[Win/iOS] Conditions UI Improvement

apoapostolov · March 2nd, 2016, 04:11 AM

Hello,

I am new to Hero Labs, purchased Pathfinder days ago, so bear with me if my question is a newbie one.

I am looking for a way to override the UI for Pathfinder Conditions on iPad to change from a text field for duration to a round counter (integer) since in this current format it is very bothersome to count conditions that expire in X turns.

A perfect UI would be two fields, one with value, one with list of time periods (round, minute, hour, day), and a global button to subtract 1 round/minute/hour/day from all conditions, auto-turning off those that hit 0 or less. But I doubt anything can go this far, at the moment. Or am I wrong?

Thanks in advance!

There isn't really a way for users to override the program UI, unfortunately, but we'll take your suggestion into consideration.

Please consider upgrading the Conditions tab of the Play sheet to a personal tactical console with automated turn off conditions that expire, simple ways to set time to each conditions and quick buttons to count down time (rounds/minutes/hours/days).

Thanks a lot!

In my opinion, iPad app is really good UI-wise and was the reason why I converted to paying user.

I agree. Were it not for the iPad app, I wouldn't be a Hero Lab user. I mean, it has an issue here or there, but the LW team has been very responsive to my bug reports and I hope (and expect!) that they will be as responsive to my UI suggestions (I've contributed about a dozen ideas for things to clean up, some very important items and some not-so-important items).
