The Attributes list on the Attributes and Abilities tab shouldn't be used when you're using a character sheet. You've just discovered one of the reasons. Repeating Attributes are special, and never show up in that attributes list. The attribute you created ( @{repeating_inventtab7_$0_itemquantity7} ) might look like a repeating section attribute, but it isn't one - it's a completely independent attribute that isn't linked to the similarly named attribute in the inventory. Attributes in a repeating section have a complex name made up of 3 parts: Repeating section name - in this case, repeating_inventtab7 row id, which is used to find the row in the repeating section, and looks something like -d6fht87gs the specific attribute name, in this case itemquantity7 So, a complete attribute name would look like repeating_inventtab7_ -d6fht87gs_ itemquantity7 Because those row ids are really hard to type, and hard to identify, roll20 lets you replace it with a row index, like $0 or $1. But when you do that, you aren't using the real attribute name- roll20 will identify that index, and replace it with the row id behind the scenes. But even the true attribute name (something like repeating_inventtab7_ -d6fht87gs_ itemquantity7 ) is not actually the true attribute name. Whenever roll20 uses that name, it breaks it into the three parts, and uses them to find the correct attribute value. If you try adding that to the Attributes list, you will add a single attribute of that name, not an attribute that roll20 can split and divide into three. There's no way to add a repeating attribute to the Attributes list. Likewise, repeating attributes cant be added to token bubbles either. Unfortunately.
