Suggestion: Option to show only base item when Item Macro is installed #145

Currently, when used with Item Macro, there are two options: Show both the Item Macro and the original item, or show only the item macro.

A third option, to show only the original item and hide the Item Macro version would allow me to use my automated spell setup with the HUD, which would be a great help to my games.

I have a shared compendium full of spells customised for automation. As part of this, many use DAE to call an Item Macro which is a part of the item. This makes them either unusable with the HUD (if "Item Macro: Overwrite original item" is enabled), since the Item Macro is not designed to be called independently, or makes them confusing (if it's disabled) as both the working standard version and the non-functional Item Macro version will be shown.

Hi, I can see the sense in that. I probably won't get around to it immediately but I'll work on it when I've got time.

~+1 to this. Running the (M) of spells which utilize DAE's item macro calls will just throw errors.~

EDIT: Oh I see you did that already! Updating.
