Going through the list of keyboard short cuts.. I can never get this to work ... is this no longer a function ?
*[CTRL] + Drag and Drop Damage or Healing from chat to a token or player/npc on combat tracker.
This will reverse whatever was done originally. Example: Player is targeting wrong monster and rolls damage. You can hold [CTRL] while dragging the roll from chat back to that monster and it will heal back the damage done.{Does the reverse if it was a heal} (Just be aware that if they have any effect like unconscious this will not remove it) Saves you from doing math and removing wounds etc..
When ever I do it, it just does more damage... not sure if its me or not ?

I'm curious about it too - I was reading this page this morning:
https://fantasygroundsunity.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/FGCP/pages/996640055/Basic+Actions#Number-Fields
and I found the same comment about Ctrl + Drag that would supposedly negate the number being dragged - but I've tried it several times, and all I get is that it keeps reapplying the damage to the character, instead of negating it.

This currently only works in FGC, not FGU :) It is a known issue, but is not yet fixed :)

FGU allows you to reverse the value from the chat via right mouse.

It's more awkward to use, though, especially with multiple targets. 10 months after release we really do wonder if this is on the agenda anymore?

Hm, I was recommended to use the Control-Drag to reverse damage several times and never found out it didn't work in FGU. I just thought I was always doing it wrong, or perhaps it didn't work correctly in the Mac version for some reason.

This still doesn't work in FGU I believe, but you can Right Click in the chat box -> Negate Value, then Drag-n-Drop that value onto the target.

CTRL-Drag has never worked in FGU. It was a function in FGC that has never been intended to be made available in FGU. Instead, right click negate the damage and then drag it.

If you’re playing 5e, this extension is extremely handy:
