Token Feature: Option to Set "Bar Position" to Hidden

The new "Bar Position" toggle is fantastic. Being able to move the bars around, or even overlay text values onto them is really cool. One option is missing, however -- that is to set the bars to hidden , so the bar does not display at all. Some users prefer a cleaner tabletop that presents the fantastic art we have available on Roll20, without the art being obscured by HUD type information.  Hence, a token might look like this:  or without the Name:  *Please know that I am aware the GM can "leave blank" the max-value for "no bar." This does not work for the many tokens linked to character sheets, and it could not be applied as a default system setting for a campaign. So, for purchased modules this method requires deleting values on hundreds of tokens to achieve the desired state.  Here's an explanation of the existing Roll20 feature. I'd like to simply add, "Hide Bar" or "Do Not Display" or something similar to the Bar Position setting. This would allow for standardized display of token bars for all types (mook, PC, linked, etc) using one overriding selector: Stephanie B.  said: The token bar placement is now configurable. On the token settings dialog box, there is now a "Bar Position" setting, where you can select Above, Top Overlapping, Bottom Overlapping, and Below. Please note that you can change the  location of the status icons  for your game if they're in the way of the token bars.
