Is Fog of War collective among all players tokens?

As the DM, i just started using Dynamic Lighting (havent used it in session yet).  Question: Is the state of the Fog of War shared by all players? I would have figured it would be per player/token, but as I'm experiencing it, it seems that if one token has seen something, that reveals it to all tokens. Wondering if that is just the result of my DM facing UI or is that how it will appear to each player in game?

Hi Mark,  Fog of War and Dynamic Lighting are two different systems.  Fog of War is seen by all players Dynamic Lighting is on a per-token basis, if the player controls the token they see what the token sees.

"Zen" has not seen around the corner yet, but the other character in the tree has. But the Fog of War is revealed by what the second character has seen.

To see what the token sees use Ctrl+L, or a dummy account in a separate browser (dummy account is useful primarily for setting up DL and making sure GM layer is 100% not happening...iirc even with Ctrl+L the GM sees the GM layer).
