Mecabricks database starts to include a lot of part with stickers which is really great. In the same time, stickers are generally only used for one set. So my question is - How would you organise the stickers in the part database? They are currently sorted the same way as the printed pieces and I am wondering if someone around would have a smarter solution.
I don't intend to change anything straight away but if we have a nice solution around it could be kept in mind when the time will come to find another system.
you could be use the same categories of the minifig parts (by theme of the set where it appears)
Filter by colour perhaps? I know what you mean, and it is getting quite crowded. Or maybe stickered parts and printed decals could be divided somehow?
@Blender4bricks I think that if that was added, it should be a secondary filter or something. I think it would be too hard for newcomers to find a piece they wanted.
If we are consistent and fill in the set number in the Bricklink name, you can already today get all the decorated parts from a set in a search in the workshop, try for example to search for 70808 in the workshop.
Problem is that some stickers may be used in more than one set?
Perhaps there should be another attribute to add set number(s) to the decorated parts?
I also like the filter idea from @Masman8675! The parts with many diffrent decorations(flat tiles) would be nice to filter by color for MOCs.
