Is it possibile to show the actions of player (like init, atk, dmg) to the owner of the character, player side?
I mean, to make the player CT window how the DM see

It's only because they can roll during combat from CT, so they can close the character sheets

The players always use the character sheet for rolls; only the DM can see actions in the CT for NPCs.

Thank you Zaccheus
Another question, it's possible to bring back the minis of FGC?

I'm not sure what you mean. Any tokens that worked in FGC also work in FGU.

Sorry, I express myself better. I mean, the mini character sheets, like little windows where are the most important part of every tab of character sheets, like one mini for the abilities (str, con...) and saving throw.
Other were for combat and spells

Ah, sorry. I don't know this ruleset at all so wasn't aware of such things. I do remember however that in early access those were removed, I think. I'm not sure why or whether they'll come back. Given the time frame they probably won't be coming back. BUt the ruleset developers can give you a better answer than I can. (I don't even know what I'm doing in this channel :D)

Thank you for your answers and time, Zach ;)
Maybe @damned or @celestial will read it :D

The only way I know is in 5E with assistant GM extension and only for NPCs that are owned by the player. As your post is not in 5E I now realize - there is no way i know to do that short of writing your own extension to do it.

Without an extension/theme there is not a mini-character sheet. For this ruleset there has never been one so not sure where this is coming from ;)
As to the CT question and the player having a more robust set of options like the GM... the player/client side of the CT is fairly restricted development. Mainly because Smiteworks wants to have a similar look/feel across the rulesets. The DM side is another matter and one reason the AD&D 2E ruleset has all the options it does from the DM CT.

Thank you celestial,
the mini charsheets were present on FGC on Core rulesets
Unfortunately I can't find anything that help me add it in the rulesets, like a reference or something else.
For the CT, I understand what you mean, SW wants the players to use their sheets also in FG.
Do you know, perhaps, how to create (or if its already available) a record (sidebar buttons) were you can create weapon proficiencies?

Unfortunately, we found that the mini character sheets got often out of date and plain broken; because they are yet another thing that ruleset developers need to maintain and they were not part of the default character sheet logic/code. Plus, it doubled the work for any character sheet changes. They were removed quite awhile ago to reduce the maintenance overhead of building/maintaining rulesets. There are no plans at this point in time to re-add them in the core rulesets; and it would be up to each ruleset developer whether they wanted to add that and double up the character sheet work.

I see, so there's no hope, for now.

It can always be built and maintained as an extension by someone in the community, but there are no plans for the core rulesets.

I would try to do that, but I need a reference...
Is the FGC version compatible (coding side) with FGC?
