/im Steel_Rat:Hold on, I'm flying a kite ... be back in a bit !

heh, this is fun, man I should remove that limitation I just put in ! Fun for the whole family !

Hey, did anyone keep a transcript of that session, sounds like it would have been a riot to read.

No, I burned it with the last of the Watergate tapes.

Hey trevor
I was wondering what level of integration with InitTool is planed for the 1.2 release? At one point you could drag characters from InitTool into MapTool but I can't get this to work using the current builds of both this morning.

I'm pretty psyched about that feature. I've got in some export sheets in the latest Alpha of PCGen and now one can export characters and whole parties into InitTools group file format. It even exports the Portrait graphic assigned in PCGen as the token in InitTool. Being able to move that into MapTool would be sweet!

I just tested with version 1.2.b21 of MapTool and version 1.0.b19 of InitTool and it seems to be working fine. Send me the group that you can't drag and I'll take a look at it.

The dragging to/from should work. Sounds like jay is going to take a look. We'll flesh out the interaction more during 1.3

So 1.3 would import the DMs custom fields with a token? That would rock.

I didn't know draging from MT to IT was even a possibilty. I can't do that either. How's it supposed to work? If I attempt to drag a token on the Map into IT it just moves to token to the place on the map which is out of frame.

I'm not so worried about the custom properties (once you iron that out it will be sweet) I just want to be able to import the token and name at this point.

I should mention I'm on a Mac. Sometimes the are subtle differences in the systems which may cause problems. I've tested the same files on My wifes PC and I have no problem dragging an IT character onto a MapTool map, I can't however drag a token on the map back to IT. So it seems this is a Mac only issue.

Curious.

Interesting. I'll add a tracker to investigate.

btw, how did you demo go ? I didn't get a chance to check it out.

At one time you could drag from the token list to IT, but I think that got removed when the token list became the token tree. You can't drag from the map because dragging is used to move a token.

That is strange that it doesn't work on a Mac. Are you able to drag from GT to IT on a Mac?

GT? Oh, group tool. Yeah that works no problem.

Several times during last nights session both the players and myself had problems getting the spacebar/pointer function to work. It seemed to happen most often after switching maps but not always.

Hmmmm.... then it should work from IT to MT as well. Are you getting anything from the console on either MT or IT when it fails? I don't have access to a Mac, so I can't really test this myself.
