Adding Text to Maps/Images
Is there an easy way to do this? Either built in or an extension?
Specifically I'm looking for a good way to add GM-visible room labels to a map without needing a stamp or image for each bit of text.

It is not currently possible to add a text layer inside of FG; but it is on the way. Meantime you can create a webp file outside of FG, in Photoshop for example, with whatever text or icons you want and add that as a layer to the map inside FG.
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

I regularly add text to my maps when playing Kingmaker. So it is possible now.

We have a version in our development branch that allows us to draw text of different sizes to a map and then move them around, change them, style them, or resize them. It is still in internal testing and there are a few additional things that need to be worked out for it. We are loosely targeting a release during Q4 of this year.
