This helped lazy me a lot! I could move a ton of creatures into tabs that I had received from retired players, and move creatures into new tabs! :D Now my main tab is not so cluttered. XD

I'm a little confused... why are the boxes pre-checked?

Wouldn't it make more sense for us to choose to checkmark which ones we want to move?

Just wondering what the thinking on this is.

It's less work for you. Since four out of nine boxes need to be checked at all times and you'll often move stuff where some selections don't matter (like lineaged/unlineaged or named/unnamed), it's easier to just remove one or two marks instead of adding four or more; and if you want to move everything in a tab, you don't have to do anything about the checkmarks at all this way.

Gotcha! That makes sense now. Thanks, Morg!




Edit:

How do we only move one specific creature from a group of similar ones?
Like, In my Skwiddie Army tab, there are over 6000 frozen, unlineaged, unnamed hatchling krakens. I want to move just one that has a particular percent (and there are several with the same %) how do I specify that one?

I don't think you can.
I was about to say you could move them the old fashioned way, but frick, digging through 6000+?! Ouch. Unless you like, have them ordered by percents(I think default sort will do that) putting them from high to low. Or use control+F to search for the percent if you know which it is.

You will have to search for it individually, I'm afraid, as the mass move option is designed to move large amounts of creatures given general criteria. However, if I recall, if a tab is sorted by default, the percentages will be ranked in descending order, which may make it easier to find that particular creature. If there are multiple percentages, you will have to go by the creature's code.

Don't mind me.... I'm an idiot.

The original "click the tab you want it moved to" is still there. I just got all distracterated by the new buttons.
