Hi, a recent update seems to have affected the 5e charsheet sidebars. I checked in a brand new campaign with no other extensions loaded.

Yeah, I saw that. I don't see any mention of them messing with the tab display in their patch notes either. I'll have to dig in and figure out what I need to do to get that back to the yellow/cream color. Thanks for the report.Quote:

Ok, thanks. In CoreRPG... got it.Quote:

Looks like Hearth theme is whacked for tab colors (not sure what else as I don't have heart to root around and find out what surprises were dropped into the mix for chuckles by SW)...
tabres replaced icon in tabs is likely the culprit for the tab issues being black on black (or close enough to it).
It's just a script bug; not some nefarious grand master plan. I just pushed an update to the tabs script code; so that it should correctly pull the color from the "tabfont" asset now.

Not sure that will effect other extensions like Friend Zone - but good enough for me as I don't use those other busted ones based on new tabres definition. This was only thing for me so thanks for fixing it.Quote:

They are kinda hard to read the inactive ones.
They have some logic in the function I mentioned above that sets the disabled color based off of the tabfont color (after I repaired the CoreRPG bug that wasn't handling the color string correctly). If they allow for an override of the disabled color (explicitly), I'd use it... otherwise, we are stuck with what we've got.Quote:

Go ahead and pull from the Forge to get the vertical tab color fix. v2.9.27 is the new version.
So this is a bit of a head-scratcher. The update fixed the tab colors but in my ongoing campaign, the word action is missing from all existing charsheets. It's there if I make a new charsheet. This campaign does have several extensions active, it also had friend zone active (which probably also broke due to the tab changes) but I disabled it. Not sure if there's anything to be done but I thought I'd mention it just in case.

I just figured it out. If you make the charsheet the smallest size the word action disappears.Quote:

With your fix today the character sheet tab labels are clearer and more readable since the March FGU update when they got darker and fuzzier! Also, the bug where initially both Main and Actions tabs were highlighted upon opening a sheet for the first time in a session is gone.
Thanks!
Yeah, they rewrote the vertical tab functionality to be a rendered font instead of being image based. I’m glad it fixed some issues for us.Quote:

This used to be a problem a while back (I'd guess over a year ago) but has been fixed for a long time.
The "View Type" drop down options are also pretty difficult to read...
Attachment 61302
The View Type is out of my control… but I do have a fix ready for the holiday font that I’ll upload tomorrow.
Fantastic! That one matters a lot more. =)Quote:

I can't remember exactly what or when, but I feel like value fields for FX parameters, etc. used to be unreadable but Smiteworks changed something and now they are good... so there is hope.
Hi rocketvaultgames... go ahead and pull from Forge for the calendar holiday font fix. v2.9.30 on 7/15/24 is the new version. Happy Gaming, Justin
Nice thank you it's working.Quote:

I'll work to get all of those fixed up but just wanted to let y'all know that we should be mostly in the clear when the new version rolls out in August.
More Soon,
Justin
Awesome new, thank you for being hot on the case for this too. I love the new themes for FGU but still want to keep using this one because its so good.Quote:

I've got a weird issue with this extension that I couldn't find any information on.
When I load my 5e campaign, everything looks great. But when my players join the game, all of the text font is black for them and basically unreadable. I love this theme and really want to use it for my games, but I need to figure out why my players aren't seeing the same thing I am. Any suggestions?
Sounds like you have something wrong with the setup. Either there is a conflicting extension, or you have two themes running, or you have an old version in your folder... not exactly sure without more information.
I thought it might be an extension conflict too, but I'm not having any issues. It's just my players who see black text instead of the white text that I see. As for old folders, I only see the one folder for Hearth that Forge created.
Also here is a list of all the extensions I have active in my campaign:
Theme: Sir Motte's Magnificent Darkness - Hearth Edition by JustinFreitas
Requested Rolls by mccartysr
Advanced Effects by rhagelstrom
Clock Adjuster by pr6i6e6st
Action Tracker by damned
Friend Zone by MeAndUnique
Inventory Identified by bmos
Always Sensitive Visibility by tsornson
The Forge should leave an ext file not a folder. Get rid of the folder.Quote:

If you wanna test it, make a new campaign and only use the Hearth theme and nothing else... I'd expect that it should work correctly for you and your players (like it does for me and others). If not, then there is something wrong with the setup or the player's caching. Once that has been proven you can go back to your original campaign where it doesn't work and try to figure out the conflict. There is no silver bullet to solve this without going through the discovery to diagnose and learn what's wrong. Lemme know how it goes. If you get frustrated with it, I recommend checking out the new CoreRPG (default) theme... it's pretty nice. Good luck.
Just got the update and starting to work through all the issues...
Is the padding size of story entries something that you can change? It appears to have grown significantly, reducing the space for text while still taking up screen real estate.
The left side padding of the CT seems to have been increased as well.
The new CT Icons for "Item Identified" and "Show NPC" are now virtually unreadable... Can you make them colored Green for ID'd/Shown and Red for Un-Id'd/Hidden? In general for anything that is toggled anywhere, I think Red/Green tinting of some kind would be a huge boon.
There is now a D20 icon in addition to MENU at the bottom of the CT that doesn't seem to align correctly.

Sincere thanks for all you do!
The developer will need to define the new window templates for the ctbox frame. You can find in CoreRPG under common/template_windows.xml.

Yeah, I've seen some of that. I'll get it fixed up as time permits. Thanks!
The item ID and the show NPC, icons are just as readable as the live version haha. Which is not to say they are very readable.Quote:

I put a new version on the Forge with some adjustments to help. There's still room for improvement and the resize anchors aren't right... but this is a step in the right direction. Look for the .31 version on 8/14.
Thanks for jumping on this!
The CT left side padding looks much better now, and the new d20 menu icon at the bottom is gone. I think that is better. IMO it should be either the MENU button or the d20 button, not both. Either is fine.
Combat Timer, Remove Dead, and CT Search are all askew but I don't think that is Hearth's fault.

Story entries still have large(r) left/right/bottom padding which really eats into usable space.

Thank you again and let me know if there is anything I can do to help test.
