Topic: Add cards from set

General info:
I have almost complete sets of cards and is pretty annoying to add card by card when you have complete set.

Feature suggestions name:
Add all cards from set

How it will work:
Clicking on "Add all cards from set" you will have to choose the set.
Let's say you choose "M15" after you choose set you will have radio buttons that will say:
- All
- Partial
If partial is checked you will have checkboxes:
- Black
- White
- Green
- Red
- Blue
- Multicolor
- Colorless
and an input field with label "How many you have" and here as user you can complete how many you have.

How I will use it:
I will click on "Add all cards from set" then select "M15" set then check "All" then I will complete in the input field "How many you have" with 4 and "Submit".

Other:
Of course this can be improved, but I think that the idea is clear smile

No reply for a while, is this suggestion something that deckbox stuff is considering?

The lack of this feature is what is keeping me from switching to deckbox full time for my collection manager. I still use iMTG, which is the only reason I keep my iPad around, simply because it has an add all button.

Re: Add cards from set

Yep, definitely something we want to do.

I'm currently thinking of implementing it it some way on the edition page. (Like here http://deckbox.org/editions/179-magic-2 … ack-promos ).

I think that would work great and would definitely be a welcome feature

Re: Add cards from set

I would also appreciate a "add complete set" feature.

Re: Add cards from set

Perhaps you could allow the export of a blank set list (by set type), so we can do the entry in excel and then import back into deckbox. This would allow us to avoid this cumbersome interface altogether and let us get right to the management and deck building portion. No one wants to spend the time required to do this to begin with, let alone with a clumsy interface.

Or does anyone know where blank set lists in excel can be found on the net? I have no interest in creating one, or cleaning up someone elses efforts.

thanks

Re: Add cards from set

This functionality was added in December. You use the Mass Input function of the Edition Checklist feature (Premium only). The only place this falls down is if you want to catalog something like a Duel Deck which is distributed with multiples of certain cards. In this case you would mass input one of each card and then manually add the additional cards (which is easy).
