Version 1.46 Released
V1.46 27 May 2015
- Massive overhaul on Race, Background, Class and Feats section - mainly to improve readability (increase font size and changed to Arial font)
- Added options to show/hide sections of the Race, Background, Class and Feats section in the Start sheet - affects all sections through the tool
- Added option to hide details such as languages, tools, etc...as these are shown on Character Sheet I. This optimizes the viewing area of the Race, Background, Class and Feats section(s).
- Added spell lists for Arcane Trickster and Eldritch Knight to Spellcasting sheet in the Class Feature section. These lists display Wizard spells that are not already part of the Subclass spell list.
- Corrected Sorcerer Draconic Bloodline displaying the damage at level 6. It now displays (correctly) once you choose a level in this class.
- Certain cells in the Start sheet were not visible until they met certain criteria. These cell are now greyed out until they meet certain criteria. Helps with compatibility with other platforms.
- Various bug fixes, spelling corrections and improvements
Enjoy!

I don't have hardware running iOS but at a guess this functionality is not supported. The format menu should appear when you select the image (menu option might be called Picture). Recommend to use Excel 2010, 2013 or 2016 preview to change the image. If you like you can add a feature request for "replacing an image" in Excel for Mobile Devices (maybe through the app?)
Once changed it will be fine to view on iOS

I had the same problem using Excel 2007 on Windows.

Re-uploaded 1.46 of the transfer tool. this should fix the spells being transferred
Wondering if this will eventually include the new Races/Spells etc that came out with the Players Companion released with the Elemental Evil Story line. Players companion can be found here

These were added at the end of March 2015 (around v1.25ish), let me know if they are not functioning. There is also an Elemental Evil skin available, refer to the first post of this thread for details

Will look into a way to add ritual spells for specific classes to the Spellcasting sheet. As they can only be cast as a ritual spell there is no need to prepare these spells. Looking to add this to v1.47

First of all, GREAT character sheet. I have my whole group using it and they all love it!
Secondly, is there any way you could add a separate sheet or section for the Battlemaster fighter maneuvers? Currently they show up in the sidebar on character sheet 2, but it would be awesome if they would show up on their own page like the spellcasting sheet.
Again, I love this character sheet.

I am a big fan of ForgedAnvil's sheet and use it for all my characters. However, I also use other sheets in tandem.
For the Battlemaster I recommend filling out Joshua Fredrickson's Battlemaster Fighter Character Reference Sheet here at EnWorld.
For some of my spellcasters I also use morepurplemorebetter's Spell Sheet Generator (also requiring Microsoft Excel 2010+) here at EnWorld.
Joshua Fredrickson also has a Druid Wildshape Sheet here at EnWorld.
Both the Battlemaster sheet and the Wildshape sheet are single pages designed to be added to whatever character sheet you are using. morepurplemorebetter's spell sheet generator makes a fine PDF file with easier to read spell lists. I wish it had a little less red on it but it matches up well with the partnered PDF character sheet form in the download.

Hey thanks for the links! I will check these out.
i created this account for 2 things
first your character generator is AWESOME the most useful tool i have found for 5e character generation.
and second a quick suggestion why don´t you ad the Minotaur to your character generator (if somebody already suggested it ignore this)
i ad the link to the wizards pdf that describes them and again your character generator is great

Thanks for the feedback!
All information presented in Unearthed Arcana is highly volatile and might be unstable, hence I'm not keen on doing the work to implement races, classes etc from these documents. Once more official detail of the Minotaur is released I'll implement it (as with any new races, classes etc.)
In the meantime, you can implement your version of the Minotaur in the Custom sheet under Race.
Let me know how you go with the Race implementation and if you have any issues or suggestions

Font Size
IS there any way to increase the font size on the summary page? Just that when I've printed it out it is very small!

At the moment, the short answer is no. Which area are you having trouble reading?
The summary page is designed to be a single page to keep things simple for an NPC and for the DM or player

The Race, Background, Class & Feats section is the area I would like to increase the font size just so it can be read better by the players. To be honest the whole of the summary sheet would be nice if I could increase the font size as this feature (Summary Sheet) is really useful.
