Change View on NPC Spell Tab
It seems like I should know how to do something as simple as this, but I can't seem to figure out how to change the spell list view from "Summary" to "Actions" on an NPC sheet.

Im not sure if this is the full answer or not but you dont take actions from NPC sheets - you do them from the Combat Tracker.

Wow, not sure how you even got into Summary view!
Perhaps due to an extension?
As far as I'm aware, NPCs are always in Action view.
If you're comfortable editing your db.xml file (back it up first!) you can find the NPC listed in it and add this line:
<spelldisplaymode type="string">action</spelldisplaymode>Last edited by bmos; August 11th, 2022 at 13:19.

Not a DM but I believe he wants the NPC version of the Display button on the Character Sheet.

Thanks for the guidance bmos - i'll try the xml edit. I have no idea how it happened either. I dragged a copy of the NPC from a Paizo "Codex" module into my campaign, and started editing to add some custom effect. When I'm back to my computer I'll try replicating he process - maybe the source has the view setting coded that way. The source didn't have any spell classes defined - i had to create one.
