"Document Window" is probably better as we will not need to change it when sword
adds non text documents.

"Document Index".

I must not be following you here.
Right mouse on a module in the module list (left pane)
Drop down menu
New Presenter
Delete Selected Modules
Search Modules
Show Info
Right mouse on a module in the module list (left pane)
Drop down menu
Create New Group
Import Bookmark
Export Bookmark
Delete selected item
Right mouse on a "Document Window"
SAVE AS HTML
Save as Text
Select All
Copy Selected
Copy to Clipboard
Add to print que
After trying document functions, they seem to copy text with key when the key is
in the window, otherwise not
Lexicons - key is full reference
Commentaries - Key is full reference
Bibles - key is only verse number
What am I missing, I am not sure what function you are referring to.
