Keyboard Shortcuts

[Brynnan]

Is there a list somewhere of all of the "Hold the CTRL", etc, keyboard shortcuts somewhere?

For example, holding down the SHIFT while clicking your damage will do auto-crit damage.

Is there a list of all of them?

[Trenloe]

Not a dedicated list. They are scattered throughout the Wiki user guides.

Maybe someone should create a stickied list of them all, I choose you Trenloe!

Seriously would probably help the new folk and if someone wants to send me a list of them I'm happy to create a nice neat formatted list

I'll sticky the thread, that's it. I do too much already, time for others to step up. :)

Yes you do! Well, someone might beat me to it, but I'll work on this. Might take a day or two to get time to do it, but I'll work on it!

Ok, this isn't pretty but rather quick and dirty. If people find it useful I'm happy to clean it up. Please let me know of any corrections. The first tab is for CTRL shortcuts and the second is for SHIFT shortcuts. I tried to include a category as well. Let me know what you think. The link is to a file in my dropbox account (excel).

I did learn a new one for me for PC character sheets which is, "Wherever you see a little '+' at the top right of any box - such as initiative, perception, saving throws - you can give your character a temporary bonus or penalty to the score. To do this hover your mouse over the box until you see a hand icon. Then, whilst holding down the CTRL key, move the middle mouse button up or down. A small bubble will appear with a number in it. Any rolls you make will now include that bonus or penalty. This can be removed by repeating the procedure until the bubble goes away."

Nice, I'll use that when you get it in its finished form. Any idea how much if any of that is 5E specific?

[Gwydion]

Its a good question. I'll look closer tonight and tomorrow but my gut is that maybe 15-20% but that is just my gut. I'll look at it closer and let you know as I work on cleaning it up.

Good work. Keyboard shortcuts are all in CORE I think so 100% of them are the same across all rulesets.

Not where I can test this to figure it out. Can someone explain what this does?

When the GM drags an item to a character portrait on the desktop it is just shared with them (not added to the PC inventory). If the GM holds down ALT while "sharing" the item it will be added to the PC inventory.

Nice, now I don't have to drag it to the inventory :) Thanks for clarifying!

Alt + roll 1d20 = spin dice :p

[Nylanfs]

NOOOOOOO, now the secret is out!!!! :)

[Nickademus]

Not if a mod can get to it quickly...

I'm feeling mischievous - I let it ride...

Sorry, if I shared some secret :hurt:
Now I feel as dumb orc which looks in old wooden chest full of broken spider webs, dusts,
broken glasses, oil flacons and another kind of garbage. Investigated by rogue and other 4 party members before.
This orc only reaching inside this chest (seemingly Miss. Fortune stays by him with her
hand on his arm, and happened what nobody one expected. He got 20 + [-1 WIZ] = 19 in roll on Investigation - SUCCESS!)
and this dumb orc ... pulled out and hold in his shaky and dirty hand red ruby (Alt + roll 1d20 = spin dice :p).
He really don't knows if this "Item" from red glass is valuable (secret that nobody has bothered to know until this year's snow),
or not. Maybe somebody more Intelligent and Wise prepared this kind of "Breathtaking traps" inside our FG chest, who knows?

And anyone brave enough to order reached into this chest and pulls out: a) a Bug (that will help us detect and correct actual vesion,
make this nice FG project be better and better) or b.) rare treasure as reward in any forms. (which cleverly developers
from time to time left for us).

It was a happy day for our orc. Day that can maybe no longer happen again,
but he began from that day to believe in miracles. And these are possible only in the FG world. Try it maybe you
can find another one :) and you will experience an indescribable feelings.

Thank you for reading brave heroes and monsters from our nice FG world.
Wish you lucky rolls at anything you are going to do.

This thread is AWESOME

Now I just have to learn how to use them properly :rv:

[flynnkd]

Double clicking the picture of something on the CT will centre the map on them.

[birdskull]

Is there a shortcut for going into mask mode.

[Zacchaeus]

Is there a shortcut for going into mask mode.

Not that I am aware of.

Hi. I'm using a wireless keyboard with a touchpad to manipulate the player screen on the TV. No middle mouse button or wheel. I'm wondering, is there a way to map keys to the zoom function on images?

You can remap some of the keys on your keyboard to the mousebuttons (inluding Mouswheel, -up and -down). To do this you would need a tool (not included with FG). I sadly can't recommend any because my keyboard already has this feature build in with the driver software for it. You can check if your does too. Otherwise I'm sure a simple google search like "remap keyboard" will find smth for you. First thing that showed up for me was SharpKeys, but like I said I don't have any experience with it.

CTRL also changes the pan icon in the bottom right corner from a pan function to a zoom function.
