šŸ’« The New Toolbar is now available for everyone! After a year of development and thousands of pieces of feedback from our users, we’re pleased to roll out the first piece of our UI Redesign to all users — the new toolbar

āž• The “UI Redesign” flag has been renamed to the “Beta Features” flag. Users who are already opted-in will stay opted-in. Page Folders and the New Compendium Search are now behind this flag

šŸ“ For those opted into the Beta Features flag, the New Compendium search will now be the default. There is still a separate toggle to opt out of this if you’d like

šŸ”˜ Pathfinder Second Edition Remaster Character sheet is available as a community preview within Roll20 Characters

VTT Improvements

The New Toolbar has had several accessibility improvements made to it, and now should be more easily navigated when using a screen reader or keyboard shortcuts

The Measure Tool can now be docked into the toolbar, so that you can get it out of your way while you’re measuring things

When using the Compendium inside of the VTT, you should see much faster response times (up to 4x faster in some cases). This will apply to opening Compendium pages from the sidebar search and when using the Charactermancer to create your characters

The Roll20 tutorial has been revamped to work with the new toolbar and has also had fun tooltip videos added to better explain each step

The Measure Tool settings box should disappear automatically when you are measuring if it is undocked

Added functionality to the color picker with the New Toolbar update that will allow you to manually specify alpha values (e.g. you can enter “#00000080” for semi-transparent black)

We’ve added a new feature to the Measure Tool whereĀ the tool will now remember the last state it was inĀ when you switch back to it

VTT Bug Fixes

The Compendium Sidebar search results now scroll the full length of the results every time instead of sometimes stopping early for some users

Fixed a bug where the drop-down to pick dice type was not appearing in the Advanced Dice Roller

Fixed a bug where Dark Mode CSS wasn’t loading correctly for some users

If you collapse the tool’s settings into the toolbar, and then switch to another tool such as Select to move a token, then come back to the Measure Tool, it will remain docked

Fixed a bug where players were seeing theĀ “Clear Drawings” buttonĀ in the New Toolbar

Character Sheet Updates

Marvel Multiverse RPG

Fixed a bug where Origins that limit power options limited options even when a second, unlimited Origin was selected

Pathfinder Second Edition Remaster

Added feedback form link to the top of the sheet, so you can have an easier time sharing with us where to take the sheet next

Added visual polish to roleplay tab, collapsing sections, and added styling to the list of traits when something was rolled to chat

When using a Strike with the Finesse trait, ā€œBonus to Hitā€ will automatically update based on the higher of the two modifiers – Dexterity or Strength

Default character on the sheet is updated

Newly created weapons were updated to display the dice count & type that you entered instead of the default ā€œ1d4ā€

Updated the strikes proficiency dropdown in edit mode to display the calculated value instead of showing ā€œautomaticā€ and Tab number indicator in the feats modal to display animation

Resolved a bug which impacted dropdown selections across the sheet (like skill proficiencies) to not register

General Updates

Roll20 Characters

Creating a new character from one of the four feature sheets will now disable the button once you click it until you are taken to the new character so that you don’t accidentally create multiple new characters without knowing it
