API: sendPing does not scroll for non-gms

Hello there, I encountered a problem which is directly linked to this post: <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/6718676/api-sendping-doesnt-scroll-for-non-gms/?pageforid=6718676#post-6718676" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/6718676/api-sendping-doesnt-scroll-for-non-gms/?pageforid=6718676#post-6718676</a> - The problem is, that when using the sendPing function, the pull (moveAll) does not effect non GMs. - Also, when a playerid is supplied, the visual part of the ping is invisible to everyone. sendPing(token.get("left"), token.get("top"), token.get("_pageid"), player[0].id, true); Where player is a list of 1 player that is currently online (me) and token is a graphics object. Idealy the behaviour would be that the pull affects everyone, even non-gms and the ping is always visible independant of whether a player id is supplied. As far as I can tell the problem has been known for 9 months.

Actually, this is a well-known issue that has been around for years. It's unlikely to change any time soon. There is a suggestion to vote on if you want to add your voice.
