Community Forums: Can you execute a collections macro from a handout

1551188316

Is it possible to execute a collections macro from a handout from the BIO section? I have a handout, not a character sheet, that has some information I want the players to see, then an option to execute a macro I created in Collections. The name of the macro is Move-Calculator.

This is called a  Journal Command Button . Make a link by selecting text in the handout and pressing the Link button (like you were going to link a website). Type a backtick ` and then hashtag followed by the macroname: `#macro_name When you click on the text in the handout, it will run the macro.

Wow! Had no idea you could do that. That's amazing!  ... says while thinking about what wonderfully devious traps he can hide for the players to find in a non-descript "note" handout found in the possessions of a known trickster... :D
