Is there api access to the ruler tool? I'm trying to script a token macro for missile attacks and spells. I want the button to be pressed and a query for a target, but while the player is selecting the target I want the ruler took UI to show distance from his token to the cursor. Ideally, I could pose a query to the ruler tool and confirm this distance and see what's a valid (in range) target.
The API has no access to the UI.
If you want an API that does measuring, I have this one: https://github.com/shdwjk/Roll20API/blob/master/Measure/Measure.js It doesn't display a visual, just outputs a table of distances.

Ok. I figured out a work around. I'll just have the tokens in range display a small aura with a color to match their range classification. I saw somebody put out a script to make an aura gradually shrink so maybe I'll make it pulsate.
Ty for the info.
Ty for being so active on the forums Aaron! Seeing your face on another thread just gave me an idea for an script to set max movement distances lol
