Pathfinder Community Sheet - Attack Macro for PCs?

When I was making characters both NPCs and PCs I came across a problem. NPCs, if flagged as one -  when the sheet is first created - have access to Macro Text on the Attack tab for attacks: PCs on the other hand don't seem to have this option. I tried checking the "Is NPC" box on my PCs but once the sheet is created and you don't flag as NPC immediately   after creating it it doesn't add the Macro Text feature to the Attack section retroactively. So how can I get Macro Text on Attacks for my PCs? Is there a workaround for this? Some other option I can check off?

I found a work around for this in case anybody runs into this problem: 1) Create a new character sheet 2) IMMEDIATELY toggle "Is NPC?" checkbox 3) Fill in Monster Data manually 4) Click Parse button 5) Fill out the rest of the character sheet, copying from old non-working one if necessary 6) Add attacks to the "Attacks" tab 7) Go in settings and turn "Is NPC?" checkbox off 8) Now you have access to Macro Text for Attacks on PCs (All existing and new) Nevermind I found out where the setting was.

Check your settings.  Sheet configuration/advanced wiki guide for the sheet, link is in the footer.  Lots of info about the sheet can be found in the guide.
It was right in front of me the whole time: And I went and remade 5 PCs and 2 GM controlled story PCs to get the macro text option when all I had to do was check that box. Give me a break, I've been using roll20 for 11 days.

Sorry.  The community sheet is a behemoth.  It will take a while to learn everything it can and can't do.  ;-p
It definitely has a learning curve, but it is so awesome. The more I use it the more I like it. I put together a PFS scenario last night from scratch using the sheet. It was a cinch to put in the scenario's custom named encounters. Put in the image and save that. Copy and paste to Notepad, do the necessary editing which took about five seconds, then copy and paste that into the GM notes. Do the parse command and there's my encounter mob. The Compendium has most of the regular monsters so that's just as easy. I just love using the Community sheet as a GM and as a player. The Companion script has made using Roll20 so much easier!
