Making an Elevator?

Hi all.  I'm running a Call of Cthulhu game, and in the process of making the Orne Library maps. It's the first time I've come across "Elevators" in a Roll20 Game, and I've been trying to find anything that might help me generate a selector that would allow a Teleport to a chosen location.  I've used the Teleport API numerous times and love it, and I assume there is a way to allow a selection from a dropdown menu of options 1, 2, 3 and B and when one is selected move whoever is on the Pad (which would cover the area of the elevator box) to the selected Pad on another map. (I understand prerequisites like having player tokens on the GM layer in advance, etc) Looking on the original Teleport case use examples there seem to be more options than are on the version I have. Has that change happened because of cross-map teleporting? Is it possible to just create macros from chat messages and apply those to a drop down menu?? In which case, could someone give me a nod as to the syntax and order I'd need to put all that?  Or have I managed to completely miss something that explains how to do this really simply? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
If it is the classic VTT you are using I believe that Teleport was recently broken (thank you Roll20). I don't know about Jumpgate.
Ah, thanks. This Cthulhu game started as a way to test Jumpgate and it got a bit out of hand and turned into a full blown campaign.. so that may be why.  I'll hang on a bit and do it manually till Jumpgate settles in. Cheers
