Hello fellow hive mind! I was wondering about a couple of
stuff, and was searching around first before posting, but I either
didn't find anything, or it was old posts that only partially helped (I
may ofc have missed it when searching, but... at least I tried :P). Let's begin by mentioning some base stuff first! :) I run the main build of Firefox (so no Waterfox or other stuff) Windows 10 Home Currently a Free R20 account, but will get Pro soon. Just want to set up a much non-Pro stuff as possible before I get Pro and start playing with API and DL. I got VTT Enhanced Suite like 2-3 days ago, so trying that out too. I am -not- an educated coder/programmer. The macros I use are found in posts, and then tweaked with trial and error. Oh, and even if I am
going to get Pro... there would be massive bonus point if the hopefully
potential solutions doesn't require Pro/API/etc, but works on Free
accounts as well. So... I am okay with both Pro and Free solutions, but
would prefer Free solutions first hand. :) Aight, that's hopefully what you need to know before we start digging into this. I hope, otherwise just ask. :) 1: Width of the Npc-template Easy question, but no idea if the fix is easy, hard or impossible. :P Basically,
some traits or actions are pretty long and wordy, so naturally I scaled
the width of the chat window, but noticed that the action box doesn't
want to scale with it, which is a bit... annoying. So I wanted to know
if there is a fix for that? I use the basic macro %{selected|repeating_npcaction_$1_npc_action} for this one. Any suggestion/solution here? I kinda like the design of that template as well. 2: Prompt for full Spellbook This is a trickier one, and.. as usual, I have no idea if it's possible or not, or easy/hard, and so on. The
image shows 2 different things. I have a macro for saving throws which
pops up that Input Value prompt where the person can choose their
attribute. It also shows a macro I have for a full spell book, and in
the chat box we see the result of said macro, where it pops up taking
up a lot of space. What I would like, is to find out if it's
possible to instead click the macro button and have a prompt pop up,
just like with the Saves. So it doesn't take up a whole lot of
chat-window space for the player or dm who uses it. To make it even
trickier (and thus probably even more unlikely that it works), is of
course that detail where the spells are sorted in spell level, and if we
manage to make it a prompt, how would we deal with that? Like, maybe
a prompt that has one drop down per spell level + cantrips? Or maybe a
prompt that places a "dummy" selection between the levels to categories
them? Sort of like this: --- Cantrips --- A spell Another spell --- 1st Level --- Pew Pew Spell Or
maybe there are other suggestions that are even better? Maybe it works
in general, or maybe it required API? As mentioned, I am on Free now,
but I will get Pro because those API's do look very delicious. 3: Default Template, less space, non-local Okay, this one I actually -did- find some information about, but only half ways. As
we can see on the image in question 2, that spell book takes up a lot
of space, and it would be really nice if those pink buttons could take
up less space. I did find this post from Jan 19 last year, which mentions a trick with Stylus, which I guess I have to look into. <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/7129900/css-makeover-for-default-template" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/7129900/css-makeover-for-default-template</a> But.. This part is where I got stuck: "If you want all your players to see a modified roll template, you will
need to change the definition in the css for the sheet. I'm not even
sure if you can change the default definition this way, or just the
sheet dependent templates." A.k.a I would like my players who
runs these macros as well to get this modification as well, without
having to install and modify a bunch of stuff themselves locally. I just
couldn't post about it in that post since it was locked ages ago due to
the 2-month lock thing, so I'm asking here instead if someone looked into this more, and if someone managed to find a way to fix that?. :) And if someone did, could I get a rundown of how to do that? Since I'm not good enough at html/css to know what do do based on " change the definition in the css for the sheet" :) That is... if it even works of course. If not, then I guess a follow up question would be, suggestions for alternative ideas? 4: /w gm versus /w {@character_name} Okay, last question. Long wordy post I know, but.. many questions, and trying to provide as much info as I can. :) Basically,
I have this Stats macro as seen in the picture, and when using it, the
chat produces a useful block of PC stats, if I need to know their AC,
HP, and so on. But, I also want them to be able to use it to help them
keep track of several stuff, without having to open the character sheet. My issue here is the following: /w {@character_name} means
that if the PC uses it, they will see it in their chat, and the DM does
not, which is good, because the DM might be doing other macros and
rolls at the same time. But if the DM uses it to find stuff out, they
PC's will get it in their chat as well, which might interupt other PC
chat stuff. /w gm however, is basically the very same, but
opposite. If the dm uses it, the PC does not, but if the PC uses it, it
will pop up for the DM as well. What I would like, is that both
the DM and the PC can use it, but it will only show for the one who
does. So if the DM clicks it, only the DM will see it, and if the PC
clicks it, only the PC will see it. How would I fix that? I'm
guessing there might be some kind of if-dm-do-this and if-pc-do-this
kind of thing I can use, I just... have no idea what that would be, and
haven't found anything when googling around. There
we go... sorry for the long post, I just wanted to consolidate it into 1
post instead of 4 separate posts that I would need to keep track of
with my ADHD scatterbrain. Easier to keep track on 1 single post! :P Thank you all!
