    Hey Matt or one of the other guys maybe you can answer a few questions for me, about newest release candidate.

    1st off I got to complement you guys the program loads super faster after this update. Before when starting it up it would take about a 3 or more mins to load after adding all my picture files, and downloaded content from the store. but it just launch right up, now. That is awesome.

    I love the new character stat sheets, I am sure my players are going to like this also.

    Now to my questions

    1. How do I actual use the Creature Merge feature? Do I give my players a d20pro creature export and they load their d20pro app as gm edit the creature and send it back to me. Then I run the merge, and replace creature in my library or is something else going on with this, like can they edit their creature with player version of d20pro and it uploads the new version when they join game my game and ask to merge their version with the one on my library or game in play? If it can get these guys to start editing there own characters between game session it will save me a ton of time.

    2. I am notice the new add on Oversize Interface element(Touch), what does this do? I am guessing it for players or GM that have touch screen based laptop or other windows\Linux\MAC os non-tablets, to use their touch screen interface in the app?

    Hi KainPen!

    Great questions!

    1) Creature Merge Feature
    This feature is useful if you have collected updated information in the Creature Library (player or GM updated), and have an existing creature on the map. This is especially useful for leveling up characters (after rest - or training - of course).

    1) On Creature needing the updated information:
    - right-click to bring up the context menu
    - Goto Alter > Merge...

    2) Inside the Merge Creature Wizard, use the search function to find the updated character. (In this example we are updating Rumil from Level 8 to Level 9).

    3) We can see the changes from existing (old) and incoming (new)
    (If you noticed different class levels... yes, I allowed a re-spec due to special situation)

    4) We can now review final changes and finish.

    Now the creature is updated on the map and ready for action! :)


    2) Oversize Interface Element(Touch)
    This places an extra large placeholder for fingers to use on a touchscreen to easily resize elements (windows) in d20Pro.
