FEATURE - A top-level indication that conditions and/or Adjustments are in effect.

I'm primarily interested in the iPad app, but I imagine this would come in handy in the desktop version as well. Basically, my issue is it's easy to forget that temporary conditions are in effect. For example, last night my gaming group ended things with a paladin Bless spell in effect. Character gets saved and next week, things start up again with the condition still in effect. This is what I want, but after encounter is over, it's really easy to have forgotten that last week conditions were applied that now need to be cleared. It would be nice for the "Conditions" and "Adjustments" buttons (and/or tabs) to present differently as a visual cue when underlying items have been set.
 
This would be a great feature for the desktop version. :) Maybe something listed in the In-Play tab or at least change the color of the Adjustments and Conditions tab (such as using the color blue).

Another nice feature would be a button that would disable all adjustments and conditions, so that we don't have to uncheck numerous checkboxes after the character rests for the night.
 
I would also like to see something that indicates active conditions - I have definitely forgotten about a Bless effect or the like in the past.

This would be nice.

Currently I use the time and true method of at the start of the game night I tell all the players to double check all conditions and adjustments to make sure they are still valid. I know "old" school but it works. :D
 
Another feature I would like to see is the ability to manually un-set conditions. The example that comes to mind is "Flat-Footed". It is automatically set for all creatures at the start of a combat, but there are situations in which some should NOT be flat-footed, or should lose the condition outside the initiative order. As implemented now, the condition is enabled, but the checkbox does not have a checkmark and does not respond to manual attempts to clear it.
 
The iPad already shows which adjustments are active including spells. Look right above the weapons.

I can't believe I missed that. Okay, maybe just make it a little more obvious. The little red exclamation mark used on the desktop app is a great eye-catcher.
