Is there an API, or is it theoretically possible to remove the character sheet tab from certain Characters (I would love to remove also Abilities and Attributes, but I think it's a step too far)?  Or better is it possible to set up via API for certain sheets to have "Character Sheet Template"=Template of your game and for others "Character Sheet Template"=None It would be extremely useful in many situations: 1. you can make make map pins easily  2. you can make handouts you can drag on the player area (the players will have edit access to it, but no sheet will be attached to them)

If you don't fill out any info in a sheet, the amount of data it takes up is pretty minimal. I can see how the tabs could be a distraction, but you wouldn't gain much else by removing them or making them otherwise inaccessible. I don't think it's possible.

yeah I was expecting it, but I saw wizards like TheAaron doing things I thought were impossible so... still hoping. The idea was "making a fake handout respectable minimizing the break in immersion" :D

That is a cool trick, but I'm not looking for dungeon crawling. The idea is that I have a corkboard and I made a lot of handouts for the players they can read and modify (in their journal). But I would also love for them to drag it around in a corkboard and make connections, like this Yes, having it such that pressing it would open the handout would be great (and I saw your really impressive trick of hiding the code inside the max value of the aura, I used). But I would be ok just with them being able to "fidget" with the toy.  Note: fake_handout it's really a character sheet, while real_handout it's... well an handout. In general it doesn't make much difference, but in particular if you provide a scenario as a module in the marketplace I think having an handout you can drag and drop or having a character sheet without the sheet tab the player can use can make all the difference in the world in terms of player experience and immersion
