Improve Sermon Writer related to slide building & proclaim (be able to edit/format slides through Sermon Writer for Proclaim)
The Sermon Writer Tool was the main reason I went for Logos 7 but unfortunately it does not do all that it seemed that it would.
My Sermon Notes when exported to proclaim, lose their formatting (i.e bullet points). This erases much of the ease of what one would hope for Sermon. If I have bullet points or other formatting, I need to then go into Proclaim and edit the Notes again!
If you highlight words to create a slide, you can't format those words within the media portion of sermon writer.
If you choose a slide background, it doesn't automatically become the background for every slide created afterwards within your Sermon Writer.
You can't highlight a paragraph and put it on a slide, it only lets you highlight one line of text.
It would be nice to be able to access group slide uploads. So if I have a custom made title slide then I can include that right within Sermon.
Sermon has so many possibilities and really has the potential to make things efficient but currently it felt more like a tease and unfortunately does not perform to what I thought was presented in the trailer. Please keep developing it.
I like the idea of being able to streamline my sermon writing and slides and then use the proclaim remote to control slides but currently there are too many challenges.

Add three other things, 1. the ability to modify the formatting of the text (shadow, etc) 2. the ability to specify an alternate screen format so that you don't have to do so much work in proclaim after importing it, 3. maybe an option to keep logos and proclaim linked (rather than an export) so that changes in the notes will show in proclaim without having to re-export and import and format the second screen slides again.
