Storyteller System Skill Button

Hi, Just a quick check if anyone has done, or tried to do, something similar to this in the past. I'm trying to create a button in a character sheet for a specific stat in the storyteller system, this is for 2nd edition Exalted but the system is broadly the same for most White Wolf games. This system uses Stat+Skill, rolling a number of d10's equal to that total. My idea was to have buttons on the character sheet corresponding to each skill (In this example, archery, which for some reason is stored as archery2 on the character sheet) and then ask for a relevant stat to go with it (In this example one of the physical stats). &{template:default} {{name=@{selected|character_name} rolls Archery}} {{Skill=@{selected|Archery2} }} {{Stat=?{Attribute Selection|Dexterity,@{selected|Dexterity}|Strength,@{selected|Strength}|Stamina,@{selected|Stamina} } }} {{Bonus Dice=?{Bonus Dice (Charm, Stunt, Ect.)|0} }} {{Bonus Successes=?{Bonus Successes|0} }} {{Roll=[[ [[@{selected|Archery2} + ?{Attribute Selection}+?{Bonus Dice (Charm, Stunt, Ect.)}]]t[exalted]+?{Bonus Successes}]] }} Ignore the line breaks, they're just there to fit the forum window better. Also, in the character sheet itself it won't have the term  selected|  in there. The above appears to work fine and outputs the following: However, where it says "Stat" is there a way for it to display the name of the stat instead of just the value? So if I select "Dexterity" have it display  "Dexterity 3" instead of just "Stat 3". I'm aware this is a nitpick, it is mainly for the benefit of one of my players who struggles sometimes with the rules. This player is otherwise excellent and I'm trying to make the game as comfortable and accommodating for them as I can. As Exalted is such a crunch heavy system I'm trying to get the macros and automation to spell everything out clearly and do as much of the work for them as I can. I'm conscious this may not be possible in the standard roll template, I do have scriptcards installed which I could use if that helps? I wasn't sure if that was able to be accessed from a character sheet button? Many thanks
You could use roll tags to identify which stat is being used: {{Stat=?{Attribute Selection|Dexterity,@{selected|Dexterity} [DEX]|Strength,@{selected|Strength} [STR]|Stamina,@{selected|Stamina} [STA]} }}
Knew it would be something either impossible or dead simple! Thanks, it's been a huge help!
