There will be times that you need to check something on the 'creature list' or 'creature view' screens, but these should be kept to a minimum.I would tend to use the battlemap as a visual aid to my players, so I would  fill as much of my screen as possible with it, to allow players the far side of the room to see. One useful addition could be large font name banners that flash up when the mouse travels over a creatures position to enable distant players to see who was who.I  suggest disabling the 'current creature initiative completed' button when ordering by name, this could save some confusion.  yes thats right, any idea when that will be implemented, (any time you have a couple of spare months I expect <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=";)" /> )I will give you a little time to do some coding, answer other messages,eat sleep, work etc now and see what other pearls I can dig up<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=":)" /> NickT</blockquote>
