Simplified Token Auras that do not apply tint

I love token auras, they are very useful. But sometimes (specially when there's lots of them) the tint effect they have makes it hard to see properly inside of the auras (and the colors changing ocasionally make it difficult to distinguish the auras themselves). My proposition would be for an option that removes the tint effect from auras while still making it clear what space it covers. Here I have attached two images, one with how auras currently work, and a second that portrays an idea of how this option could potentially change them to improve visibility. I believe it would be a good option to have to improve visibilty for those who need it (like myself).  Thanks for your time!
There was a suggestion for this feature a while back that didn't get enough traction. I hope that this time it gets enough votes to stay live!
I think this would be a great option
This would help greatly with visibility, especially if multiple players use auras for their own features, bumping it.
+1, Although I like tinted auras, they're problematic when you have multiple tokens with the same aura overlapping (they're additive).  It would be good to have more controls over Auras generally, including direct control over transparency (including outline-only as in the OP here) and non-additive auras.
You can control aura transparency by adding a two-digit percentage to the end of the color definition: Ken S. said: +1, Although I like tinted auras, they're problematic when you have multiple tokens with the same aura overlapping (they're additive).  It would be good to have more controls over Auras generally, including direct control over transparency (including outline-only as in the OP here) and non-additive auras.

Yes, they did.&nbsp; And I'm going to be using the outline form for things like Paladin auras going forward.&nbsp; Very nice to have.
Super. I guess we can mark this one as 'done' to reimburse votes?

Apologies i'm late to the game :). With the latest upgrades i'm closing this one to return back the votes!
