The only thing i miss is the possibility to make the box a bit larger so we dont have to scroll. ;)
Great job!
Maybe I misunderstood your request. Saw today if there are few enough monsters added on the encounter the options modal opens but the extension popup do not expand to contain it. Well Just pushed the 0.3.2 with the fix.
Sure! At first check if the extension is enabled on "chrome://extensions/". I had to add more requested permissions to get the username of the DDB current user and chrome disables the extension until the user grants the new permission set. Then follow the steps:
- On the top left there is a new button "Create Folder", just click on it.
- On the new modal add a name to the folder and click on "Create Folder";
- A new folder should appear on the page. Now click on the folder to expand it. New action options will appear, click on "Add Characters;
- On the new modal select the character you want to add. It is a multiple select, so more than one character can be selected. Then click on "Add";
And that is it, the characters will be on the new folder. You can toggle the new folder, move it up or down the other folders and everything will be save on the extension for you user. So you can reload the page normally or log with another user and then have another folder structure on this other account, etc...
Thanks for the continued improvements. As DM, I'd second Jerry247's thought that adding players from campaign into a master folder would be very helpful. (I have a few NPCs that pop in from time to time, and then the rest are from my players in the campaign section). Really appreciate your work on this. Cool stuff.
I have one minor bit of feedback that may actually not be an issue due to the newest update, but for the session this weekend, it was just easier for me to add all of the monsters in the dungeon to one encounter. This was fine except that any time I would switch tabs, I would have to reopen the panel and scroll to find the monster. Is there any way to make it so the panel stays open when you switch tabs?

Unfortunately there is no way to keep it open (source). But I think it is possible to work around it in some way:
It is possible to assign a keyboard shortcut to open the popup. I think I let the default to "alt + shift + D", but to make sure and also to change it if You want, go to "chrome://extensions/" from browser address bar. And at the end of the page there is a link "Keyboard shortcuts".
I will add on next features list the feature to save the current scroll position on the popup.
New version with the bug fix. Currently is not possible to add folders to the deactivated character list on the campaign. But already planned for next version.
Small issue I ran into, I will see if I can figure out whether it was something on my end or the extension, but it was not allowing me to add characters into a campaign while it was active. I will try and get back and see if I can track down what is causing the issue.
"edit" Unchecked the sort on campaign page which seems to not be functioning properly.

I dont see how to add characters, can I get a hand?

o, shit, nice! Only my characters though/ Not players in my campaign?
For now only "My characters" page. But the other one should be easy to do now. I will think about that.
Thanks for the feedback =}

Glad I read your feature list, was about to start building the folder thing into my plugin as well.
The plugin looks great by the way!
