Open the character sheet of the player on its turn

Hi, I am assuming the role of the GM for a campain and trying to find macros to make some action easy. Is there a possibility to create a macro to rapidly open de character sheet of the player whose turn it is (specially for the MG controlled monster as each player manage their own character). I was thinking of a command which refer directly to the tracker (initiative tracker). The Alt+double click is still a good option, but in the case where you have a lot of monster it can be tricky to locate the token whose turn it is. Thanks all!

That would require an API script, and even then, the user would have to click on something to cause the sheet to open. If you just need to click ability buttons, might I suggest a chat menu such as  NPC Statblock Chat Menu for D&D 5e sheet — No API required!  or its more robust offspring courtesy of Jarren K.  Universal NPC Statblock Abilities and Spells Chat Menus for D&D 5e sheet — No API or Stylus required!

How many unique enemies do you have in one battle?  If you set up your tokens correctly, you should be able to have any similar enemies share a character sheet.  Then you can usually just get away with one sheet per species, with additional sheets only being needed for very specialized unique npcs.  If you set things up that way, then you use the yellow highlight from the turn tracker to see which token is up in the tracker, but you will likely only need a couple sheets open.  You can also just double click on the sheet header to minimize it instead of totally closing it.  Then they are just a double click away when you need each sheet.
