Re: HELP WITH MACSWORD
Now that's a bit strange.
If I right-click on the link I get exactly the context menu that I posted with exactly two entries.
The context menu you get is a different one. I don't know right now where that comes from but the "Open Link" menu item is not related to MacSword, in fact the whole context menu is not related to MacSword.

For information: the Strong's module in preferences is only needed for bible modules with Strong's numbers. In this case here, in the dictionary this Strong's setting in preferences is not needed.

I'm a little baffled right now because I don't know where that context menu comes from. Could you try to right-click on the link without selecting the text please?
I'm interested if the context menu changes then. I'm getting the same context menu for either case.

Re: HELP WITH MACSWORD
Alright, I just tested on Mac OSX 10.5 which I guess you are on.
Indeed here all custom context menu are not applied.
Have no idea why, need to investigate.

The "Open Link" function which you have in this context menu is the same as clicking on the link which display the result in the preview panel.

Re: HELP WITH MACSWORD
Just to add a data point. I'm on OSX 10.6.2 and I have the same issue (I see the longer context menu and my clicking on links does nothing).

Re: HELP WITH MACSWORD
We should avoid mixing things here.

There is a longer context menu that looks like this:

This is used if text is selected. The below menu items are automatically added by Mac OSX Services and may not be on your menu.

And a shorter one on links:


The MacSword specific things which are common in both is the menu item "About this module". On that you can see that it is a MacSword custom context menu.

Can you please be more precise with what you exactly mean when you say "clicking on links".
As I said, even the "Open Link" menu item in the default text view that Clerical experienced does something (showing the link result in the preview panel) but not the right thing.

Now if you say that neither of the above context menus are working in any text view of MacSword on Mac OSX Snow Leopard (10.6.x) I'm even more baffled.

Re: HELP WITH MACSWORD
Then the latest update should fix this issue and you should have the right context menus.
