Topic: Is there a way to filter by Quantity Owned?

I just want to make sure I'm not missing something obvious.  I'd like to filter my inventory to all cards where I own more than 4 copies of that card, but there doesn't seem to be a Qty filter.

Hello,

You cannot filter, but you can sort by quantity  owned, and browse from top number upto the ones that you have 3 of smile

Re: Is there a way to filter by Quantity Owned?

Hello,

I have two different cases here for a "filter/order by quantity" that don't seem to be handled by Deckbox at the moment:
- when I take a look at the page of a specific edition, I would like to be able to order by quantity owned *of that printing* and not of the total owned
- when I look at my inventory, I filter for instance on the name of a card or a specific language and I would like to be able to merge by edition or name without taking the condition into account. At the moment, if I have 2 NM in English, 1 EX in French and 1 NM in Japanese, I have 3 lines for the same card and that makes things more complicated

There are other cases, but these two are the two I come across the most.

Thanks!

So first off, I 100% agree that visually grouping / splitting (and by visually, I mean including totaling) based on various criteria would be an amazing native Deckbox feature. I'm going to present a solution below, for those times you REALLY need to get this done, but I acknowledge it's hardly ideal and should be native to the platform.

That said, I wrote a solution to a similar problem a couple years ago. He had a different use case, but the same technique will work in your case. If you find yourself needing to know these kinds of stats often, might be worth the hassle.

Re: Is there a way to filter by Quantity Owned?

Hello,
My second case is to understand what cards are missing to create playsets (this is why I don't care about condition/language or any other criteria).
Interestingly, I am already using the export feature to perform that and then using some command-line utilities to quickly get what I need. I was indeed referencing a native solution here that would be really awesome!

Thanks for you link by the way
