Marco confusion on pathfinder character sheet

Hey everyone, I am playing pathfinder and the pathfinder character sheet. My issue has to do with macros using attacks. my understanding of how to create marcos is just slightly above basic understanding so anything to complex or if something goes to wrong i do not know how to troubleshoot it. 1, Imputed weapon information into the character sheet. Under weapon "0" 2. Imputed weapon information into the character sheet. Under weapon "1" Used the Interactive attacks option on this one by just checking the box provided. 3. When I test them out using the dice button out in front of the information i added everything works good. 4. Using the quick marco buttons above it only works for the one WITHOUT interactive attacks added. The interactive marco only displays the first attack and does not show interactive attacks. 5. Added a marco for each weapon under the "attributes and abilities tab" The macros read %{selected|repeating_weapon_0_Attack and %{selected|repeating_weapon_1_Attack. 6. Testing them there yields the same result and quick macro button. Any tips/ corrections to get interactive attacks to work?
Sadly, this is a limitation of the character sheet. Iterative attacks only work if you press the corresponding button next to the attack, and cannot (currently) be called from the quick buttons (and by extension any macros that call those buttons). The best workaround I've found is to manually make a new attack, fill out all the fields the same, and simply input the -5 in the attack mods field. I like to put "secondary" in the attack notes as a reminder as well. You can then call both of their quick buttons in an ability to get your full attack.
Thank you, i have done that in the past. I was just hopping that i could avoid it this time around.

Hi Jason. Glenn is correct that this due to the current limitations of repeating items. We could only include the iterative attacks for the repeating attack sheet roll only. The attack button bar(0-26) is hard coded into the sheet(no a macro text access) and will only roll for a single attack as you have learned. That said, you can make a custom token/ability macro that includes the additional attacks. Here's a post I made in the Pathfinder thread <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/1915585/#post-21" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/1915585/#post-21</a>... also, if you check out the token macros I made for one of the characters on the beta campaign ( <a href="https://app.roll20.net/join/801350/kEQ72w" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/join/801350/kEQ72w</a> ), I have 4 attack macros(single attack thru 4 iterative) that you can copy if you like. and... since I'm on a roll, Please comment and/or add a vote to this suggestion.
