MapTool 1.1 Development Release Build 10

Post by **trevor** » Tue Jul 25, 2006 1:20 am

Figured enough time had passed, and at least a couple new things have gone in, so here it is.

Build 10 (7/24/06)
* Adjust for gaps between stamp edges
* Add toggle to show/hide measurements
* Show Last Path token right menu option
* Revert token to last position
* Initial integration with InitiativeTool
* Add new quickmap: cracked mud

Of particular note is the last path stuff/revert move stuff. Take a look and let me know your thoughts on menu position, use, etc.

Note that the zipped versions are not being updated correctly, this is a bug that was introduced with a recent build change. We're working to correct it, for now just use the webstart version.

Let us know when this changes...

It is my prefered method as a typical RPGer, I like to collect things

And for me because I typically have to turn off my firewall to use Webstart.

Until the link gets fixed, you can use this shortcut:

As a side note, something that may not be obvious, is that you can actually select any number of tokens and say Show Last Path and it will show the path for all selected.

Also, the path goes away when the selection changes, so you could Show Last Path, then switch to the freehand tool, and start drawing things in relation to the path

Well I have to be honest; I was hoping for more stamping functionality - at least a stamper icon to click on that will allow me to stamp like crazy and put maps together relatively quickly. Hopefully stamping will come soon because time is against me for having maps ready for start of session.

I really like the fact that we can Show Path - that is great! Thanks!

Free size I am a bit confused on. Yeah, it makes the token actual size but do we have the ability to size it? "Free size" sounds like it gives us the ability to size it.

Middle button Waypoint not here yet? I thought you said you already added that feature and it would be in next release.. Drat

Revert Last Move: Two Thumbs Up!

Still now way to move stamps? Drat

Another great update Trevor! Always appreciate the hard work and dedication you put towards the project! Hopefully we can tackle some of the stamping issues soon.

Heh, sorry dorpond, it's right up there on the feature impl list, I had just gotten some of the features done and thought I'd get it out so it could be commented on.

Free size was intended to allow free size, but as soon as I added the Free Size menu option, I ran into the problem of not knowing how to build the interface to support size and rotation (I think there was a forum thread to that effect somewhere). But I've got that figured out now, so development is ready to move forward. Expect it very, very soon now

Oh, no need for that! You are by far the best developer I have ever worked with and the fact that you work so closely with everyone and love what you do just makes me want to shake you hand and say "thank you".

No need to say sorry to Dorpond, that is for sure!
