    Fantas Grounds Unity Print Tool

    Hi, I really like the map-making functionality in Fantasy Grounds (Unity) but one issue with slowly moving away from Online-sessions to physical sessions, how can I bring all my maps to the table? It's not every time we have access to a big TV screen / projector. I tried the FG Print tool, but it doesn't seem to allow me to chose the FGU folder. Does FG Print Tool not work with FGU? And if not, what are my options in terms of using my maps at the table when we can't pull the maps up on a big TV screen?

    You can't print out maps or indeed any images.
    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

    1. get old flat screen TV and lay on table
    2. use this extension to resize to 1" squares

    Or use a screen capture tool. But it won't print well unless you screen capture lots and lots of tiles/pieces. Even a high res screen is only a few inches across when printed at typical 300 dpi.
