Good job on a complicated answer to a simple question... obviously she does not want to mess with sql.
Go with ToolTip. Best for this kind of work.
Hi Ryan,
In many respect I agree with you. Tooltip Tool, is really great to put out a module at speed with good formatting added. But there are somethings that T4 cannot do which require finer editing work. Perhaps the best example is font sizes. T4 uses preset font sizes, pretty much along the lines of what the e-Sword editors use. But if one wants a font size somewhere between, e.g., 20 and 24 points (40 and 48 half points), and let's say you want the font size to be at 22 points (44 half points) e.g., {\fs44 A Heading or something}, you're not going to get it. And therein lies the issue. However, for these kind of finer details SQLite does come in handy where they can be put in by typing in the rtf code for it.
Other examples are finer Line Indentation specifications, finer Line Spacing specification which are not present T4, but may be required. With that said, it must be noted that it should not be expected for T4 to have them simply because its not designed to do the finer work. It would be unreasonable to have a bulldozer to do the work of a spade, and vise versa if one wants to have the resource out at a reasonably good time.
Another point about this is that T4 is not a Database editing tool, and so when it comes to languages that require right to left reading, e.g., Hebrew and Arabic, as far as I am aware (and I could be wrong about this) T4 does not implement this setting when converting it to an SQLite database file for e-Sword to read right to left. And if that is the case then these kind of settings has to be manually typed in as a boolean (1 for True set to Right to Left, 0 or nothing for False to set or leave at default). Moreover, T4 does not have the capability for required UTF settings for certain foreign languages which are required in the Database file, and therefore one needs to be able to implement these kind of settings within the Database Engine or Editor.
For all these finicky kind of things I use SQLite Manager.
Blessings,
