Requesting Skill, Save and Attack Macros [3.5 Sheet]

Does anyone have macros that can call up the Skill Check, Saving Throw, and Weapon Attack/Full Attack/Damage Macros from the macro bar without having to open the character sheet? And if so would these be able to have a selection process, or would they be individual for each weapon/save/skill?

individual for each action.... and they are: Weapon: %{weapon # attack} %{weapon # fullattack} replace the # with the weapon number (1-6) Saves: %{fortitudecheck %{reflexcheck} %{willcheck} Skills: %{appraisecheck} %{bluffcheck} %{usemagicdevicecheck} %{craft # check} %{perform # check} %{knowarcanecheck} %{knowdungeoncheck} etc.... I personally group up different types of checks... Such as all my saves roll at the same time and only the relevant one is used: &{template:DnD35Attack} {{saveflag=true}} {{name=@{character_name} }} {{subtags=**Saves**}} {{attack1=**Fortitude check:**}} {{damage1=[[1d20 + @{fortitude}]] }} {{fullattackflag=[[d1]]}} {{attack2=*+[[7]] vs Spells*}} {{damage2=*+[[4]] vs Poison*}} {{attack3=**Reflex check:**}} {{damage3=[[1d20 + @{reflex}]] }} {{attack4=*+[[7]] vs Spells*}} {{attack5=**Will check:**}} {{damage5=[[1d20 + @{will}]] }} {{attack6=*+[[7]] vs Spells*}} {{damage6=*-[[2]] vs Fear*}} {{attack7=*+[[2]] vs Sleep/Charm*}} {{notes= immune to disease & fire}} Skills that are either of similar function or often used together: &{template:DnD35StdRoll} {{skillflag=true}} {{name=@{character_name} }} {{subtags=**Senses**}} {{**Spot **=[[1d20 + @{spot}]] }} {{**Listen **=[[1d20 + @{listen}]] }} {{**Search**=[[1d20 + @{search}]] }} &{template:DnD35StdRoll} {{skillflag=true}} {{name=@{character_name} }} {{subtags=**Sneak**}} {{**Hide**=[[1d20 + @{hide} +@{int-mod}]] }} {{**Move Silent**=[[1d20 + @{movesilent}]] }} {{notes=While within 10ft of shadows, besides her own, +[[20]] Hide}} &{template:DnD35StdRoll} {{skillflag=true}} {{name=@{character_name} }} {{subtags=**Trapfinding**}} {{**Search**=[[1d20 + @{search}]] }} {{**Disable Device**=[[1d20 + @{disabledevice}]] }} &{template:DnD35StdRoll} {{skillflag=true}} {{name=@{character_name} }} {{subtags= **Knowledge Check**}} {{Arcana | Dungeoneering Religion | The Planes=[[1d20 + @{knowarcana}]] }} {{Engineering | Geography Local | Nature | Nobility=[[1d20 + @{knowengineer}]] }} {{History=[[1d20 + @{knowhistory}]] }} {{**Lore Check** =[[1d20 + @{int-mod} + {@{casterlevel}+@{casterlevel2}, @{level}}kl1 +11]]}}

To get the macros on your macro bar, for the saving throws, weapon rolls, and skills not in the repeating section (the area created using the Add button), you can just grab the button itself and pull it down to the macro bar. If you want them to show up as token actions at the top of your screen when you select a token, you will have to create them as Abilities on the Attributes & Abilities tab. To do that, click +Add , click on the small pencil symbol next to the New Ability, edit the name to reflect what you want (say Fort-Save), and then type in the call for the sheet macro you want (for the fortitude save, it is @{fortitudemacro}). You can find the names of the macros by mousing over the editable fields for them on the sheet, they need to go inside the @{ } to be substituted into your ability instead of just giving the name back. Skill macros follow the same nomenclature ie: @{appraisemacro} Weapon macros will be @{weapon1attackmacro}, @{weapon1fullattackmacro}, @{weapon1damagemacro} You can put as many macro calls into your ability as you wish; you could have one called Saves which consists of @{fortitudemacro} @{reflexmacro} @{willmacro} but there is no way to use an ability or macro to select one off the sheet. Unfortunately @{?{skillname|appraise}macro} won't work. So the macros basically are individual. Once you have the abilities set up, you can call them by setting them to show on your token bar, setting them to show on your macro bar, or by typing %{Character_Name|Fort-Save} in the chat window. If you type in % in the chat window, it will give you some prompts to try to help you select one of the abilities you have already set up. If you want to get into creating your own macros from scratch, the D&D3.5 sheet has a section hidden on the bottom on Roll Templates which tries to explain how to use the built in roll templates, and more information on macros in general can be found on the wiki at <a href="https://wiki.roll20.net/Macros" rel="nofollow">https://wiki.roll20.net/Macros</a> . There are some 3.5 specific macros on the wiki at <a href="https://wiki.roll20.net/Dungeons_and_Dragons_3.5" rel="nofollow">https://wiki.roll20.net/Dungeons_and_Dragons_3.5</a> though Ziechael does not use the roll templates.
Take Diana's advice... she wrote the sheet... her advice will be far more accurate than mine ^-^

Hehe. We gave different advice though. I spent more time on how to do it, you gave him more macros. :) (why yes, I do subscribe to the 'If you teach a man to fish' theory... :) edit: and I'm totally stealing yours to put in my list of macros... on the off chance I might figure out how to edit the wiki someday.... :D
Thank you guys! Diana, is there any way to edit the name of the macros you pull from the CS to the quickbar?

Not at this point in time, unless you recreate them as an Ability under your own name. This suggestion: <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/1353286/drag-sla" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/1353286/drag-sla</a>... is one that asks for the ability to rename those buttons (there may be others I did not look further); if you have free votes, you could use one on it.
free votes?
