Using Beyond 20 extension and rolling behind the screen questions.

Hey all, How do I know if my rolls are behind the screen. Is there a setting somewhere? It seems like my last session they could see some things but not all. Depending on what I clicked to roll. Also I'm using the D&D Beyond 20 extension for chrome for some of the creature attacks for the rest I will be using the module CoS I bought here on Roll 20. I just want to try to get everything consistent. Thanks M

In general, whispered content will have a yellow background. As for Beyond20, third party extensions are outside the purpose of the Roll20 forums.
Copy that is there a setting somewhere that makes all the GM rolls whispered?

Here are the ways to toggle this behavior campaign-wide: Always Whisper Go to the Campaign Settings Page Choose "Always Whisper Rolls" under "WHISPER ROLLS TO GM" in the Default Sheet Settings Save Load your game Go to the settings tab on the right and scroll to the bottom where you will find a button that says Apply Default Settings. Press it. Choose to update the Whisper settings. Wait a minute or two for it to resolve. There is a thin easy-to-miss progress bar. Never Whisper There's a bug in the game settings that doesn't recognize "Never Whisper Rolls", possibly because it is trying to write a blank value. The solution is to use Whisper Toggle. The default is public, so once this is set, all rolls should show. Go to the Campaign Settings Page Choose "Whisper Toggle" under "WHISPER ROLLS TO GM" in the Default Sheet Settings Save Load your game Go to the settings tab on the right and scroll to the bottom where you will find a button that says Apply Default Settings. Press it. Choose to update the Whisper settings. Wait a minute or two for it to resolve. There is a thin easy-to-miss progress bar. Query Whisper The default is public, so once this is set, all rolls should show by default unless you choose otherwise. Go to the Campaign Settings Page Choose "Query Whisper" under "WHISPER ROLLS TO GM" in the Default Sheet Settings Save Load your game Go to the settings tab on the right and scroll to the bottom where you will find a button that says Apply Default Settings. Press it. Choose to update the Whisper settings. Wait a minute or two for it to resolve. There is a thin easy-to-miss progress bar.    7. Have fun!
Excellent thanks!

Just to clarify, the whisper settings are attached to each individual sheet, there is no actual game setting. Hence Keith's instructions above for changing the defaults for all the character sheets in the game, then applying the settings to all existing sheets. Note that this will also change your PC sheets - you will have to manually change them back to Public rolls (or the players will), but this is obviously much faster than going through all the NPC sheets to set them to Whisper.

Good point. I should put that in my boilerplate.
I'm fine with all of their rolls being public I'd prefer if all of mine (GM) were behind the screen.
