Is there a way to toggle/disable the faction backgrounds on tokens? I find the faction colors handy in the combat tracker, but I find them distracting when using overhead tokens on a battlemap.

Welcome to FG.

Not that I know of.

Thanks for the reply. Not sure if anyone else would be after the ability to toggle faction backgrounds, but I have added the idea to https://fg2app.idea.informer.com/proj/fg2app?ia=135173

How about now, in 2025?

It's kind of like being hit by the Christmas season early, with all the red and green.

What colours would you prefer?

I don't believe the idea transferred to the new feature request board because it had so few votes. But you can always check the feature request list and if the idea is not there, then you can create a new request.

It's less the colour choices (green for ally and red for hostile make perfect sense to me, as it should to most) and more the intensity of their saturation, or the inability to turn the feature off in options, or set it to "Mouse over" (e.g., i.e., mousing over a token shows the alley/neutral/hostile underlay layer for all tokens).

The underlays are a vital GM utility for large-or-complex encounters, at the cost of (personal millage varies) marring the GM's side of the visual-centric VTT experience.
