I'm using MapTools 1.3.b87 and was working on writing Campaign macros last night. Campaign autosave is set to 5 minutes, and I regularly manually save when I am done working for the evening. When I connected to my server this morning from a client as GM, I can't see the new Campaign macros, but I can tell that the changes saved because functions and properties on my LIB: tokens are current from last night.
I have had players mention this to me in the past that they didn't see certain macros in Campaign Macros tab, and I usually solved the problem by simply dragging that macro to their token. Is there any way to force a refresh of the Campaign macros tab?
UPDATE: When I locally open the saved .cmpgn file I was working on, the macros are present in the Campaign macro tab, but are missing when I connect to that server as a client GM.

Re: Refresh Campaign macros pane
There's a setting when starting the server. I usually check them all except Individuals Views. I also mention other settings and preferences in HERE under MapTool Configurations with a few explanations.

Re: Refresh Campaign macros pane
Aliasmask, I believe I have "Players Receive Campaign Macros" checked in the server configs, but I will certainly double-check as it appears to be the most obvious conclusion. I do show most of the macros from the campaign, just not the newest 3 or 4 I made last night.
Thanks again. I'll verify the settings checkbox, restart the server, and see if they show up.

Hmm, if only some of them are not showing then Edit | Options and uncheck Allow Players to Edit or something like that.

Hm. I seem to recall that players only get campaign macros when they connect. I.e. they're not updated dynamically on the fly.
Re: Refresh Campaign macros pane
Actually, if you click edit on any of the macros, then they all update, I've noticed.

Could this be triggered by a macro statement?aliasmask wrote:Actually, if you click edit on any of the macros, then they all update, I've noticed.

Double-hm. Then it sounds like the server is pushing the macros to the client, but there's no panel refresh being performed automatically by the client.
I'll add that to the list for b89; it should be an easy fix.
