[5e OGL Sheet] Forcing display of character name in Simple Template macro

1585599243

Edited 1585681198
Hello, apologies if this has been posted before but I couldn't find the answer after quite a bit of searching. I'm trying to configure a 5e all-in-one saving throw macro, using the  HTML macro I found in this thread , which seems to be the most recent post addressing this type of macro. It works functionally, but all my character sheets (npc or player) use the "hide character name in rolls" setting by default. So obviously no name shows up under the roll when I use this macro... which can be confusing when rolling a lot of saves! Is there a way to force display of the character name in a  Simple Template  macro, even if that setting is enabled? I know this is possible using a  NPC Template  macro by inserting something like {{name=@{selected|npc_name}}} inline, but I think the Simple Template uses a different syntax and I haven't been able to figure out a workaround. Any help would be really appreciated!
The Simple Template would use this line: {{charname=@{character_name}}} Here is the page for the Templates
Thanks, super helpful! I added {{charname=@{selected|character_name}}} to the end of the macro and it worked great.
