Making the 'blue' 'looking nice' would make the text look awful.The form fields are layout as they currently are to make all the things you put in them fit to the rest of the sheet. Either fit the text to the lines (the overlapping fields), or fit the "X" in the checkbox (the checkboxes). Changing the size of the field would change the size and shape of what's in it along with it. Making the checkboxes as big as the white area would make the "X" so small it would just be a dot with a lot of white space around it. Moving the overlapping fields so that they adhere to the lines/box the text has to go in would make the text not align with the lines/box. Moving the top of the field down would also move the top of the text down with the same amount. So the options are: have it work as it currently does or have better looking 'blue boxes' (as you call it, you can make it any colour you want in Acrobat) that have text in the wrong place. I choose the former <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />BTW, if you don't like how the blue looks, just turn off the colouring of form fields <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> I don't like looking at the sheet with all the form fields coloured like that, it is rather distracting IMHO. You can edit this feature in the settings of your Acrobat program (CTRL + K and go to "Forms").Great idea! One that I had while making it as well. Two problems with that:1) where do you put the modifier fields so that it is still clear to what DC they belong.2) when printing to greyscale, how do you understand what score goes with what DC? I see the arrows, but they are really tiny and break style with the rest of the sheet.But I'll try if I can make something work, because it is something I was struggling with while implementing this feature.I'm a bit taken aback by this post. Why do you think I'm "calling the thousand separator a 'decimal seperator'"? It clearly says decimal separator right? You choose the thing that separates the integer from the fraction, not the thing that separates the thousands from the singles. Note that it only has effect on how the number display if you are not editing the field. You can always use both a comma and a dot as decimal separator when entering data. Acrobat has no option to select a space as a thousands separator, so that is not an option I can offer. Because numbers in the thousands will be very uncommon in the sheet, I choose to have the thousands separator by dependent on the decimal separator (i.e. a comma if the decimal separator is a dot and vice versa). Only the XP and money fields are likely to have numbers in the thousands. Using the, as you call it, 'common' version seemed to me as the most common thing people would want. The only extra option that would be viable in Acrobat would to offer the option to have no thousand separator, but I felt that writing code for that was a waste of time, and I still do.</blockquote>
