We are about to start using Roll 20 for the first time. GM has Plus account. We've been testing Roll 20 and so far are very impressed. I don't know how to identify the character sheet we're using except to say Dungeons and Dragons 5e, version 1.1.4. Hopefully, that's good enough.
I was playing around with the /fx command and created some macros to create some visuals. That's pretty cool. I thought it would be great if I could add that to the spells somehow. What I see when I search for macro help is a lot of people writing an entire macro that duplicates the entire spell. I'd prefer, if possible, to use the spells on the character sheet ("Spellbook" tab) and when I hit the button "Cast Spell", that along with whatever else the button does (for instance roll damage dice, display the save DC and the spell effect text) to also kick off a macro, such as #fireball, which just handles the /fx stuff.
Is that possible? If so, how do I add a macro over there? I tried adding #fireball as the sole text in the "Effects" box and all that did was spit out "#fireball" as part of the spell card.
So... can this be done? If so, how?
Thank you,
Darren
