That screen shot shows "3d XX 7", not "3d XX 7 vs 1" so it's stripping on the vs 1 for some reason (probably due to the spaces or lack-there-of).

I'm waiting for a few more bug reports to come back, and then I'll be submitting a build that includes fixing this in the next couple of days...

I've notice that Scootmien is using the dice bar to make his rolls and not the favorite roll. this explain why he is rolling 4 dice but the result info only showes 3.

Using the dice bar the vs1 does not work under any circumstance.

In a formula vs1 only works when the target number is not displayed. For example 10dxx vs1 works but 10dxx7 vs1 does not. The former does use the default target number of 7, so both formulas should be identical.

Thanks Tektat04, you're right that an Exalted formula works from the favourite tab but not from the dice bar.

Gandreas, glad to hear you are fixing this in the next update. This is a great app and I've recommended it to all my gaming groups.

Hi Gandreas

I've also noticed another bug in that when using the Exalted dXX formula, the dice colour changes to yellow, whether I like it or not. Even using the colour character in the formula makes no difference.

It's the way the dice bar works. The dice bar treats all the dice as individual dice that gets added up together. That is why the vs1 gets discarded. Gandreas has a good explanation here: http://boards.gandreas.com/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=950#p3720

As for the color issues you have been experiencing. I have not been able to duplicate it so I can't help there.
