[Suggestion] "Modify" button improvements, Export/Print character sheets

I've grown extremely fond of the new pathfinder character sheets, and I petitioned for couple of minor changes that were out of the scope of the sheet developers, so they referred me to this section of the forums: COPYPASTA MAGIC! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MODIFY BUTTON: That big red button only functions to allow deletion of ability entries/inventory. Could this instead be modified to allow us to MOVE entries Up or Down on the list? I'm anal-retentive to the max when it comes to how things are listed on my player's sheets, and the only way to do this how is to simply add a new entry (to the bottom, ugh) and copy-paste it down. This is a minor nit-pick but I would love to be able to SLIDE abilities/inventory items around as I please. EXPORT FUNCTION. My players love physical sheets. I have told them to print character sheets and manually transfer them. They unilaterally decreed that I petition to have an Export & Print character sheets straight from Roll20. Is this something under consideration, or even a possibility? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks in advance! This service is the best as my group of players has moved and become increasingly distant from one another but now we have a way to hang out and do what we love much more conveniently!

Modify sounds good in theory, but I know it'll be a headache when people don't take their macros into account when they reorder them. I'm probably the only one who doesn't like the export function. The character sheets aren't really designed to be used outside of Roll20, and as soon as they're printable people will flood the forums with "printing bugs". I'm not really sure how much of a headache it'll be to make it uniform across all the sheets either, since all the sheets are created by different people as a volunteer effort. If there was a way to make them printable without authors having to add much to their sheets it's probably worth doing but I still think you're better off using an editable PDF sheet or Herolab.

That doesn't mean it's not gonna be an issue. If the answer is we're going to turn a blind eye to that, that's fine.

I've been looking for this feature as well. Previous thread here; <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/950389/print-option-for-character-sheets#post-1070186" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/950389/print-option-for-character-sheets#post-1070186</a> I found a temporary solution to printing sheets by creating a "BIG" macro that calls all the character sheet info I want to print. It will display the info in the chat window. You can copy the chat text and paste it into a word processor for formatting. Print out a copy for your players
I now understand the trouble these changes would cause. I rescind my petition. Thanks for the fast reply! Awesome work, can't wait to see the "NPC Sheet" updates coming soon!
