Voice Narration Support with a new /scene command #3

Closed apoapostolov closed 4 years ago

apoapostolov commented 4 years ago

This was discussed between us on Discord but wanted to write it down for reference.

A new command called /scene would trigger dimming of the canvas and apply vignette effect to the corners of the canvas. This mode can be used by the DM to start a "cutscene description" and cue players to listen rather than jump to act. Also, it can be used to set the scene darker for the /narrate commands to follow.

Typing /scene during a scene ends the scene removing the dimming and the vignettes.

I added a tool on the Token Toolbox, on the left size of the canvas. Its better than a chat command.

It is very beautiful. I noticed an issue that you draw on canvas but not under the sidebar, resulting in this view when the sidebar is minimized. And in general, even when minimized, the lack of vignette dimming there resulted in the dimming of the sidebar itself to look brighter than the dimming applied by the scene.

Here's example how it looks with restored sidebar: You can see it is brighter on the side of the canvas, under the sidebar.
