Seems like there was an update to the character sheet this afternoon which isn't working. Scrollbar in the “actions” window doesn’t work, text just scrolls off bottom of page for this box (and skills).Can’t click on Description, Notes, or Extras.Other fields like HP can’t be updated; edit character anvil doesn’t work.
Was working fine this morning, now it's not. (If it matters, I am using Safari as my browser)
Edit: Long rest also does not work, though short rest does. On characters that do not have custom backgrounds, I can click background, but not notes or extras, and things like the HP field, long rest, and character anvil do not work. Just wanted to note the observed difference... otherwise, seems the same on all characters.
Edit2: If I click inside the "actions" window in the right place, I can usually get it to respond to the scroll on the mouse. Still can't get any of the above items to work...
Manage Equipment and Manage Spells buttons don't work... :( That's the first part of this bug that is truly bothersome. Could still edit from the character creation pages...
Played with it a little more this morning. It is literally everything to the right of a certain point on the page doesn't work. As I move the mouse to the right, I can see that buttons (like short rest) are selectable, and then it will change to an arrow and I can't select. Move down, see the same signature... on some of the equipment pages, I can see buttons that are selectable, and as the mouse moves right, it turns into an arrow. Even affects stuff at the top of the page, like the bell for messages and the account name. Only occurs on the character sheet page, and only started yesterday afternoon.
I"m using firefox and everything's working for me. Try any other browsers you have on your computer, to see if it's just a Safari issue. Then try restarting, and possibly clearing your Safari cache.
my proficiencies and languages from my custom background are not showing up on my character sheet
Liocious, I've seen this one too. If you create the custom background from the start, it works - if you change to it... it doesn't. That is listed under the (long) list of things they are working on with the new Tasha's updates. Sometimes you can force it to work by manually selecting and then de-selecting proficiencies. Alternatively, create a home-brew background with what you want and that seems to work.

I've tried restarting, clearing cache, etc. But it is very plausible that it's just a safari issue, which means it will be low-priority for them to fix. I will download Chrome or Firefox and try them if it annoys me long enough and they don't get around to fixing it.
OK, a work-around for Safari users who have this problem...
It has something to do with the width of the window - it can't deal with stuff wider than a screen width setting. I'm a computer guy in real life, and I wouldn't even know where to start looking for this glitch in the code.
So... make your window narrow with the character sheet. It will then display more like the website on a phone, which is that you have a box in the corner to select the different pages. With the narrower window - everything works.
The interesting part is, when I did this and then made the window wider again - everything is now working normally. So, with a wide window, when I opened the page it isn't picking up some initial variable properly, but when I change the window width, it forces it to read it.
I think this is as "RESOLVED" as this weird little glitch is going to get - the developers have a long list of things to worry about.
