[QUOTE="Pfhoenix, post: 4446927, member: 71723"] 1) Not just the way they do it now, but the way that the majority of the people are familiar+comfortable with 2) mixed with #1, but add that the program presents other information as well (see power descriptions for example) on demand in current format without the need of yet another page to flip to 3) My time is severely limited, and it must be prioritized for the maximum return of invested effort. Duplicating effort, a lot of effort I might add, on something that has been brought to my attention only once out of countless other usability reports doesn't immediately warrant high on the priority list. Should others also request such a feature, more weight will be given to the idea. Don't be so quick to try to pidgeon-hole me; you'll find yourself very mistaken in doing so. I started playing AD&D, got fairly familiar with 2E, played a small bit of 3E, played a lot of 3.5E, and really enjoy 4E a lot. Throw in Rifts and all sorts of other games (both p&p as well as computer-based). Change doesn't scare me - change for the sake of change is pointless, and misguided change is worse than the status quo. That is, of course, unless you were trying to claim my lack of experience (if I had a lack) was relevant to my unwillingness to see beyond the current format. You must understand - one of the highest design decisions for Character Sheet was keeping with the official character sheet layout in order to maintain a format that most people would be familiar and comfortable with. Any deviation from that must be justified by both quantity of user feedback and effort to accommodate those users. One person calling me short-sighted and calling my decisions "assumptions" fulfills neither. [/QUOTE]
