Star Wars: Saga Edition sheet macros not working

The Roll20 generated Star Wars: Saga Edition sheet has mods set as @{STR|max} (etc) so whenever I try to reference them in macros it fails because it can't find a character named Str.  Any guidance?

If you look at the "Attributes & Abilities" tab of your character sheet, you should be able to see just about all the attributes your sheet is generating.  Each of the attributes has a current and max value.  I don't know if STR is your actual stat for your character or a modifier for skills (which might be something like STR_mod).  Generally, if you are making a macro as an ability on the character sheet, then you just need to do @{attribute}.  If you are making a macro in your journal, then it will need to be something like @{character name|attribute}.  If you are needing the value for the max of the attribute (assuming you assigned a max value), then you would do @{attribute|max} from the character sheet, or @{character name|attribute|max} from the journal. If you are making macros on your character sheet as an ability (Attributes & Abilities tab), then you don't need to tell it what character to look for, because it defaults to that sheet.  If you are making them in the journal, then you have to tell them which character sheet to be looking for.  The character name has to be exactly as it is on the character sheet, and the attribute names have to be exactly as they are from the Attributes & Abilities tab, or it won't work.

Thanks for the reply Kraynic. Maybe it'll help if I tell you what I'm trying to do first. So melee damage = 1d20 + BAB + Str Mod. Base Attack Bonus is listed in Attributes & Abilities, so that's easy. But looking through it again, there's no sign of a Strength Modifier. I'm going to attach some pictures, that may help. So, as you can see, when I hover over the Strength modifier it shows it's coded as @{STR|max}. And you can see there's nothing in Abilities & Attributes that says @{STR|max} (which is odd), but even on top of that, Ref/Fort/Will mods all reference their attribute modifier but they all use @{att|max}.  Actually I just figured out something weird that's working. I was going to test various versions of @{STR-mod} but first I did @{Chyll|str|max} and that returned the correct result. So I'm going to code it like that and chalk it up to this sheet being old or something. If you have any thoughts on why it's happening I'm happy to hear them, but it looks like this will work if unelegantly.
