How to make a small token snap to the center? Everything I've seen in the forums is super old, and I can see it can be done with the stirge token from the monster manual.

I noticed when I use the stirge token directly from the purchased monster manual that the smaller token snaps to the center, how can I make custom tokens do the same?  I have a player with a small familiar and would like to do the same for them as the stirge token.

In your token-making program of choice, just keep the canvas area the same size but make the image itself half as big. For example, I build my tokens to 280px by 280px (so they retain good, zoomable detail but still look nice at the default 70px size). For most tokens, that means that there's just a little bit of transparency at the corners, with the token itself being 280px in diameter. For small tokens, it's still a 280px graphic, but the actual token is 140px in diameter amid a sea of transparent pixels. I don't have the MM addon, but I'd imagine that's how they're accomplishing the stirge's snap-to-center-ness.

Which token-making program do you use?  I use RPTools and tried to do this, and it just wound up being the same size.

Taken from the suggestion  Centre-Aligned Small Tokens on the Square Grid Aaron posted a script to handle this.  Pro users only ;-( The Aaron said: It won't help everyone, but in the interim if you have a Pro Subscription, you can do this with the API pretty easily: on('ready', function(){ "use strict"; on('change:graphic',function(obj,prev){ if( ( _.contains(['gmlayer','objects'],obj.get('layer')) ) && ( !obj.get('isdrawing') ) && ( obj.get('left') !== prev.left || obj.get('top') !== prev.top) && ( obj.get('width') < 70 || obj.get('height') < 70) ){ obj.set( { left: obj.get('left')+35-(obj.get('width')/2), top: obj.get('top')+35-(obj.get('height')/2) }); } }); });
