Hello !

OK, let's better explain :

#1/ Create a Wishlist from the set 31124 / Small Robot
-- you'll have Black / Dark Azure / Dark Bluish Gray / Light Bluish
Gray / Red / Yellow and Trans Yellow colors for 159 parts.

#2/ Open the wishlist and, into More Option, just select the Color Picker. You
have all the colors of the database...

So, according my point of view, I'd just need 7 colors into the selection
list.

Is this clearer ?

Thank you,

Vincent

Yes, now it is very clear.

What you see on screen is a dropdown list with all colors; this is part of the
user interface. This list apparently is currently not filtered on which colors
are actually present in your wanted list. You would like this list to be adaptive
to show only the colors that are used in your wanted list. Similarly to what
happens in a shop's inventory, showing only the categories and colors that
shop actually has. Makes sense.

I don't expect this to be implemented anytime soon though, as changing this
from a static list (= simply all colors in the color table) to a dynamic list
(= select all unique colors from your individual wanted list(s)) might be a burden
on the system (or the system's engineers).

It would be sooooo helpful. Is this possible to suggest this feature to the developers
as a proposal and wait for their answer ?

Thank you,

Vincent

Hello, is this possible to filter a wishlist with only the colors included into
this wishlist ?
For exemple, my wishlist has just 3 colors : white / green / black, why the filter
colors
implements all the other ?
Thank you
Vincent

Hello, I'm asking again for this new filter ? Is this possible ?
Thank you,
Vincent

When shopping using the wanted list all available parts are listed showing from
which wanted list that particular part is included. That is great. Once you create
a shopping cart the info from which wanted list is gone. It remains lost when
an order is created.
Since I am working with 30+ wanted lists per project, it is really really time
consuming when receiving the parts to reconcile to which wanted list each part
received is. It is especially time consuming since I delete the purchased parts
from the order list so I do not double order them.

I am suggesting keeping the info from which wanted list each part of an order
is.

Is that possible?

Hello, according my experience, I add the wishlist's name into the remark
field. It helps.

Hello -

I see that on my wanted lists I can view how many unique parts are included.
Is there a way to see the total brick count for a wanted list?

Thanks!

There is not, because a wanted list does only specify the minimum and maximum
quantities you would like to have, not a quantity that you could sum meaningfully.

Because I’m searching the same feature, I disagree. A wish list, according the
usage is to complete a wanted qty (min qty) until it reaches the amount. So sum(minqty)
- sum(filledqty) gives you the missing tiles.

Hello,
Is this possible into a wanted list, on the color list of the filter to reduce
the list to the exact list of colors of the wl’s items ? For exemple, my wanted
list has 50 items of 4 colors, the color list should display only 4 choices.
Thank you
