Preview

Is there any way to get some kind of preview that is at least in some way close to what it finally will look like when creating a community character sheet without being a mentor? I'm working on some character sheets (Drakar & Demoner '91, Drakar & Demoner 6E, En Garde!, Khelataar) that I plan to upload to the git as soon as I am satisfied with them, but I would really like to have a bit better preview before I release them.

someone Gift this man a $10 Mentor subscription for 1 month so he can preview Character Sheets he is creating ^ (Just a suggestion. Would that work for you if someone did, or if you paid it yourself? Some people don't realize you can upgrade to Mentor for just a single month, do what you need to do, then revert to regular free user).

Well, you could copy Roll20's base CSS, although you still wouldn't have autocalc fields.

I've had thoughts of doing that, but as the time available for me to work on this is irregular I'll probably end up needing several months before I'm finished with all sheets, and some of those months I might not have time at all, but would still cost me money. But when my group starts playing here on roll20 (we're making a transition from FantasyGrounds) I wouldn't be surprised if I end up paying a monthly fee anyway :)

If you feel like juggling the payments & cancellations, you can sign up today ($10), and hit cancel tomorrow. Your subscription will remain turned on for the full month, you'll have one month to start your work on this. If you've cancelled then it won't charge you again for next month. If you need it again next month, or 2 months later, just do the same pattern again. So it is possible to pay $10 on the months you need this ability and be cancelled, at $0, for the months you won't be on here.

The <div class="sheet-3colrow"> doesn't seem to work just by doing that however. Not sure what CSS you're grabbing, but if you just need the classes provided to produce multicolumn layout, you just need: .sheet-2colrow, .sheet-3colrow { display: block; clear: both; } .sheet-3colrow .sheet-col { width: calc(33% - 21px); margin-right: 30px; } .sheet-2colrow .sheet-col { width: calc(50% - 20px); margin-right: 30px; } .sheet-col { display: inline-block; vertical-align: top; } There are a few other built-in styles (for example, I believe select has a 10px margin-bottom, button[type=roll] gets the d20 image, which comes from the dicefontd20 font as a lower-case 't'), but those are the ones that will affect your layout the most.
I found out that if you grab and include both base.css and app.css and then encapsulate the sheet in <div class="ui-dialog"> <div class="charsheet"> you seem to get most of the visuals correct.
