Scrolls on iPad app

Is there an easy way to access scrolls and use them from the HL iPad character sheet that I'm just not seeing? In order to use a scroll during combat it looks like I have to click:

1. Change change or equip gear
2. Magic
3. Select scroll

Now this is where it doesn't make any sense. Where do I go next? Do I select "edit item" or "sell"? Neither gives me good options. If I select edit item the next screen gives me two numbers - neither of which have any title or explanation. If I select either one they ask me to enter how many times this has been used. Both give me unlimited uses (which should be limited to the number of scrolls there are) and neither makes the scroll disappear from my list.

It seems the best answer would be to place it on the main screen under gear or "gear and charges used" and give it a toggle like the regular spells have that deletes the scroll when used up. It could even have a warning screen that makes sure you used up the scroll and want it to disappear.
 
You will want to use my Adjustments addon to fix this issue. It has a new one called "Equipment, Make Trackable on In-Play" that allows you to select the Scrolls and make a tracker for it to display on the In-Play tab. Or on the iPad it will display in the list of other trackable resources.
 
Thanks. Looks like you've put quite a bit of time into that. I was able to download it, install it and then selected it under the 'Hero settings' in HL but I am having trouble figuring out how to use it. Do you happen to have instructions anywhere for how exactly to use the addon?
 
Wow, that was a lot easier than I was making it. I was trying to go under the HL editor and find the data file and.... yeah.

Thanks a bunch. Since you are being so helpful, do you think you could help me with this question:

When creating a stack of scrolls which process is correct?

1. Select "Add Custom Scroll"
2. Change the stack to "add a new stack"
3. Change "number to add" to 4 (or however many you want)
4. Add and close
5. Add a new spell
6. Select spell
7. Add and close

This is where it gets confusing:

Right next to the spell name it has the option to change the number. Is this another place where you could increase the number of scrolls you are making? Only this second option will increase the total cost of the stacked creation. Do I increase the number in both places or just one or the other? This second option places the "x4" next to the spell name instead of under it in bold on HL.
