One question about the character sheet

[vahnstrivs]

Hi you all.

I'm new here and i've been trying to read and learn as much as I can about modifying the ruletsets.

I took the d20 ruleset and the character sheet. I tried to modify the Abilities (strength, constitution, etc) changing it's names but I saw that I cannot write more than 12 letters. If I change the name to "communication", for instance, then the last letter "n" is hidden.

It took me a bit of time to realize that the square for the Ability score was the problem and I tried to see if I could "move" it. I tried to make the text appear to the right of the square instead but it didn't work.

I bet that the answer is easy but I couldn't figure it out. Anyone can help?

Each control in a window has a box that describes its location in the window. You use the "bounds" and "anchored" tags to describe where the control is located and how big it is (i.e. width and height).

If you set the text of a stringcontrol longer than can be displayed in the box, then the text will be cut off at the edge of the box.

In your case, you can increase the label width by updating the width tag of the "abilitylabel" template in the charsheet_templates.xml file. If you increase the width greatly, you will start seeing overlap with other controls on the character sheet.

If that is the case, you will need to start adjusting multiple controls on the character sheet in order to move them out of the way.

Thank you

I was able to change things at last and it's looking good. :)
