Multi level spells with targets

Hello. I'm new to roll20 (#quarantine2020) and I'm trying to wrap my head around macros. I'm trying to create a macro for 5e cure wounds that 1) has a dropdown to select what level I'm casting it at 2) allows me to select a target to get their name 3) and as a bonus I'd like to also include /fx Here's what I've got so far. ?{Spell| Cure Wounds 1, **Cure Wounds 1** With a hearty pat on the back @{target|Heal Recipient 1|character_name} regains [[1d8+4]] HP. | Cure Wounds 2, **Cure Wounds 2** "By the holy light!" @{target|Heal Recipient 2|character_name} regains [[2d8+5]] HP. | Cure Wounds 3, **Cure Wounds 3** 50% of the time it works every time! @{target|Heal Recipient 3|character_name} regains [[3d8+6]] HP. } /fx beam-holy @{target|Caster|token_id} @{target|Heal Recipient|token_id} It 'works' but the problem is I have to select the target 4 times before I get to select the dropdown option. Is there a better way to do this, so I only have to select the caster & target once?

Consider the following macro: ?{Curse spell, choose number of target to be affected |1, @{target|1|name} is |2, @{target|1|name} and @{target|2|name} are }affected by a powerful scourge! Even if the player choose to affect 1 target, he will have to click on 2 targets to launch the spell but the chat will display the name of the first target only. Free accounts on Roll20 work this way. A Pro subscriber have access to the API and can script "smarter" macros. For click mouse saving purpose: - One spell to heal one target, potency of spell is chosen on-the-fly with the spellcaster and recipient names specified once (1 click to launch the spell, 1 click to select caster, 1 click to select target = 3 clicks): ?{Cure Wounds, select potency|Cure Light Wounds,with a hearty pat on the back @{target|RECIPIENT|token_name} regains [[1d8+4]] HP.|Cure Moderate Wounds,"By the holy light!" @{target|RECIPIENT|token_name} regains [[2d8+5]] HP.|Cure Critical Wounds,50% of the time it works every time! @{target|RECIPIENT|token_name} regains [[3d8+6]] HP.} /fx beam-holy @{selected|CASTER|token_id} @{target|RECIPIENT|token_id} - One spell to heal multiple target at once, potency chosen on-the-fly with spellcaster and recipients name specified once (1 click to launch the spell, 1 click to select caster, 1 click to select EACH 4 targets = 6 clicks) ?{Cure Wounds, select potency|Cure Light Wounds,with a hearty pat on the back @{target|RECIPIENT 1|token_name0}, @{target|RECIPIENT 2|token_name}, @{target|RECIPIENT 3|token_name} and @{target|RECIPIENT 4|token_name} regains [[1d8+4]] HP.|Cure Moderate Wounds,"By the holy light!" @{target|RECIPIENT 1|token_name0}, @{target|RECIPIENT 2|token_name}, @{target|RECIPIENT 3|token_name} and @{target|RECIPIENT 4|token_name} regains [[2d8+5]] HP.|Cure Critical Wounds,50% of the time it works every time! @{target|RECIPIENT 1|token_name0}, @{target|RECIPIENT 2|token_name}, @{target|RECIPIENT 3|token_name} and @{target|RECIPIENT 4|token_name} regains [[3d8+6]] HP.} /fx beam-holy @{selected|CASTER|token_id} @{target|RECIPIENT 1|token_id} /fx beam-holy @{selected|CASTER|token_id} @{target|RECIPIENT 2|token_id} /fx beam-holy @{selected|CASTER|token_id} @{target|RECIPIENT 3|token_id} /fx beam-holy @{selected|CASTER|token_id} @{target|RECIPIENT 4|token_id} To prevent players to learn that one of the character acts under a secret identity (i.e. token's name on the VTT does not match character's name), you should consider using "@{selected|token_name}" or "@{target|token_name}" when the result is to be publicly displayed in chat and should keep "@{selected|character_name}" and "@{target|character_name}" to /w command for example.
