Is it possible to make a token macro that will let me choose from a list of every skill, and roll the chosen skill privately to me as a GM?

See topic name XD Specifically I need an easy way to roll Perception and Insight for my various characters in my Mutants and Masterminds game, but want to be able to also secretly roll any skill since those may not be the only use-case, and I want to be able to just click their token, click the macro, choose the skill, and it rolls their skill privately to me. Even if it can't cover combat skills and expertise skills, that's fine, as long as it works with everything else.

Yes, this is possible, however I don't recommend doing it via a query . I would suggest a Chat Menu . Queries can take a high amount of effort due to all of the HTML replacement required. 

I know nothing about how those work. Can I get some help please? EDIT: So, there was an example I found on that page that I was able to copy/paste and make work, barely, but I can't get it to display the name of the person, and the rolls I make are public :/ /w gm &{{@{selected|character_name}}[Acrobatics](~selected|acrobatics) | [Athletics](~selected|athletics) | [Deception](~selected|deception) | [Insight](~selected|insight) | [Intimidation](~selected|intimidation) | [Investigation](~selected|investigation) | [Perception](~selected|perception) | [Persuasion](~selected|persuasion) | [Sleight of Hand](~selected|sleightofhand) | [Stealth](~selected|stealth) | [Technology](~selected|technology) | [Treatment](~selected|treatment) | [Vehicles](~selected|vehicles)

Okay, after some experimentation, I now know if I can set attributes on the selected character with a menu button, such that I can toggle the GM roll option on or off, i can do what I need. Does anyone know how to do that?

Is there a method inside the character sheet to control whispering when you make a roll? If so that is your best bet.  If not, then you probably need to make brand new macros for each skill, with those macros set to whisper to you. Then set your Chat Menu to those macros rather than the default options of the sheet. 

If you are using the built in actions: " ~selected|athletics", then the sheet will produce the roll, and obey the whisper settings. Even if you whisper to the GM, the owner of the sheet will see the roll. You would need to do as Gauss says, and create your own custom macros for everything, if you want gm-only visibility. There are some API scripts that can make secret rolls, such as Group Check, but that requires a Pro subscription.

I'm not spending money on rping when I can barely afford by 1 subscription I have. I don't know how to make the macros manually. I've gotten all my macros from my friend who made them. Can someone tell me what I need to do? Even just a single macro that I can then copy and modify to do what I want would help a lot.

Adran06,  To help further we would need to know which character sheet you are using. Please give us the name of the character sheet, or if you don't know, a screenshot of the sheet. 

I do believe it's the official Mutants and Masterminds 3e one?

Alright, I was able to take a look at the sheet:  Step 1: Drag the button to the bottom of the sheet. It will create a button as shown in step 2.  Step 2: Press the button Step 3: Click the Chat's text area, hit the up arrow on your keyboard. Copy the text.  Step 4: Click Attributes and Abilities at the top of the character.  Step 5: Create an Ability, name it the name of the skill (Acrobatics in this case) but put a number after it. Such as Acrobatics1. (Reason is the character sheet is also appearing to use that ability name, it would be a duplicate and would misbehave.) Step 6: Paste the copied text, "%{Craziabe Ucraoge|acrobatics}" (without quotes) in this case. Put /w GM in front of it.  Example: "/w GM %{Craziabe Ucraoge|acrobatics}" (without quotes.  Step 7: Repeat for the other skills.  Now you have an Ability that will whisper the result.  Use that Ability in the Chat Menu.  Example:  /W GM &{{@{SELECTED|CHARACTER_NAME}}[ACROBATICS](~SELECTED|ACROBATICS1) Final step: Hover over the button(s) that were created, on the right side of the button is a little popout when you hover over it, grab that and drag it towards the top of the screen. That will get rid of the button. 

TY! I was worried I'd have to set all the players to GM only, which was kind of disappointing.

So, I tried this and it didn't work.

Nevermind, the steps were really unclear, but it works now.

Okay, now I'm getting an error that I can't figure out why it's happening.  Unrecognized command: /W GM 0 {{name=Time Lass}} {{trait=deception}} {{result=$[[0]]}} For the record: /w gm &{template:default}{{name=Chat Menu for @{selected|identity_name} }} /w GM &{{@{selected|character_name}}[Acrobatics](~selected|acrobatics1) | [Athletics](~selected|athletics1) | [Deception](~selected|deception1) | [Insight](~selected|insight1) | [Intimidation](~selected|intimidation1) | [Investigation](~selected|investigation1) | [Perception](~selected|perception1) | [Persuasion](~selected|persuasion1) | [Sleight of Hand](~selected|sleightofhand1) | [Stealth](~selected|stealth1) | [Technology](~selected|technology1) | [Treatment](~selected|treatment1) | [Vehicles](~selected|vehicles1) Acrobatics and Athletics work just fine.
