  I understand. " /w GM 1d20+3" How do I use the macro the character sheet provides for a stealth check as an example but it'll roll my stealth but only to DM.  Pathfinder sheet.

As Ability on your character Journal "/w GM [[1d20 + @{stealth} ]] As macro /w GM [[1d20 + @{TheNameOfYourCharacterSheet|stealth} ]] If Using the Sheet directly On the sheet itself is a gear icon in the top-right corner. Under that tab there is a section called "Sheet Configuration" Under that is a drop-down option to change "PC rolls" to "Whisper GM"
Here is how I have my skills set up for the 5th edition OGL sheet. If you change the names of the skills to the proper names then it should work fine. /w @{selected|character_name} &{template:npcaction} {{rname=Skill Checks}} {{description=Select Skill Check [Acrobatics](~selected|acrobatics) [Animal Handling](~selected|animal_handling) [Arcana](~selected|animal_handling) [Athletics](~selected|athletics) [Deception](~selected|deception) [History](~selected|history) [Insight](~selected|insight) [Intimidation](~selected|intimidation) [Investigation](~selected|investigation) [Medicine](~selected|medicine) [Monster](~Macros|monster) [Nature](~selected|nature) [Perception](~selected|perception) [Performance](~selected|performance) [Persuasion](~selected|persuasion) [Religion](~selected|religion) [Sleight of Hand](~selected|sleight_of_hand) [Stealth](~selected|survival) }}

The 5e templates aren't compatible with the Pathfinder sheet. &{template:npcaction}  has to be changed to &{template:pf_generic} {{rname=Skill Checks}} to {{name=Skill Checks}} and a few other changes are needed with the skill attributes as well.
For the entire checks macro I have set up for the 5th edition OGL I have this Macro in my settings so that it pops up for every token #Checks &{template:npcaction} {{rname=Checks}} {{description=Select type of Roll [Ability Check](~Macros|Abilities) [Death](~selected|death_save) [Saves](~Macros|Saves) [Skills](~Macros|Skills) }} Then I have a character named Macros to house the rest of the macros #Abilities /w @{selected|character_name} &{template:npcaction} {{rname=Ability Checks}} {{description=Select type of Ability Check [Strength](~selected|strength) [Dexterity](~selected|dexterity) [Constitution](~selected|constitution) [Intelligence](~selected|intelligence) [Wisdom](~selected|wisdom) [Charisma](~selected|charisma) [Beauty](~selected|beauty) }} #Saves /w @{selected|character_name} &{template:npcaction} {{rname=Saving Throw}} {{description=Select Saving Throw [Strength](~selected|strength_save) [Dexterity](~selected|dexterity_save) [Constitution](~selected|constitution_save) [Intelligence](~selected|intelligence_save) [Wisdom](~selected|wisdom_save) [Charisma](~selected|charisma_save) }} #Skills /w @{selected|character_name} &{template:npcaction} {{rname=Skill Checks}} {{description=Select Skill Check [Acrobatics](~selected|acrobatics) [Animal Handling](~selected|animal_handling) [Arcana](~selected|animal_handling) [Athletics](~selected|athletics) [Deception](~selected|deception) [History](~selected|history) [Insight](~selected|insight) [Intimidation](~selected|intimidation) [Investigation](~selected|investigation) [Medicine](~selected|medicine) [Monster](~Macros|monster) [Nature](~selected|nature) [Perception](~selected|perception) [Performance](~selected|performance) [Persuasion](~selected|persuasion) [Religion](~selected|religion) [Sleight of Hand](~selected|sleight_of_hand) [Stealth](~selected|survival) }} If you change around the names to the correct names then you can use this to make checks for any token that represents a character.
It is not compatible as written. You can change the template using the default template &{template:default}{{name=}}{{ }}... Then change the names to the proper names on your sheet. I do not know the specifics of your sheet. The (~character name|attribute name) notation for buttons only works for macros of the notation %{character name|attribute name}.
Appreciate it.  Im able to understand the jist of it.  Thanks.
Could also just do the following: /w GM %{selected|Stealth-Check}
