Add multiple cards to collections

Dear Nikolay,

Is there a way to add multiple cards to my collection with a single command? I often buy commons and uncommon sets of a given collection to draft singleton decks, and it would be much easier if I could select a full expansion directly to my collections.

Thanks for your great work here! You have truly the best mtg manager here.

Hello, @pedrohasselmann, sorry for an extremely delayed response.

I believe the functionality you want is currently half-available. There is a button Add to Collection from Clipboard

The question would be how to put the cards you need to the Clipboard. I suggest adding another clipboard operation button Copy search result to clipboard.

The flow would be the following:

1. Filter to the set you want using Search bar. The query would become like SetCode: ISD
2. Narrow down the search result to the cards you want to add e.g. exactly 1 copy. 2.1 Get the card names that need to be excluded to Search bar by clicking on Search button over card name field The query becomes SetCode: ISD NameEn: "some name" 2.2 Edit the query to exclude the card, add AND NOT operator, so the query becomes SetCode: ISD AND NOT NameEn: "card name"
3. Copy search result to clipboard - 1 copy of any card in search result is added to clipboard
4. Add to collection from Clipboard 1 time 2'. Narrow down the search result to the cards which you want to add exactly 2 copies 3'. Copy search result to clipboard 4'. Add to collection from Clipboard 2 times ...

The solution above requires only a little work from me, so as soon as we agree on it or something as easy as it, I will add it to Mtgdb.Gui and release new version within 1 day.
