[QUOTE="morepurplemorebetter, post: 7171306, member: 6788192"] This is a good idea for spell points, and not so hard to implement. I don't know if it is such a good idea for other class features though, because some are correlated with ability scores and could be 0 when you temporarily change your ability score or for some other reason. So I rather have the sheet keep those in at 0 usages. The restrained for that area is because of the companion sheet that is there when the box is not present. I simply didn't find any other way to put it there. If you want a more square companion appearance box, you can use the Colourful sheets :) I will consider changing the "—" to a blank line, but it has the effect of some lines being a lot harder to read because of so much white space, which was the reason I added them in the first place. Making it something that is manually adjustable is a good idea, I will look into that. Having the uncommon things stand out with different colours is an idea, but that is not so easy to achieve. The problem here lies in the fact that I can add that as automatic formatting for the fields, but if I do that every change to the sheet will become even slower than it is now, because than the sheet will re-do this formatting for every single letter you type... (if only Acrobat was more efficient with this, but I have long since let go of that dream :P). Do note that I can only make all the text in a single field appear the same. It is very impracticable, with the Acrobat JavaScript API, to make just a single word bold for example. The second problem with this is that there would have to be a list of either uncommon or common properties that don't get highlighted. I don't really like adding more action boxes. The mystic and the monk are basically the only character classes that would get good use out of them, and for these outliers there is an overflow page and the option to use the Colourful sheets. That is a better idea indeed! I had listed it as no casting time, because it is written as 'part of your move', but your way makes it more clear how the discipline works. [/QUOTE]
