but the quick search work properly only in the inventory and don't work in the database : is it a bug ?

Do not forget that you should first sort database by Name or Name(Oracle) ascending (otherwise quick search field is completely disabled).

Goblin Hero how we named the folders that have Planes and Vanguard cards? And how we named the pictures like Boom/Bust, Assault/Battery etc.? Keep up that great work.

2 other request for our program :
1st in the filter button a None button that don't show
nobody sets that was usefull for me ( we don't have to deselect every sets )
2nd in card filter a multicolor filter for the gold card
and after that when you select a color was usefull don't show in it the gold card.
I hope that request are for a better a easy way to use this
beautiful program.

1st in the filter button a None button that don't show
nobody sets

Try to right click on set list, lang list and checkboxes groups.

2nd in card filter a multicolor filter for the gold card
and after that when you select a color was usefull don't show in it the gold card.

Do not understand what you want. Give an example of cards you want to filter out.

If I select to show only the white card in the database , i see all the white cards and the gold card that have the white mana on it.
I think that will be more simple to show only the white and with another filter show all the multicolor gold together .

To show white-only cards just select all colors except white and switch mode to NOT.

hi, im new here. i found the magic album, and i like the idea of the software very much. thanks for its developing.

im trying add there my cards collection, i cant find this card in database: cryptic command, textless foil from wizards reward program.

in card filter options: in sets column, i would apreciate option/button to select all/none sets. to select none set and then select 1 set i like. instead of deselecting all others sets one by one. or is there any other option?

I wanted to pass on tons of praise. I use Pocketmtg all the time now, and album is something that I've been searching for. So far I love it. I understand that you have quite a long list of things that you are trying to accomplish. You might consider adding these suggestions to your list.

1. Being able to save a deck directly as a Magic Workstation deck file.
2. Better support for the missing cards. Unless I'm doing it wrong, the only thing you can do with missing cards is save a copy or save the list of names. For me, it would be nice to get a report with any of the fields that I want so that I can print my missing list to go to a show.
3. Would it be easier to let album simply use MWS's pictures? That way you wouldn't have to keep 2 versions of every card.
4. The Green light red light system for legality is neat. How do restricted cards work?

Your work is awesome and I appreciate it. It's good to have software made by a collector for the collector. I'll try to scrape something together for a donation as soon as I can.

Easier, but not suitable.

4. The Green light red light system for legality is neat. How do restricted cards work?

Yellow light.

This piece of software is very promising. Good work, GH.

My suggestions:

1) Ability to add cards from a preconstructed deck in bulk to inventory (preserving the number of each card instances).
2) Grouping cards in db and inventory views by custom filter (sets, legality, language etc).
3) Ability to apply custom saved filters faster (i.e. from a drop-down menu).
4) Context menu (right-click) for database and inventory records.
5) In database filter window would be nice to have a check all/none/invert buttons. Ideally - one set of buttons per filter category (Object types, Languages, Sets, etc)
