How can you get a roll highlighted if you roll a 1?

Hi, I've created this macro: /r 1d6!+?{Modifier} But as a 1 is an automatic failure in the game I'm creating, currently I have to hover over the score to see if a 1 has been rolled which is a bit of a pain. I think it's possible to highlight the total score if a 1 is rolled on the d6, but don't know how to do it, so I would be very grateful if someone could tell me how to do this. Many thanks. Graham

This should be happening by default - normally the minimum roll on die is highlighted. It is subtle, and is easily missed - I'll post a way around than. You can force it by changing your macro to /r 1d6cf1!+?{Modifier} Be warned however, that any extra dice from the rollup will also get highlights on 1, so you might want to use /r 1d6!!+?{Modifier} /r 1d6cf1!!+?{Modifier} If you find this shading too subtle, make your rolls as inline rolls by wrapping them indouble brackets instead of using /r, like [[1d6!+?{Modifier}]] Or, probably better [[1d6!!+?{Modifier}]] You can also change that modifier so it has a default number, to avoid some accidental failures, like [[1d6!!+?{Modifier|0}]]
Many thanks, I'll give this a go when I can. I would mention that the 1 itself is highlighted, but not the total score. But as you say, maybe the highlighting is so subtle I can't see it.

With the /r system, only the number changes, and making the standard text dark red is very subtle. Putting it in an inline roll makes it much more obvious.
Great, it works! Thanks so much, really appreciated.
