2 questions, multiple boards and open hands?

Hey guys,

So I'm pretty new at this and not terribly familiar with xml. Everything is working fine as is, but I've encountered two questions.

I need to have a counter bank near the gameboard. Right now I have stacks of the desired counters (they have their own counter sheet) in another tab. Is there anyway to put this counter sheet near the gameboard?

Also, I was thinking about moving some of the player's counters into their hand, but its very important that a player's hand be public. Is there any way to do this?

Hi! It is best to keep the counter sheet on a separate tab. It means you'll have to move the counters from the counter sheet tab to the game board. You can speed up the setup process by creating a scenario with all the counters already on the board, ready to play.

The player hand is a great way to store counters and move them from tab to tab but other players are not allowed to examine its content.
Allocate some space on the board where the players will display the content of their 'hands'.
