QuickFieldToggle v1.0.0 1.0.1

Just commenting to make sure you're aware. You CAN alter Custom Fields via the Bulk Edit menu. Select several games at once you want to adjust the field on and then press CTRL+E and in the field drop down look for "Custom Field:..." (without quotes) and then set the values in the controls that appear after. Plugin like this would still reduce clicks required, but wanted to make sure you were aware.

@C-Beats Thanks for that note, but thats actually part of what this plugin solves for. Each of those bulk edits requires about 8 clicks to make a change to a single field, and then allows you to change subsequent fields with a reduced number of clicks on those same titles. Additionally, this method requires you to interact with the bulk edit window which, for large libraries, can be fairly sluggish. 

As an example, I have a Play Queue with several buckets: Now Playing, On Deck, and Backlog. I only want titles to be in one bucket at a time. This plugin allows me to select a game (or games), right click, and hit "Move to backlog" which will set backlog to true and both Now Playing and On Deck to false. Two clicks to change three fields on multiple titles all at once.

I'm not saying its for everyone, but if you use Custom Fields heavily especially for state management, this will save you some time!

Just making sure you were aware, the plugin description listed out the process flow for using the Add/Edit screen a single game at a time. Wanted to make sure you knew that wasn't the ONLY way to adjust custom fields. I personally use custom fields quite heavily in my build and haven't noticed a HUGE time sink when saving (against a library of around 15k games) but as I said before I do agree a plugin could speed things up. Just making sure you knew you had options and glad you were able to find one that works best for you and your workflow (and sharing that option with others).

@C-Beats Thanks for sharing! I've also updated the plugin description implicitly call out multi-title support, which is, I think, where this really shines.

Just wanted to say thanks for this amazing tool! I've recently been using custom fields and this has helped in filling up information so much. With how simple it is to get fields information added now I am probably going to be using custom fields even more. My latest use has been for RetroAchievements, I have a custom field for new and updated sets with the month/year released and also one for every set developer so I can quickly see all the sets they have released. 

Thank you @Retrovania64! Love to hear how others can use this. If there’s any thing I can improve on, let me know.
