VTT ES / Edit Token / Represent that character

Hello friends, I'm trying to update all my players characters so that they are all set up when I drag them from my journal to a selected map. I'm using VTT ES and when double clicking on my characters player in my journal, I can't find the token option "Represent that character" . To have this option I have to drag the token first and then double click on the token when it's allready on the map. This means I have to make the change each time I change map and it's annoying.  The weird thing is that only happens for two of my players, my other two don't have this issue.  Thanks for your help !

First, you wont get any support here for issues relating to VTT ES - they are very strict about only allowing queries directly relating to the official roll20 product, and VTT ES is a third party add-on. You'd best direct requests to the writer's github or browser extension page, or on the reddit roll20.  That said, it doesnt sound like your issue is related to that. The behaviour you are describing here:  To have this option I have to drag the token first and then double click on the token when it's allready on the map. This means I have to make the change each time I change map and it's annoying.  sounds like you haven't set the default tokens for those characters properly. Follow these steps and make sure you follow them in the stated order exactly. This is vital! Drag the character's token on to the map Set the represents dropdown for the token Open the character sheet, and edit it: delete the existing token Add the token on the map as the new default token. Explantion: When you drag a token from a character sheet to the map, it is a copy  of the saved, default token., But once its on the map, it is its own separate identity. When you make changes to it, they only apply to that token, not the one saved on the character sheet. So any time you want to update the token settings for all tokens in the future, you need to delete the old token, and add the updated one. As a pro user, you can use TokenMod to make this much quicker.
That's the solution ! Thank you so much ! :)
