Frequently Asked Questions
Why aren't font colors changing?
With a font color choice included in the text editor, GMs can choose the color of the text in Notes for both Characters and Handouts. We automatically switch the text with the default font color selected, but we want to make sure we honor the color choice whenever that choice is made.
Why is the switch right there?
With the agency provided by Dark Mode the option was best determined to be front and center. If encountering a hard to read text color, a character sheet that isn't optimized for dark mode, or an old note you haven't read in a while, you can swap back without needing to edit text or change character sheets.
