Using FGU for the first time as a player tonight (normally the DM):

It would be super slick if you could drag your rolls from the chat window directly to the character sheet and have the game automatically drop the lowest die (in the case of 5e, since that's the only system that I'm familiar with).

Feature requests are best added to the wish list; https://fg2app.idea.informer.com/

But you are too late with this one; https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?58064-5E-Character-Wizard-Beta
Note that it is BETA, it has known and unknown issues.

For 5E use the following macro command in chat:

/die 4d6d1

This will roll 4d6 and drop the lowest dice.

For ease of use, drag that macro text to your action bar at the bottom. Then you can quickly roll 6 stats from there, after which you can then proceed to drag your rolls directly onto your character sheet.

Are you doing character creation? There's a new character creation wizard that does handle several ways of rolling for stats: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?58064-5E-Character-Wizard-Beta

It will soon ship with FGC and FGU, I think... and is currently released as a downloadable extension for testing.

Excellent! Thank you for this. On a foreboding note, the DM has requested that we are roll a second character so we will give it a shot.
