[QUOTE="4eTurnTracker, post: 5730346, member: 6668719"] Maybe not, but it is described in the "Need help selecting?" option which is available from the context menu in the initiative list. OK. I will have to think about this. The plan is to import the PC powers from the .dnd4e files. Yes, doing all this with low Admin overhead will be the real challenge. Well, this is what I would like to see: First, you select the targets. Then you click on the PC/Monster power to be used. This will bring up the C/E dialog with a description of the power at the top. You then specify which targets were missed (maybe by clicking on them in the target list). If this is a monster attacking then 4eTT could roll the attacks and sort the targets into hits and misses automatically. The C/E dialog will have 2 riders: Hit and Miss (the dialog elements are the same for both), so that both Hit and Miss effects can be specified. The program will try to fill out the dialog according to the description of the power. As the DM, you then "correct" things by selecting damage types, conditions, effects and durations, etc. You then enter the damage. If this is a monster attacking, then the program could also roll the damage. The program will remember what the DM selected for the power and pre-select these options the next time the power is used.
