[Macros] Impersonating a character when executing a macro

1387561830

Edited 1387561933
Suggestion: Possibility to automatically impersonate a character in chat when executing a token-action. If I select the drop-down element "As" below the chat to select a character, and then execute the token-action from a selected token, I can see the name and the avatar of the selected character in the chat; thus impersonating the character. I suggest that it is possible to auto-select the character to impersonate; using the character which is represented by the token triggering the action. I know that it is possible to use "/as @{selected|token_name}" in a macro, which prints the name of the token in the chat, but neither do I see the avatar of the character, nor does it use the full name of the character (in cases where the token name is just, say, the first name of the character). BTW: Thanks a lot to the Devs for all the awesome macro features already in place! [See this topic for my original question regarding this feature]
you can use /as @selected|character_name} to get the full name listed on the character sheet, as I mentioned in your other thread. sorry it still doesn't pull the image from the character sheet at that point, that would be a nice feature if the Devs can fix it that way.
