The tooltip will not display while the token is being dragged.

Some customization options

  • Tooltip themes (Ironsworn/Starforged only)
  • Placement, display delay, display window size and font size customization
  • Show/hide note images for tooltip display
  • Can require minimum token ownership level on notes for display

Troubleshooting and Tips

  • If the hover does not work or causes the sidebar to move unexpectedly try the following:
    • In the Configure Settings, uncheck the Hover Enabled box, reload the screen, then re-check the Hover Enabled box.
    • Try uninstalling and re-installing the module.
  • The Token Note will not display if the token is selected or showing a HUD.
    • This ensures the note does not display when the token is being used to show other attributes.
    • In the Configure Settings dialog, enable the Core setting checkbox for Left-Click to Release Objects to de-select objects easily.
