Retrieve a variable w/o rolling?

Is it possible to get a variable within a repeat section and NOT do rolls? Right now I have a auto-update field that gets the name of the entry. Unfortunately if a user enters "longsword +1" the autoupdate field (which is just value="@{atk_name}") get's set to "1", if the user sets it to "longsword" it shows up as longsword. Anyway to get around this?

If you give the "display" field the same name as the user-editable one, you don't need to make it an autocalc field (with disabled and a value ) in order to exactly copy the value of the other field. You can make it non-editable (and yet not an autocalc field) with the readonly  attribute. Another option would be sheet workers.
