Tried the new update, and none of the buttons (open, minimize, close) on the dice roller do anything when clicked. I checked the developer console and there weren't any errors.

I like how I can click on a stat or attack and get the roll, cool. But I'm unable to get the popup with the various dice to click that you show in your screen caps. I get a "Dice Roller" rectangle, that looks like the title bar of the window, but the down arrow, minimize error and close X icons are not responsive. I just have this gray "dice roller" gray rectangle at the top of the screen. Under the widget's options, I select "widget starts minimized." That puts it in a little box in the lower left. Clicking on that box does nothing.
I'll probably keep it installed for the click-to-roll functionality on monster stats and attacks, but that actually dice-rolling widget isn't working at all for me.
Hmm...I will look into the widget not working. Seems to be isolated to the CSS interactions of those Unicode letters.The really weird thing is that you get no error in the development console. I currently have it installed on a few computers and they all work so this is going to make it hard to figure out :( .
Can you you two let me know your chrome version and operating system?
Well, I'm currently using Google Chrome OS Version 60.0.3112.112 (Official Build) (64-bit). I can try it on my Surface Pro when I get home tomorrow night.

Rewriting the widget now to use JQuery UI Dialog, will be a breaking change but should not be a big issue as chrome will most likely update your extensions before tomorrow morning haha.
And yes I plan to bring this to all major browsers. Its my next to-do.
Alright, I spent the last 4 hours re-writing the widget UI and interaction to use JQuery just like the existing dice roll results window (as I know that works) and have pushed it to the chrome store. For a short window until your extension updates you will get an error saying to update your extension. Hopefully you are all asleep and when you wake up it will just work haha.
This is why I wanted a slow roll out with just chrome, getting all the different kinds of browsers to work may be very difficult and I wanted to hit a certain "functionality" in one before moving on as even getting a single browser to work can be difficult.
It should look like this BTW (I am still working on the top right header buttons, DDB theme is fighting me a lot):
I am also going to be monitoring service load, as users are starting to use my extension more and more and I add more service calls for new functionality my extremely cheap hosting plan is starting to slow down haha.
*Edit* My hosting company is looking into this as the service is starting to slow down with very light load and its not the code but the backing hardware.
I used this last night and it worked pretty well. I'd like the ability to roll saving throws with it and the ability to roll again once a window is open. For instance, I had 10 drow warriors that needed to make a saving throw against a spell, if I had a reroll option from within the popup, it would have made things a bit easier.
Overall, the extension worked really well. My guess is that sort of functionality will eventually be part of DDB, but until then, this is a good alternative.
Possibly an option to display the Dice Roller vertically? Every page has an empty left margin and I frequently find it covering up something while horizontal.
It depends on what kind of screen you're viewing it on. While I'm playing I have my tablet in portrait orientation and there are no left/right margins.

I will add it as an option to the next version so that way players can pick what works best for them :)
Almost finished the new version, changes were very simple to make. Both ideas have been implemented (reroll on all dice results window | vertical widget style). Will push it sometime tonight so its available tomorrow :)
Alright, the new changes are in, thank you everyone for the feedback! I have made the changes so that they are backwards compatible, but to get the new icons you will need to update your extension (or wait a few hours for chrome to update them for you). Below are some screen shots showing the new design / features.
odd how a community project gets more done than the people i gave 300 dollars to... it has been a month and no new features except for this community tool. Thanks a lot. Best wishes!

I am using the same chrome version :(. I may need to look into the idea of replacing the framework (JsPanel) for that widget with another.

Any chance of making this for Opera? It uses the Chrome engine so hopefully that makes it easier?

I'm still getting the error even though I've restarted Chrome and installed the newest version of the extension.
Make sure your extension is on V1.1.1 (this is the latest version). You can also click the "Update extensions now" button.

I will work on adding a re-roll to the display window, good suggestion.
