Navigation Tips for Palm OS

To go to a verse:

1. Use "Verse Chooser" - tap the scripture reference on the toolbar and input the verse reference you want to go to.

2. Use the "Find" - tap the magnifying glass icon in the toolbar and input the verse reference that you want to go to by using a combination of the letters and numbers.

3. Use shortcut commands above if the verse has recently been referenced.

4. Navigating within a book using the graffiti area or tap keyboard:

User must first go into Edit>Preferences>Main to enable the Numbers Navigate Verses feature in BibleReader. This will disable the shortcuts to the four desktop options but will enable the user to input verse references in the graffiti area of the screen or the tap keyboard.

  • Within a book to navigate to another verse BibleReader looks for a pattern: Chapter Number - whitespace - Verse Number - whitespace
  • Whitespace is a "space" character or the characters ,+ - . ; : (comma,plus, dash, period, colon, semi-colon)
  • Numbers can be input up to 3 digits.

Some examples:

The sequence "2 3" (quotes not included) will navigate to chapter 2 verse 3

The sequence "22:1-" (quotes not included) will navigate to chapter 22 verse 1

The sequence "2" (quotes not included) will navigate to verse 2

Any non-whitespace character such as a b c d , etc. will reset the sequence as
if nothing was entered, so if you make a mistake, just write/type an "a".

To find a word/phrase:

1. Tap the Go/Find icon (magnifying glass), input the word/phrase you are searching for either by using the keyboard or graffiti area, or copy/paste from text itself. Set the range options for the search and tap "Find First"

To find a note:

Using NASB with Strong's Numbers if you know a specific Strong's number that you want to reference. Tap the tree icon and choose Note Chooser. Input the number in the dialogue area and tap Go. The note will appear.
