewing pleasure!
Lookup Bible References

  • Open a book containing numerous blue Bible cross references such as Naves Topical Bible
  • Select (highlight) the text with the Bible references
  • Right click on the highlighted text
  • From the right menu select Auto-Lookup

Using your Preferred Bible the Auto-Lookup window displays all of your verses!

I tried this example for Net Bible exactly as stated. However, the text for Popup 36 in the Auto-Lookup window is cutoff at the same location as it is in the pop-up window.

Amazing tool! So practical when you are reading a book and you don't want to hover your mouse over all the references.
