View Full Version : Token title, health dot too minute to see

I am not sure if this is the right place to post but here goes...

Using the 3.11 test release and the 5E ruleset.

When I set the tokens to show name title and a dot for health, they are so tiny as to be unreadable. If I zoom in I can see them - just - but they are just too small to be usable.

Any tips?

Cheers

Reset your Token Zoom on all tokens and Set a Grid. If your Grid is SMALL like 5-25pixels you will prolly stll see similar behaviour.

The grid is 50 pixels. I can get the dots to show up as they should but only with manual scaling. As soon as I drop another token onto the grid, all the ones that have been set manually revert to the new scale and the dots become tiny again.

Have you set SIZE for your Actors?

What size tokens are you using?

I'm not sure what that means.

My token size varies but the one I looked at now is around 300 x 300, so I assume on a 50 x 50 grid that will shrink everything down?

Yep, that looks to be what is happening. Try resizing a few sample tokens to 50x50 and see how the icons appear then.

Hmmm. Although it made the dot marginally easier to see - it is still very small - the name titles are no easier to read. I changed the icons to be 50 x 50 and then reset them in the NPC sheets and added them the CT/map again. I'll keep playing around with this but I have had maps recently (using the same icons) that showed the dots large and the titles were easily readable, so something has gone awry...

Remove all of the tokens from the map. Remove the grid. Re-draw the grid, making it 50 pixels. Add a 50x50 token from the combat tracker. See if this makes any difference.

Perfect! Thank you.
