I'm new to playing Pathfinder online via Fantasy Grounds. I apologize if this question has been asked before, but when I searched for "1d3" in the forums, I got ZERO hits (and it wouldn't let me search for just "d3" -- too short of a keyword).
Question: How do I get a d3 or d2 for die rolls, or for the creation of attack actions?
Context: We're playing Rise of the Runelords, and my character acquired a firepelt cougar as a pet after some misadventure. The GM instructed me to go ahead and set up a character sheet in-game for the pet. I tried copying over the basic details from the NPC entry for "firepelt cougar," but when it comes to setting up its attacks on the action tab, its claws deal 1d3 damage. There is no "claw" weapon for me to drag and drop that I could find, so in order to create the damage portion for the "claw" attack action, there's a section on the left side where I'm supposed to drag and drop the die type used for the damage roll. I've tried, and it won't let me just type "1d3" or any such thing. The trouble is that there is no "1d3" on the desktop area for me to drag and drop into that box. If there is some alternative way for me to enter a value into that box (some sort of ALT- or SHIFT- or CTRL- key combination?) I haven't yet figured it out.
I realize that I can just type "/die 1d3" in the chat window to get a 1d3 die result, but that's only a "solution" if I give up on the action tab.
P.S., is there a "FAQ" I should be looking at before asking questions like this? (I found the Fantasy Grounds FAQ, but that appears to be technical, on the level of installing/running the program, handling subscriptions, network issues, etc., rather than the details of actually USING the gaming platform.) If so, where can I find it?
Thanks!
