Improving the GCA5 GURPS 4e Official Character Sheet
Now that I've made all the fonts Black Arial, 10 point except for the "Included" and "Contains" notes, which are 8 point, I can actually look at it on-screen.
Bugs:
Suggestions:

Re: Improving the GCA5 GURPS 4e Official Character Sheet
Talking of which - I used the Options for this sheet to include the character's Portrait, but it just doesn't appear anywhere. (And yes, the character has a Portrait.)

Re: Improving the GCA5 GUROS 4e Official Character Sheet
I can echo the desire to have Advantages, Disadvantages and skills kept together.
In the primary game I'm running the players have a lot of all three and it's somewhat confusing and annoying (at least for them) to have to keep flipping sheets to find where they've all gone. Mind you, it's a high level game, and most sheets have a hard time with those. In my other game, they're Monster Hunter level, but much newer to the game, so it's confusing for them.

Re: Improving the GCA5 GURPS 4e Official Character Sheet
I haven't seen that bit of misbehaviour. With the character I'm using for testing, the portrait appears on page 1 if I set the character sheet option for that, otherwise on the last page.

Re: Improving the GCA5 GURPS 4e Official Character Sheet
Something that Phoenix has, and whose usefulness I had forgotten until I started trying out this sheet with GCA5: selecting the density for highlighting. The current highlighting is rather dense, more so than it needs to be,

Re: Improving the GCA5 GURPS 4e Official Character Sheet
I'm not sure what you mean by density here. Do you mean the level of opacity for the shading of the alternate line items?

Re: Improving the GCA5 GURPS 4e Official Character Sheet
Yes, exactly so. Sorry, I forgot the correct term.

Which options did you set for the Portrait? You may need to send me the portrait and the character so I can test things out.

...Aaaand now it's showing up just fine. Huh. Turning it off and on again, I guess.

Okie doke. I think I'm using fixed colors, just lighter shades, rather than any actual opacity. I should be able to offer an opacity setting as well.
