Showing health bar but not Numerical Value to Players?

Is there a way to designate a Token to show a bar to the players but not show the players the numerical value of that bar if they click on the Token? I would like it to be seen visually how badly hurt a monster is but I don't want PCs to know what a monster's total hit points is at the same time.

Unless a player has control of a token they cannot click on it. Only when they click on the token will the numerical value come up. So if you do not give the player control they cannot see the numerical value. If you would like to test this for yourself, set a token to someone besides yourself (the GM). Then to go the settings tab (top right corner), scroll all the way down and then Re-Join the game as a player. - Gauss
Ah ok. I wasn't sure if they would be able to see that or not. I'll take your word for it, all I needed to know.

The re-join the game as a player button is a very good way to see the game from the perspective of the players to confirm what they can and cannot see. :) I use it all the time to make sure my maps are right. - Gauss
