Customized legend for token status icons

1561964196

Edited 1561966122
In the Roll20 playspace, we all know the 55 status icons for tokens. These are the 7 colored dots, a big red X and 47 other symbols that can be used to indicate and remind of things like poisoning, invisibility, panic, defenses, spell effects, combat conditions and so on. The thing is sometimes GMs and players forget what a particular icon means a week or so later. Also players and GMs forget the consensus on what a specific icon means so, they assign different icons to mean the same thing. The way to fix this lapse in memory or consensus is to allow the GM to populate a short text description to each icon that can be seen by everyone. Every time they open the status icon popup, this legend or key can be seen. The key can be customized and changed from GM to GM and from game to game. Only the GM should be allowed to do this. It's not nearly as critical getting a method to sort pages into folders but it would be nice. What do you folks think?
