QUICK ADD


The Quick Add form can be accessed two ways: From the   button on the Filter bar for Characters, Groups, Locations, and Items Navigator tabs, or when creating a new item of any of those types on the Issues & Stories window.

This form acts as a fast option to begin creating records by applying basic data templates and classifications.

At a minimum, a name must be typed into the textbox. Choose a template from the dropdown, if applicable, and click on the  button to add the template items.

For Groups, Locations and Items, there will be Classifications available instead of templates.

Check the checkbox if you want the text to be available for the next item you create. Leaving it unchecked will clear all the textboxes after each item is created.

Click on  to create a new item. If this form was invoked from the Add Characters window on the Issues & Stories form, the Quick Add form will close, otherwise it will stay open for more items to be created.


POWER GRID GLOSSARY (CHARACTERS ONLY)

If the selected category is Characters, the  button is visible at the bottom of the window. This is a quick way to alter Power Grid stats added from templates.

Select a radio button for the Power Grid stat you would like to change.

Double-click the appropriate item in the list to add it to the text box.

Select additional Power Grid stats as necessary and follow the preceding operations to add multiple items.

Click  to copy items to the clipboard. Then Highlight the Items in the QuickAdd window you want to replace.

Either Right-Click and choose Paste from the menu, or use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+V to paste in the copied data.


If you are unsure of the item you need to create, you can search for similar items by clicking the down arrow on the Find Existing Records dropdown:
