Sugestion: Pop up information on tokens

If the GM only window could pop up when i put the mouse over the token, would be great, and if i could put a image to pop up also would be awesome Don't know if i could do this kind of thing other way. Thanks.

Thiago C. , what kind of information would pop up? Right now you can shift+dbl click or ctrl+dbl click to bring up the character sheet. You can also dbl click to bring up the token's edit window which has a GM information section. - Gauss
It's more like for the monster stats or tokens that has some rule, like DC checks, move penalties. The kind of stuff that is already on the token edit window, but could be easier to see if it's just appear when you hoover the mouse over it. I actualy have a page that i put all the monster i'm using, and to see their stats i have to copy all the data from the 4Ed Monster Manual and format it. And to use it, i have to dbl click every time, scroll down, in my computer the screen is small, so all the stats don't fit and so on. Would be great if i could put the image from the with the stats of the monster, cause it's already made very compact and card like. So i could see all the information i need from my tokens in a clean and smart way, without poluting my screen. For the Characters Tokens i think it's not needed, the character sheet fits well, and in general the players already know theirs stats.

As a workaround, perhaps you could use the deck of cards? 1) Put stats for the monster you are using in an art program, save it as a JPG and upload it to Roll20. 2) Stick it in your deck of cards 3) Deal the cards to yourself 4) Click on the monster card anytime you want to see it's stats. - Gauss
Sounds like a pretty good workaround Gauss. I might have to try it. Thiago: Something similar has been suggested before. The point of the suggestion wasn't stats but better portraits but the same mechanic. When you hover mouse over a token or click it active additional information shows up in a pop-up typish way. Here's the link: <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/1480/token-portr" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/1480/token-portr</a>... BTW +1 to being able to get some (graphical would be nice, rules/stats would be nice...) additional information this way.
