Niggle - Die Modifiers in Battle Display

It's a trivial point I know, but could the display for die modifiers be altered in battles? A minus one modifer appears as '-1' but a plus one appears as just '1' not '+1'

I've got the hang of it now, but it would probably be of help to newer players to make this clear.

The other thing I would like to offer is to make it clearer whether or not the value shown is the adjusted value. After having played a few games and seen the "0" die roll and the "7" die roll, I realize this is adjusted, but the first few times I saw a "4" or "5" I wondered this. FYI.

Funny you should ask!
The font we selected does not have the "+""-" available in its character set! Didn't realize this until we started to try and introduce labels such as the mods you're asking about.

I want to second NeverMan's observation about the modifier. Actually, this value is very confusing.
