STAR WARS D6 sheet is misbehaving

Been using this sheet: " Original Author: Timothy O'Driscoll | Main Editor: Andreas J. | Version 2.47 " issue-free for over two years.  This week (Jan 27, 2026) it started ignoring column widths, and unless you're willing to widen the character sheet to the full width of the html sheet, it whites-out half the sheet and makes it unreadable.  I've tested it against two browsers I've tested it against two computers (one of which has never logged into Roll20 before) I've tested it in a  game I run and a game of a friend Thoughts?

The timing implies there is a connection to my update,&nbsp; but makes no sense in the context. suspect it wasn't about what I updated, but that the updated triggered the sheet to use some newer baseline Roll20 styling, which interacted poorly with the sheet's existing styling. &nbsp;Some kind of Pandoras box was opened, and the fix need to be manually adjusting the sheet styling to make work with the new baseline styling Roll20 is including, or somehow unset all /some Roll20 default styling. Given it's just CSS stuff, I should be able to submit some halfway measure hotfix tomorrow, which would noticeably improves the situation . Some sheets have some CSS that set to ignore Roll20's base styling so, should look up how Scott C &amp; others have done this, as it should likely put the sheet in a better place. If the unset stuff doesn't pan out, will have to improve the styling bit by bit in the coming weeks in a series of smaller patches, and then try wrap it up with some refactoring. If fixing this takes longer, I'll post a link to a test game where people can drop by to test updates before they go live. What v.2.47 from few weeks ago updated In bold is the only part in in the CSS that I updated, which seems impossible to have anything to do with the width and dimensions of the elements on the sheet. .charsheet div.main-settings { &nbsp; &nbsp; display: none; &nbsp; &nbsp; position: relative; &nbsp; &nbsp; margin-left: 0; &nbsp; &nbsp; background: black; &nbsp; &nbsp; border: 2px solid grey; &nbsp; &nbsp; border-radius: 0.5em; } This could be that Roll20 changed something in it's default CSS styling sometime between the 2025-01-15 and Jun 3 2024, but that it only applied to any sheets that had been updated since and untouched sheets used their older cached version. Testing so far with webdev tools People can contribute observations by inspecting sheet with&nbsp; Browser Developer Tools &nbsp;and report elements that seem to have odd dimensions along with My results from poking around a bit: if I add .charsheet .master-container { overflow: hidden; } it hides things, so seems styling for the elements inside have changed, and doesn't respect the intend 860px max width of the sheet it was originally designed with. Base CSS for at least label-elements have changed, as adding the below improves how they act, and no longer take width:100%. .charsheet .toppad { width: max-content; } Trying to unset all label styling is a mixed bag if just quickly with wedev tools in the browser, but if added to start of stylesheet and just applied to some properties like "width" label { all: unset !important; } setting a max-width to sections seems to help a bit, quickfix potential. .charsheet .section { max-width: 860px; }

I've been surprised by system updates in the past as well.&nbsp; Not sure if it's related with these issues, but I've adopted to prepending my CSS with ".ui-dialog .tab-content .charsheet" just to ensure my styles aren't overridden by the base (at the time or in the future... lol).&nbsp; Usually it's pretty easy to tell if that's the case using dev tools, but YMMV.

Can look into this sometime tomorrow. You know, I've since tested this with a remote computer on the far side of the planet (same result). But a buddy in Germany opened up his D6 sheet and found no such problem. The only thing I've not changed in all my testing is my account. Could this somehow be an account problem???

Sorry, didn't find more time during the week to look into this. I'll try to slap together a hotfix to improve the situation now over the weekend , in time for the next merge on Tuesday. (Roll20 generally merge sheet changes on Tuesdays &amp; Thursdays) Even if I don't figure out something that completely fixes things, finding some half-measures to improve the situation should realistically be a net positive, even if I wouldn't get too many people to test it before submitting the change. [...] I've adopted to prepending my CSS with ".ui-dialog .tab-content .charsheet"&nbsp;[...] Yeah that became possible at one point, but the sheet was created before that change, so the CSS was never refactored to use it when everything continued to work. And from what I looked at earlier, there aren't any parts of the sheet code that gets overwritten by Roll20 CSS, it's just some changes in the baseline that haven't need to be defined in the sheet code until now. Like label width is suddenly 100% for no reason, when it's width hadn't been explicitly defined in the sheet until now.&nbsp; You know, I've since tested this with a remote computer on the far side of the planet (same result). But a buddy in Germany opened up his D6 sheet and found no such problem. The only thing I've not changed in all my testing is my account. Could this somehow be an account problem??? Never heard of a sheet issue linked to accounts, either way I also experienced the issue. Could be that it's such a subtle thing that it doesn't actually show on all browsers. The sheet is stretched on Firefox, Chrome &amp; Opera when I tried, so issue seems pretty universal.
Did the hotfix go live yet? Our group is still seeing the stretchy sheets.
