If this is possible (to display tooltips within a broadcast message), could someone provide an example of this please?

broadcast outputs raw text, so if you include the HTML with a tool tip (can't use the t roll option) it will show your tool tip.

Hmm...I'm thinking more like being able to see the breakdown of somewhat complicated roll results.

Right now, for example, if you mouse over the total to hit roll in my frame work, you see the tool tip which breaks down...

the die roll
the attack bonus
the state bonus
misc bonus

and like 4 other things.

I'm trying to figure out how I could put THAT into your example.

Better example.

Current code puts together the output string like so...


[h : output = MisfortuneText + "<b>" + getName() + "</b> rolls a " + saveName + " save: " + "<b>" + sum(roll,saveValue,modifier,-stateMod,BuffSave) + "</b>"]
[g,s : ouput]


And when you mouse over this, you see the breakdown of the "sum" function.

Is that possible in a broadcast?

Yeah, you just need to write the html for it. Here's an old example of an attack macro I wrote for someone along with some other useful tidbits. All the output is saved to a variable.

Good stuff AM, thanks!

AliasMask, just wanted to give you a big "THANKS!" for pointing me the direction of that link. Although its going to take some work on my end, the end result of these changes are going to be great and there's no way I would have thought to do that without looking at the example you showed.

So again, THANKS!!!!

Glad to be of service

Now if you could just tell me where to get those "WotC Images" that are in your signature line and you'll be the Maptool hero of the week...

I posted new links as the last comment of the thread.

Thanks again AM, these will be very useful when i start digging into my next campaign.
