Droppables




A module which allows you to drag and drop an entire folder of tokens or journal entries onto the canvas as well as uploading files for tokens, tiles, sounds, or notes.

Overview​

Droppables streamlines the process of adding content to your Foundry VTT scenes by enabling powerful drag-and-drop functionality. Instead of placing tokens and assets one by one, you can now drop entire folders of actors or journal entries onto your canvas in a single action. The module automatically creates and positions tokens or notes for each item in the folder, saving valuable preparation time.

Additionally, Droppables revolutionizes how you import external files into Foundry. Simply drag files directly onto your canvas, and based on the currently selected layer, the module will automatically create the appropriate game elements - whether that's new actors with tokens, tiles, ambient sounds, or journal entries. This eliminates the traditional multi-step process of uploading files and then creating game elements separately.

Features​

  • Easily drop entire folders of actors onto the canvas in a stack, line, or randomly
  • Easily drop folders of notes onto the canvas
  • Drop various files onto the canvas to automatically upload them to your world and create tokens, tiles, sounds, or notes
