getSize() Function

• Introduced in version 1.3b48
Returns the Size of a Token.


The names of each size are based on the type of grid the map uses. The sizes can be found on the Token Size page.

Usage

getSize()
getSize(tokenRef)
getSize(tokenRef, mapname)

Parameter

  • tokenRef - Either the token id or Token Name of the token which has its Size returned, defaults to the Current Token.

     Note: This parameter can only be used in a Trusted Macro. 

  • mapname - The name of the map to find the token. Defaults to the current map.
Token IDs are unique, but Token Names can be duplicated. Using Token Name when more than one token has the same name can produce unexpected results.
