More search scope options (suggested enhancement) #151

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
Currently the search scope options are these three:

Search where
* Whole Bible
* Old Testament
* New Testament

One obvious item is missing:

* Current Book

Yet these additional possibilities would also make sense:

* Pentateuch (Books of Moses)
* Historical Books
* Wisdom Books
* Major Prophets
* Minor Prophets
* Gospels
* Acts
* Paul's Epistles
* General Epistles
* Revelation

cf. The And Bible passage selector is color coded for these different blocks of 
books of the [protestant] canon.

If some users might find the surfeit of choices confusing, you could include a 
settings option to toggle the suggested extra "Search where" options, though 
I'd still prefer "Current Book" to be included in the basic choices.

I actually included 'Current book' in the original screen but it didn't fit 
nicely on the screen so I hid it.  However, I was using a G1 then and screens 
are generally larger now.

The full suggested list would fit nicely on an Android tablet.
There's plenty of space on my 7 inch screen.

Most phones could now cope with 'Current book' as an extra option.

Current book was added in some time ago.  I think this works fine for now.
