I find it very hard to add a new deck, which you got anywhere else already. Is it possible to add it in text form via copy & paste or anything? Would be a very nice addition.

Thanks in advance.

Paste an example of what you want to paste, please.

vikingr

I would like to add the deck via an editor. So that I can paste something like that into it:

"4 Inkmoth Nexus
1 Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth
17 Swamp

4 Phyrexian Crusader
4 Phyrexian Vatmother

4 Funeral Charm
4 Disfigure
4 Inquisition of Kozilek
4 Raven's Crime
3 Night's Whisper
4 Victim of Night
4 Wrench Mind
1 Dismember
2 Runechanter's Pike

// Sideboard
2 Relic of Progenitus
2 Pithing Needle
3 Duress
3 Smallpox
2 Infest
3 Rain of Tears"

Ideally sideboard should be: SB

I love this idea I suggested it a few months ago

No, because automatic 'any of' is better ;)

Will this feature arrive anytime soon?

Piotr

No, but as a workaround you can paste it in .dec file and import into iMtG as normal.

Hi.
I tried to import a .dec from pasteboard, but the deck was empty. I copied the .dec text from mtgtop8.com .
Why didn't work it?

Piotr

It is impossible to tell without seeing what did you paste exactly?

Looks like a total mess but I'll see what I can do.

Mytra

Thanks for trying.

I tested also to copy a IMTG-Deck to pasteboard and reimport it. Sideboard is moved to maindeck. If i know what to write to get a card to sideboard, i'm happy and don't need more.
