thought i'd mention the couple things i noticed would need adding to get the toolkit synced with the wizards stuff.

* "Descriptor" . . . for example, every Warlock power has a "Descriptor" in parenthesis in the title bar (Fey) (Infernal) (Star)
* i'm not sure what it would be called... Sub Class Feature maybe? Power Feature? Rogue for example has "Rogue Tactics" (Brutal Scoundrel, Artful Dodger), Warlord has "Commanding Presence" . . . whatever it's called, it adds a paragraph to the Hit text similar to the Secondary/Tertiary Attack. The problem with this is that the name is tied to the class. warlord and rogue each have several. I dunno that it's necessary to tie it to the class tho I think having 2 blanks there (one for the name, one for the text) would be great.

as an aside, i like how the section title banner is master of the section and the entire section folds up under the banner. . . the fact that the banner is big and honkin makes a huge diff you don't really have to aim to click on it and hide a section. a little triangle would be "consistent" but it sucks when you're trying to aim for em.

There are definitely some discrepancies between the 4ePT and the WoTC format. I did my best to support all the major stuff, with the plan to add the smaller things as the beta progresses. I think I can get most of the special cases in there (including what you've just mentioned), just don't expect them all at once. :)

I also want to add non-power based class features. Having gone over the PHB, it looks like a serious omission. :P

As for the user interface, the program was a bit of an experiment for me in UI and modular design. I think it turned out okay too. :)
