10 Roll20 Shortcuts

[@Ardenithar]

Me: Oh, I know these first few. I don't think it will be a good video. Nick: Shift-Z for Mood shots Me: o_o Nick: Shift+Dbl Click for Bio, Alt + Dbl Click for Sheet, Sheet Dbl click for minimization. Me: o_0 Nick: Q + Right click and what the player sees. Me: o_Q Nick: X to preview movement. Me: X_X Nick: Image macro. Me: Q_Q This went from "Captain Obvious" to "I can show you the world" real quick. Thank you, sir.

[@theGhoulman]

With you... 0_0

[@bmac9090]

That mood shot tip was really good.

[@TheDigitalDM]

These are amazing! I can't believe that after 4 years of using Roll 20 I didn't know them. Going to greatly improve my games!

[@NickOlivo]

Glad you found it helpful!

[@JasonHauser125]

Shift Z works, that great, I didn't know about that, and sticking pictures in the GM layer is way way way easier than making a handout

[@KazumiKiguma]

Note: You don't have to right click to leave a waypoint for the movement tracking, you can just press Q again.

[@NickOlivo]

Cool, good to know, thanks!

[@Blck0Knght]

The reverse is also true, you can right click instead of pressing Q the first time, to get an arrow coming from your starting position.

[@Paladaino]

Man, those shortcuts are simply amazing. Thank you good sir for sharing, and thank you KZbin algorithm for showing up relevant content every once in a while :)

[@Robdiz8]

New DM here. Hosted 3 sessions so far. This single video may be the most valuable one I've watched to date. Had to stop half way through to find a note pad so I can add all these shortcuts to my DM board until I memorize them. EPIC. THANK YOU

[@motocolombia]

I’ve watched a few of your videos, and can honestly say they are the most useful I’ve come across. Legitimately*gasped* at the mood shot. Thank you

[@dysenteryking9034]

This is the best Roll20 video out there, I have 900 hours on the site and I didn't know these. So many ideas spring to mind with every shortcut

[@Dr.Menace]

Such a simple but great macro. Thanks a lot! I've been cutting all that text out and moving it to the DM notes of the sheets and that could get pretty tedious.

[@gvanbooven]

Even with this being a year old I always learn several tips from any your videos. They are clear and easy to follow. Well done!

[@Travisneedham1]

I am just starting off as a GM, and on Roll 20, and these really helped me. Thank you!!

[@MrCrotzer]

I love the tip for shift z used for showing atmosphere to players!

[@RisingPhoenixGallery]

Great job with the video. Useful info, well edited, short and sweet. Keep um coming. I just found you a couple of days ago and will spread the word.

[@Hrekto]

Man! The image macro, alt+double click, and the X key bit were awesome! Thanks!

[@NickOlivo]

Glad you found it helpful!

[@licidy1]

An excellent video - will be sharing to other GMs I know. The image macro is amazing! You enter it from the Collections tab in the top-right. One thing I was concerned with was if the images have to already be uploaded within Roll20, and I am happy to note this is not the case - so long as the image address is from a non-password-protected site, it will post to the chat. Double bonus, if the players click on the image in chat, it will open the image in a new tab for them ^_^

[@NickOlivo]

Cool, I didn't realize that!

[@lisafoadstock1452]

That shift+a thing to show players images.. that’s next level so glad to have come across this. This will help me build subpar maps because I’ve been struggling trying to make them perfect and it’s taking way more time than i need it to

[@lisafoadstock1452]

Shift+Z*** freaking auto correct

[@NickOlivo]

Glad it was helpful! Happy gaming!

[@kegandellinger7670]

This will literally change my game for the better. Thanks!

[@Sumtinrandom]

This video is so good. I've just started using roll20 and this was probably the most valuable stuff I learned so far (aside from dynamic lighting). Thank you!

[@IgorFaria]

That show image macro is really usefull, I'm stealing it! :D

[@Vokalplus]

Awesome video, thanks!

[@JeremyKeyes]

That image display macro is a game-changer for me. Thank you!

[@DNDJamie]

This was a tremendously helpful video. I'm in the process of learning roll20 while actively DMing a new game type (new to me at least, its SotDL) on it, so with all the research I'm having to do weekly, I love that theres super quick vids like this to show critical things I'd need to know.

[@hokiesfan4500]

Dude, I've looked through shortcuts in roll20 but either didn't see or pick up on many of these. Alt-dbl click - Going to be a HUGE time saver.

[@akg2n]

I know a ton of people have said it but damn that mood shot is so great. Cheers man. New sub.

[@stephentutterow7191]

Nick, great video and your presentation skills are fantastic - clear, concise, and easily formatted to share with players which is great. Get ready to have all of your other videos watched at least 3-5 times each!

[@NickOlivo]

Thanks for the kind words, Stephen!

[@WolfmanXD]

Yo, that shrinking the character sheet is amazing. Running combat gets so annoying with 3-4 different monster stat blocks up at once. This is gonna make it so much better.

[@codywoldt4953]

Bro this was so helpful. Thanks man. Ill definitly be using these at the next session

[@NickOlivo]

You're welcome! Have fun!

