Add Player Access to Pages

I'd like to be able to grant players access to pages so that they can access them independently (without having the GM move them). GM's should be able to set which pages players have access to and the player level of access (similar to handouts: read, edit, no access).&nbsp;&nbsp; Example Scenario:&nbsp; A campaign has a splash page that players see between sessions. The player wants to see a world or regional map for the game that lives on a separate page.&nbsp; Problem: Players have to wait for their GM to become available to move them or use a handout that wouldn't be as large as a page view or benefit from pins.

+1, this is a great idea.&nbsp; I sometimes use pages for large maps, which don't display well in handouts, and it's always been a pain that my players couldn't see them unless I switched them to that page. And there are battle-maps that might make sense for them to always have access to: their home base (bastion), a market with the new 2024 sheet "shops", etc. But this does need to be independent of the ribbon.&nbsp; permissions would be for things they should "always" have access to, like the splash page, or the map of their bastion, or a world map or whatever.&nbsp; But the current play map is going to keep changing over time, and that should remain under ribbon control (for example, today, if we pause mid-session, I move the ribbon back to splash so my players can't see the map where they "currently" are and move tokens in between play sessions).
+1 i need this especially with the new feature of Map Pins
+1 I would definitely support this.&nbsp; I have also had maps that I would love for players to be able to see in all of their glory, where handouts just do not really do the trick.
+1, this would be so helpful! As someone who runs conspiracy games, it's so frustrating that my party can't access the "cork boards" they built on previous missions
This would be very good for investigation games like Call of Cthulhu or Delta Green or Trail of Cthulhu.&nbsp; Giving Agents/Investigators access to a cork board screen for their own perusal during a game would reduce the load for the GM to have to move the party there whenever they need to make a linkage. I guess it could also work well for fantasy based games with maps that might need reviewing.&nbsp; This could remove some of the information that gets loaded as handouts...and helps clean up the journal.&nbsp;
I run a game of dnd in which I've homebrewed what could only be described as tech trees (think of bg3 tadpoles). These are each maps and I've added tokens with tooltips so the players get easy access to the information of each stage of progression. Simallar to that there's also a map for a book, which can be investigated for two hours to learn hidden information and the map for it even shows the DC via the meassuring tool. If my players could go to these maps themselves that would be very handy, because then they'd have a better understanding of their options. So I would really love players to be able to move themselves to maps that are marked as visible to them.
This would work, cuts down on amount of Handouts of maps, and would allow collaboration on the sheet.&nbsp;
