Please read the FAQ before asking a question - it contains a lot of answers to Frequently Asked Questions. A link to the FAQ is on the Start page of the program, or I am pretty sure a link can also be found in ForgedAnvil's download page.

My only thought on the zoom issue is it might be that you have the OS zoom level set. I've never seen an issue with Excel when it is set but I have seen issues with other programs.

Hi Forgedanvil! I am loving this sheet and have been using it for all my characters. I recently decided I wanted to make a custom cleric of Lolth using your custom subclass fields. Everything is working as it should be except for the domain spell section. I cant seem to get the spells to activate at the correct level. Clerics do not get access to second level spells until level 3, but if I try to fill in my desired second level spells for my lolth domain cleric, they become available at level 2 on the spellcasting sheet. It seems that the custom domain spells become available at the character level that equates to the spell level. i.e, 3rd level spells at 3rd level, 4th level spells at 4th level, etc... Is this a bug in the sheet or am I doing something wrong? Thank you and keep up the awesome work!

Hi
I think you are replying to my post, thanks for the reminder, i did check and found those files. While i did find the generic answer of no. I did also see reference to subclasses in the custom page. What i cant do is get that custom file to find the fighter subclass?
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Cheers

Unfortunately I did try that route. I've changed the resolution, zoom, DPI, video card drivers, scaling, cleartype, you name it. I also:
Tried Excel Safe Mode
Windows Safe Mode
Making a new User Profile
Hacking the registry for Small Fonts in Excel (Made it so I couldn't see *any* text at any zoom)
Reinstalling Office 2010, 2013, 2016. Repairing (quick and full) installations.
Resetting the Font Cache in Excel & Windows
Downloading all possible fonts for both.
Tweaking the DDE settings in Excel
Tweaking the Hardware Acceleration in Excel.

Strangely enough, I can run a virtual box of my build on the computer and get the sheet to work, just not on the actual OS. At this point, I'm almost resigned that it won't work on this one and I would need a fresh install to do it. I can use this awesome sheet in some way, which is all I needed. I probably won't investigate this anymore, but if I happen to find out, I'll be sure to update.

Thank you all for your time and help!

I am thoroughly impressed by your commitment to fixing this!

I am guessing that this would need to be referred to a Microsoft support specialist, as it seems to be beyond the knowledge of the average user. Like cars these days, figuring out what is wrong and fixing it is often beyond the capabilities of the average user, and tinkering could cause even more serious problems along the way!

Awesome work, congratulations

How can I work on translation PT-BR?

Here is FA's response from NOV 2016. Still valid I think.

As always have fun!