[@thegoatdealer]

Thanks Nick, the macro tip was super useful.

[@ruprecht8520]

Wow, 5 years old and still most of these are really useful.

[@sendmoresnacks]

You have no idea how much I’ve needed these tips! Thank you!

[@NickOlivo]

Glad it was helpful! Happy gaming!

[@KRayne27]

This is so helpful, thank you so much for making the video.

[@jasonphillips3817]

I want to see you DM a game in roll20 and watch the magin unfold. Awesome series man, criminally underrated/underviewed.

[@Grungydan]

Immediately putting some of this into action in my games. Thanks!

[@TheViolentLove]

Just come across this video. Thank you very much sir!! This is a game changer. My turn to DM next and I’m now a lot more confident! 😊

[@Kermaperuna]

Good video. May the algorithm be with you

[@kaos6822]

I just started using roll20, all I can say is thank you. Have a sub

[@XanderHarris1023]

You can also use Shift + scroll wheel to move side to side on the map.

[@alazdmfirst5980]

This is great stuff sir! I'm so sorry it took me so long to learn this stuff. Thank you for all of the videos. I've got a lot of catch up to do now.

[@NickOlivo]

Glad the videos were helpful! Happy gaming!

[@ChristianHoffmannHoffi]

Whow, really good tips! Thanks a lot! Just changed a bunch of Handouts to Shift-Z Images. :D Awesome!

[@slipperyfish]

You didn't rush either, which is a pleasant change of pace compared to other KZbin tutorials. You might have just become my guy for this. *Checking out channel*

[@ducky6657]

Just got back into roll20 so my group can still play. And these will be extremely useful. Thank you very much!

[@Korealignments]

This channel is the gift that keeps on giving.

[@Itaugolia1]

Very nice video to either refresh one's memory or utterly discover Roll20 ^^' Thank you !

[@MitVorteil]

One of my viewers sent me here. Thanks for the video! Learned a bunch of new things! (:

[@Seymour101]

These are really cool tips , i recently got premium and this stuff if gonna come in handy , thanks for making this .

[@АлександрГидревич-э4м]

Much-needed and great demonstration.

[@brainmold]

Amazing! thank you, I've been using roll20 for years and didn't know half of these. So useful!!!

[@battlemapbrawl]

This is super cool. I need to tell my DM to start doing this. haha

[@CooperAATE]

Just found this vid, and I'm SO happy to learn about the Q trick!!!!!

[@NickOlivo]

Glad you liked it! Happy gaming!

[@Satori2046]

Fantastic, keep on the good work !

[@PHLsbg]

very useful tips and tricks 👍

[@shannondutton2217]

Thanks Nick,I like to play RPGs this way

[@endysent]

Thanks for the tips, I had no idea you could use X to review movement, that's super helpful! I knew most of the rest, but I'll definitely give the image macro a try, I usually hide images on the map that I use shift+Z to show to players but a lot of the time they claim I'm "jumpscaring" them, or it will interrupt them while they're scrolling around the map

[@NickOlivo]

Glad it was helpful! Happy gaming!

[@illyrio]

This is a great video. I just watched it. Thanks!

[@Surgicalshred]

AWESOME video, man! Love it.

[@MakeYouFeelBetterNow]

This video has been very helpful thank you! I'm just starting Roll20 this week.

[@Grievas85]

Nick I just loved you, with this video. Is a treasure!

[@liamcullen3035]

Wow these are all super useful! Thanks for the informative video! 😁

[@darcyw156]

More useful every time I watch it!! Great job. Thank you so much.

[@Thetb93]

the drag and Q key is also possible with drag and right click from the beginning

[@RikThunder33]

yes but the entire view is panning then at the same time x_x which is weird.

[@warrencann3824]

Awesome tips : thank you!

[@ioannisvlachogiannis523]

Great work again! Sorry if I am spamming you today but I just found out about your channel and I am really grateful you did all those incredibly useful videos!

[@NickOlivo]

Glad the vids are helpful! Happy gaming!

Thanks I’m new to Roll 20, You have a new Subscriber

[@oribennett6520]

This was super useful, thanks!

[@thisjust10]

I had a visceral reaction to the shift click on the token oh my God thanks

[@justbrandon80]

Your content is great. I really learned some neat things here, but could you maybe mention when it's 5E exclusive stuff?

[@DivusMagus]

Omg this is so helpful its always annoying when I move maps and no one can find their tokens. now i can just drag them straight to them. Roll 20 really needs to add a good tutorial instead of just a link to the wiki and a middle finger.

[@mithusrpgteam]

Thanks a lot! Helped my whole game! Keep the great work!

[@NickOlivo]

Glad it helped! Happy gaming!

[@carloscarmonacircadiem]

Amaizing. Great Video

[@IUHOI]

OMG thank you. I have over shitton of hours in roll20 and never knew about double click or players attention drag. But I believe ctrl+L don't help with GM layout though.

[@kencarcas8598]

Where you planning on doing another like this? Really enjoyed this one :)
