[SCRIPT] [expirimental] SyncPage

Someone on Discord asked me if there was a way to show/hide certain tokens for certain players. I ran some tests, and came up with a way to sync pages (and objects on them). This script is highly experimental at the moment. Please let me know if you encountered any errors, or have suggestions for the script. Also, due to API limitations, only tokens with an image that is in your library will get an image on the synced page, other tokens will get the default image. <a href="https://github.com/RobinKuiper/Roll20APIScripts/tr" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/RobinKuiper/Roll20APIScripts/tr</a>... How It Works I couldn't automatically handle the creation of synced pages, due to API limitations, so creating the pages needs to be done manually. First, have the initial page ready, and create a new pages, with exactly the same name as the page you want to sync, add '_synced' as a prefix to the name, eg.: After you renamed the new page 'something_synced' it will automatically start the syncing process and add every object on it to the new page. Every object that is added, changed or removed on one of these pages will also be on the other connected pages. After this you can bring up the SyncPage menu by typing !sync. With this you can show/hide objects on the different connected pages (the "show here" and "hide here" flags will always overwrite the "other" flags). Now you can drag specific players to one of the synced pages to show them only the things they need to see. Config Command&nbsp; - The command you want to use for this script. Reload Refresh - Refresh the synced pages on a reload. True Copy - Will really duplicate the page, with all the tokens, drawings, texts, etc. If enabled it will trigger on duplicating a page. Commands !sync - Shows the SyncPage Menu. !sync config - Shows the config menu. !sync show - Sets the `show here` flag to the selected token(s). !sync hide - Sets the `hide here` flag to the selected token(s). !sync show others - Sets the `show others` flag to the selected token(s). !sync hide others - Sets the `hide others` flag to the selected token(s). <a href="https://github.com/RobinKuiper/Roll20APIScripts/tree/master/SyncPage" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/RobinKuiper/Roll20APIScripts/tree/master/SyncPage</a> Changelog 28-04-2018 - 0.1.9 Added a "true copy" feature. Pages can be really duplicated now.

Interesting concept. I suggest tweaking it so you can add a descriptor to the map page names, so you know that map A is for player A, map B is for Player B, etc.

Very nice. The initial page duplication feature is probably "worth the price of entry". Page duplication in Roll20 is pretty anemic. This looks like it would be a good companion to Token-sync.

Yeh, I was thinking about adding a feature were (if you duplicate a page) this script would duplicate it the right way.

I think there was a page duplication script under development last year. IIRC, the most difficult part was the z-order of graphic elements. Does your script address objects on the GM or DL layers?

I don't know exactly what it didn't do anymore at the moment.

Oh, off course. I'm not at my pc at the moment, but I think it should work. If not I can probably add that.

Forgot about this, but I've added the following line to the first post. " Also, due to API limitations, only tokens with an image that is in your library will get an image on the synced page, other tokens will get the default image."
