This was added to the mobile app a while ago, but never made it to the Web version yet. As of today it’s available for web too!

In the Add Comics by Series screen, you can now hide all issues that you already own, so that you can focus on your missing issues more easily.

Click the “Box” button at the top to “Hide Owned” comics, click it again to show all issues again.

So in today’s 9.7.3 update, we are addressing most of the complaints and suggestions.

Woohoo, just barely into 2023 and we’re up to version 23.3 already!
Based on lots of feedback from members of the CLZ Comics group on Facebook, we decided to completely re-design and rewrite the Pull List feature.

This re-designed Pull List tool was already released for the CLZ Comics mobile app and for the Comic Connect web-based software a couple of months ago. Today, the new design has come to your Comic Collector desktop software, expanding it into a fully flexible way to browse recent and upcoming comic releases.

Here’s an overview of all the improvements:

• Much faster Pull List tab
• View releases per week
• List releases in series folders or as one “flat list”
• New “My Series” tab: view releases for your existing series
• New “Discover” tab: browse ALL recent and upcoming releases!
• Easier adding of series to your Pull List
• Easily open the full issue list for any series

For this update, the main goal was to make the cover images in the Add Comics screen bigger, to make it easier to find the issue or variant that you own.

However, while working on that, we ran into some other things that could be improved, so we figured why not? So in the end, it turned out be a serious overhaul of the Add Comics screen 🙂

Here’s an overview of all the improvements:

• Bigger cover images in the Issue List
• The Issue List for a series now opens in a separate page
• Preview Page now also shows a bigger cover image
• And finally: the Add Comics screen is now a lot bigger!

Today, two fixes for the new Add Comics screen and small fix for the details panel on iPad:

• Slow opening of issue list for a series
  Opening a series to go to its issue list could cause the app to “freeze” for a while, depending on the number of issues in the series AND the number of comics in your database.

  Please note that this was not related to the loading of the large images. Instead, it was just a stupid bug that was introduced during the rewrite of this screen, related to the “in collection highlighting”.

  You will find that all series now open instantly, even with the large images 🙂

• Pull List showed all issues of a series
  When opening a series on the pull list, it incorrectly showed all issues for the series, where as it should of course show recent and future issues only.

• Comic details on iPad: visibility of backdrop
  A small fix/tweak for the comic details panel on iPad, to make the backdrop more visible

For this update, the main goal was to make the cover images in the Add Comics screen bigger, to make it easier to find the issue or variant that you own.

However, while working on that, we ran into many other things that could be improved, so we figured why not? So in the end, it turned out be a serious overhaul of the Add Comics screen 🙂

Here’s an overview of all the improvements:

• Bigger cover images in the Issue List
• The Issue List for a series now opens in a separate page
• Preview Page now also shows a bigger cover image
• New look or series search results and series search “suggestions box”
• Close the Add Comics screen with “X” top left, no more “double back button” confusion

Fixed:

• Crash when adding a comic while the Purchase Price field was active in the Pre-Fill screen

We are working several improvements for the Add Comics screen of the CLZ Comics mobile app.

The main change will be in the issue list, which will now show as a 3-column grid, with BIG cover images. But still with all the info you had before: Issue Nr, Variant, Variant Description, Release Date and a Key icon.

The main goal here is to make it easier to find your cover, your variant, without having to tap each cover to see the full size version.

Fixed:

• The Sort button in the main screen would sometimes not open the Sort Settings screen

Add Screen: Select Collection Status with the extra dropdown button

The Collection Status field has been moved out of the Pre-Fill screen and into a dropdown in the regular Add Screen for quick access. We already added it under the “preview panel” in the last build, but after many request, we’ve now also added the dropdown button beneath the left hand panel:

Fixed:

• Update from Core: could give an access violation error if a comic did not have a grade set
• Options: “Use Field Default” option for Collection Status didn’t work
• Add Screen: Various text and color fixes
