View Full Version : "Always Visible" with Line of Sight

Pardon me if this is a stupid question but I'm just getting started with adding LOS and walls to my maps, and I'm wondering if there's a way to set part of an image as "always visible."

Basically, the map has a legend in the corner, and I want the players to be able to see that legend clearly, while still using LOS on the parts of the map that show the actual area.

Not really - unless you draw the walls around it.

I dont think that would work either unless they had LoS to it...

If you are using the shared vision option, you could always put los walls around the legend and place a temporary dummy character there

That's a clever workaround! Good idea!

I should have said 'extend the walls around it'.

I would copy the legend, create a separate image and share that. They can add a link to their hotbar and consult as necessary.
