So I have been playing with the Windows and Doors Feature on Roll 20 and it is a great quality of life update. However, I was wondering if there is a capability to remove the icons from the token layer and thus limit control of opening or closing the windows and doors to the DM?

There is no option to hide the icons from the player view.  For the second part, you c ould set all doors as locked.  Then only the DM would be able to open the doors. -Adam

Well, damn. I understand where Roll20 were going with the QOL update but the tokens kind of detract from the map. Oh well. Maybe for future updates

Well, If you mark them as secret your players won't see the icon.

I agree that the icons might detract from some maps, but honestly, I welcome the icons! Some maps have doors that are impossible to find without icons. Glad someone pointed out the secret door solution.
