    Options / Facing Indicator not working correctly

    Select: Options | Token (GM) | Facing indicator
    When set to 'On', the direction indicator doesn't appear on the character icon. The mouse-scroll rotation is locked and rotation re-enabled when Facing is set to 'Off' as expected.

    I can second this. Facing indicator doe's not show up when turned on.

    The token itself is locked from rotation as per expectation though.

    Not sure if this is a bug, or just not implemented yet.

    EDIT: This was in the PFRPG2 ruleset for me.

    This is on the list as [FGU 373] I believe.
    If there is something that you would like to see in Fantasy Grounds that isn't currently part of the software or if there is something you think would improve a ruleset then add your idea here https://www.fantasygrounds.com/featu...rerequests.php

    Hi Guys - running FGC 5e various campaigns, and updated on Thursday 26/11/20. When I drag characters / NPC onto the battle map, the facing indicator appears as expected, but when I (or any of my players) hover over the token and try to use the mouse wheel to rotate, the map zooms in and out, but the character facing does not change. We can select the radial menu and use the rotate right / left icons (which takes a while). The issue is apparent in pre-bought campaigns, downloaded maps and self-generated maps. I haven't changed any of my settings, so tried locking / unlocking tokens, still the same. Any thoughts or help?

    I think you have to Shift mousewheel for token rotation (or alt , or ctrl)

    I'm having basically the same problem 6 months later: FGU isn't displaying the facing indicator when it's on. It also shifts 12 directions around a hex instead of 6.

    Can you please provide more details? The link in my signature may help. Please include a screen shot or two as well as the logs would help.
    Thanks.

    The facing indicator is only applied to tokens added from the combat tracker; as these are assumed to be creatures.

    Tokens added directly from the Assets bag are not assumed to always be creatures (i.e. decorations, spell effects, etc.), so do not have the facing indicator.
