Front-end developers… Not all SWORD/JSword front-end apps have a UI control to show/hide/select variants in modules that have GlobalOptionFilter=OSISVariants specified in the conf file and with the related markup in the OSIS textsource. The new module FreVulgGlaire currently in CrossWire Beta

Tim is right. Modules TR and WHNU do not include this line in the conf file. GlobalOptionFilter=UTF8GreekAccents It would be a simple enough task for these modules to be updated to include this line. Peter ? Best regards, David -- View this message in context: http://sword-dev.350566.n4.

Whatever one might think as a textual critic about the presence or absence of diacritical marks in the original Hebrew of the Tanach, there's a strong sense that such consideration should not come into this technical discussion. The simple truth is that each SWORD module aims to reproduce a clearl

It seems that you are correct regarding the rendering of Tisch on PocketSword, however if one uses the 2TGreek module which includes Tisch., it does have the option to show the Greek accents. It seems though that if one is viewing the 2TGreek module at the time of the setting change, it requires

Yep, *PocketSword* hides both Hebrew vowels and cantillation. :( And then there's *UTF8ArabicPoints*. Yet strangely enough, *PocketSword* does show the points in (say) the *AraNAV* module. There's a strange inconsistency within this topic. I suppose this came to the scene later than Greek & Hebre

Even with only two variants supported by SWORD, it manages to get things wrong! e.g. Xiphos has module options for selecting variants: * Primary reading * Secondary reading * All readings Yet when the user selects *Primary*, the *Secondary* reading is displayed, and /vice versa/! This is not a

While SWORD only supports two variants currently, what would actually happen if a module also contained a third variant at any particular location? Would it be shown or hidden? Best regards, David -- View this message in context: http://sword-dev.350566.n4.nabble.com/OSISVariants-SWORD-tp465

The need to form parallel arrays is not something that can be validated in the OSIS schema, especially if we merely adapt the *seg* element to markup each part of the array. A location with a *seg* element for variant 1 but no *seg* element for variant 2 will still validate. If we input such an X

No variants doesn’t make sense to me. How do you envision that being useful? The basic idea of a variant is that the base text is variant 1. Showing variant 1 gives the base text. The second text is variant 2. Showing variant 2 gives the second text. Showing no variant will only show the text i
