[edit] Planned Updates

Beacon SDK is a new version of sheet development under work, which as of April 2024 is fast approaching to be available for closed beta testing.
[1]

It would enable devs to use features previously limited to mods, and to more easily integrate modern webdev frameworks like Vue & React in sheet development.

[edit] 2024

[edit] June

  • Use of external fonts is disabled due to potential security issue. The standard websafe fonts available in Roll20 & use of Google Fonts is not impacted. - June 4th
Going forward, when making a sheet in legacy sanitization(LCS), you will only be able to use fonts that are served up by the Google API. This will leave you with 2 options: (1) You can switch to non-legacy sanitization(CSE) and update the sheet from there, or (2) use Google Fonts for your sheet instead.

[edit] April

  • fixed issues with @import Release Note for April 27, 2021(Forum)
    • if a @import exists, it seems it might result in roll20 ignoring the first instance of the next css class in the file, workaround is to add an empty, "sacrificial" version of the class first that will be eaten up, and the one after will work normally
  • Most initial bugs with Character Sheet Enhancement have be fixed and the framework is now stable, and better than LCS.

[edit] March

Character Sheet Enhancement(CSE) sheet update was fully released, expanding the html & css things that can be done with character sheets. This includes more options to make char sheets look good on the Roll20 Mobile app.

Before the release of CSE, the Char Sheet System changed so rarely there wasn't a big need to separately keep track of changes, but starting from CSE there where number of changes that never ended up in the official Changelog, so this page got started.
