[SUGGESTION] Add Token top map button on character sheet

1452830415

Edited 1452830866
Maybe I'm splitting hairs, but I just was busy setting up a game and thought it might be useful to have a button on the open character sheet that would drop a token on the map. I'm setting up each encounter area as a handout and have links in the handout to the characters/monsters involved. Sure I can go ahead and have the tokens on the map for PLANNED encounters, but we all know how plans go in rpgs. Just like the "pop-out" button for the character sheet, maybe a similar button for dropping its associated token on the map... Thoughts??? EDIT: Ok, I JUST NOW noticed you an already do this with the character IMAGE, but NOT the token. Roll20 guys, is there any way we can make that drop the token assigned to the sheet instead of the portrait image?

Hi Wade. You can drag-and-drop a character's Token, from the Journals list onto the tabletop map. Would that cover what you want to accomplish? If your suggestion is specifically for a button, that is valid, but just in case you didn't know about the drag-and-drop, it sounds like a similar result. Wiki Docs for drag and drop a token from a character journal, <a href="https://wiki.roll20.net/Journal#Default_Token" rel="nofollow">https://wiki.roll20.net/Journal#Default_Token</a> Extra wiki instructions for making sure the token is correctly set-up and linked to the journal before you do the drag-and-drop, <a href="https://wiki.roll20.net/Linking_Tokens_to_Journals" rel="nofollow">https://wiki.roll20.net/Linking_Tokens_to_Journals</a> Hope this helps!
