Introduced in November 2021, the Update Key Info tool is one the biggest and most popular features of the Comic Collector software. It automatically gives you crucial information about your collection, that is, which of your comics are major keys, which ones are minor keys. Of course, it also tells you why, for example: first appearances of characters, deaths, cameo appearances, first team appearances, origins, iconic cover art, etc…
However, since we introduced this feature, one of the most requested improvements has become:
“After updating my key info, I would like to see WHICH comics were updated and WHAT has changed.”
So we sat down and improved this feature, with a nice new Updated Key Info report, that shows you exactly what has changed.
The report shows:
- Which comics have now become a new Major or Minor Key.
- Which comics have been updated from Minor Key to Major Key (or vice versa)
- Which comics are now not a key anymore (downgraded from Major or Minor to NOT key).
- Which comics have had their Key Reason or Key Category updated (highlighted in blue text).
- Finally, at the bottom it shows how your total numbers of Minor and Major keys have changed.
Fixed
- A sorting bug that occurred if you used the “dash” format between issue and variant
