Sorting the list of custom dice

Postby kelvSYC » Fri Jul 30, 2010 9:35 pm

In the custom dice menu, it seems that the custom dice, beyond dividing numeric and text dice, are not sorted in any particular order. Can we please have, for 2.6, it sorted based on name or description?

I would just like manual ordering per game room. I.e.when the custom dice list is shown in the editor it is possible to drag them into a particular order.

Also a duplicate function for a custom roll, to enable easy setup of several similar dice sets by editing from a base roll.

Just my tuppence - thanks for the great software and it's growing capability.

Though not as easy as clicking a button to duplicate the roll, there are currently at least two ways to accomplish this.
1) Use the Web Editor, you can quickly copy/enter the base formula, then paste into new rolls to make your changes.
2) Within the App, enter the formula entry(f button-> pencil button). Enter your base roll there. Then as you create new rolls in the Favorite Rolls(i button->Favorites Rolls), it will use that base roll in the the formula entry as the default starting point for the new Favorite Rolls.

2.6 will add the ability to copy/paste from the favorite roll table - tap and hold on the cell and the little "copy | paste" popup appears, making duplication straight forward...

Sweet!

And thanks for the tips jazzman... That web editor bit is still on the "scary feature" side of things just now and requires some investigation! :)

(helps if I read the entire message)

The "tap & hold => Copy & Paste" will also work with the custom dice, as well as favorite rolls and roll macros as well.
