Ping

From Roll20 Wiki

Main Page: Tabletop Overview

If you click and hold down anywhere on the map, radar rings sprout out from the point of your mouse cursor. These Pings are visible to everyone currently playing the Game. The GM / Players' current user color is applied to each Ping to better identify who's indicating what. This tool can help indicate points of interests on a map.


Shift+Ping

Shift+Left Click Example

A GM can force all their players to view a certain area of the map by holding the Shift-key while Pinging. This is very helpful if you have a very large dungeon map to explore. When a new Page is loaded, the Tabletop's view is automatically set to the upper left hand corner of the Page. If you have the Fog of War enabled, your players might be greeted with their entire Tabletop filled with black fog. Instead of the players panning around the Page to locate their tokens, a Shift Ping leads your players right where they need to be.
