More "dynamic collection" filter options
The options currently there are already pretty complete, but it would be nice to also have:

- The "library favorite" tag (games that are also in favorites)
- The ability to exclude tags (instead of only games)

Good work on the library so far though, I'm actually surprised that steam decided to fix the old one.

Yes we need more options. For example :
- choose the behavior when multiple tags are selected : "AND" and "OR"
- exclude a tag
- exclude another collection.

I agree that they need an exclude option. Like check, uncheck, exclude for the filter list.
I wanted to have a dynamic collection for vr games installed locally, and a dynamic collection not installed locally. May be I'm over thinking this. If I don't use the 'installed locally', then it shows both installed and not installed games. Mostly it is a nice to have feature.

The 'AND' and 'OR' choices are a MUST!!
Dynamic collections are nice idea but as said above, advanced filtering is must else it's basically collection per 1 tag.

Also I do not really like how games immediately jump to the collection, without giving me an option to chose multiple categories

Also filter for unplayed games could be switched with filter of play time, because if you have played the game for ~1hr, you have really haven't played.

All of this! Definitely agree. My first suggestion, in fact, when I saw the dynamic collections, was to be able to exclude tags, as well as include them, but all of this is amazing and welcomed feedback. Can't wait for this awesome feature to be fleshed out as per the wishes of the community! :)

Absolutely need an exclude filter, I'd like to make collections that do NOT have my VR games, for example.
saintstoltz Nov 1, 2019 @ 8:17pm 
Yeah, definitely want an OR function.
_I_ Nov 1, 2019 @ 8:50pm 
agreed

making each of the filters tickbox go from [check] - [no] - [clear], would be an easy way to filter many games

When I opened the new UI today and saw there was "Dynamic Collections" I got super hyped. Then I tried filtering. Now I'm pretty disappointed since I can't make a list of say games that are ONLY singleplayer. Like, come on, it's showing games like 7d2d, Eco, Space Engineers... These games are basically multiplayer. It's like saying CSGO is singleplayer because you can play offline with bots.

But there are many more use cases, and I know for a fact that it's not hard to implement and/or/not options. Code could be done in a day or less even, and then design.

Either way, I'm happy to see progress on the Steam UI.

I subscribe to the OR and to the exclusion of tags and/or collections
Xon Nov 5, 2019 @ 4:51am 
Yeah I would definitely want this, it is surprising it doesn't exist.

Very good idea. I just noticed the new Steam Library UI and I love the Dynamic Collection option, but I'd like to remove some of the games from the list.

For example, I like to have my VR games in their own list, and I never liked that it would separate them into a VR category, but still have them listed in the Installed category. The ability to remove them from the Installed and just keep them in their own VR category would be awesome.

Still need to be able to choose between applying filters as AND or OR
FuriousDC Dec 8, 2019 @ 2:52pm 
Definitely need this. I had to manually create a collection of my flat non-VR installed games.

Logic operations are really needed to make proper use of the dynamic collections
