New Update: May 8, 2012

- [Bugfix] Unable to move groups of tokens between layers using hotkeys - There are now "Riley is typing..." notifications in the text chat to let you know when players or the GM are typing. - There is a new setting in the Page Settings dialog that allows you to change the opacity of the Fog of War on the GM side (the player's fog of war is always completely opaque). - [Bugfix] Added in the option to show players Bar 3 on tokens. - Added ability to designate that an aura should be square (instead of the default circle) in the token settings dialog. - You can now give players the ability to edit the bars and auras of a token (you can, on a per-bar/aura basis designate whether players can see the bar/aura, and also if they can edit it). If you let a player edit a bar, they will now be able to use the quick-change radial menu input, as well as double-click on the token to show a subset of the token settings dialog (depending on what permissions you have given them). - Players can now edit the Name and Bio fields of any Characters that they control. If you want a Player to see a Character but not edit it, then just use the "In Player Journals" field rather than the "Controlled By" field. - [Bugfix] Auras should now resize correctly when zoomed in/out. - The player link is now blacked out unless you mouse over it with your mouse pointer. This is to help prevent accidentally including it in screenshots, screencasts, live streams, etc. As always, the Changelog contains information on this and all previous updates: <a href="http://community.roll20.net/discussion/201/changelog-updated-57" rel="nofollow">http://community.roll20.net/discussion/201/changelog-updated-57</a> Thanks!
Excellent news Riley. Darn, you work fast! :)
I was only asleep for 7 hours and all this happened! Makes me sad it takes 8 days to uncomment a line of code at work. Awesome work.
Usability note: the "hover over to see" thing is ... weird. Why not just a "Invite Players" button which shows the link in a popup, and maybe offers the option to send it to email addresses, etc...?
I noticed there's a 'name' field in the 'edit token' box. I've given various tokens names but it doesn't appear to show up anywhere outside that menu - I'm *guessing* this just something you've put in place ready for a future update?
Andy: This was just the quick fix we came up with since we noticed a lot of folks were accidentally including their player links in screenshots. We'll likely flesh out this feature in the future to include more functionality like what you're describing. Paul: Yep, it doesn't do anything just yet, but will in the near future.
