Multi-damage spells from 5e Character sheet

Most spells I can set up to roll properly on the character sheet just by clicking their button, rolling their damage and/or attack, which is mighty convenient.  But some spells do more than the 2 damage options given, prismatic wall being an easy example dealing 5 separate types of damage. Is there a way to just set it up to do all 5 damage rolls just from clicking the entry on the spell or core sheets? Or am I basically just gonna have to make a macro for it?

you can probably add a query to the spell entry on the main page of the character sheet to select the damage type.  Edit: just tested this... and  [?{Damage Type|Acid|Fire|Force|Lightning|Etc}] in the Damage: Type field should do the trick for you, with just a little bit of editing depending on the damage types.

Yeah, for spells like that, the best option is a custom macro, or put inline rolls in the description of the spell.
Hi, thought I'd chip in with this macro (final post) if it's any help? <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/10974397/trying-to-make-token-ability-for-an-attack-dealing-4-different-dice-for-4-different-damage-types/?pageforid=10979603#post-10979603" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/10974397/trying-to-make-token-ability-for-an-attack-dealing-4-different-dice-for-4-different-damage-types/?pageforid=10979603#post-10979603</a> For a spell with an attack roll it would fit very well, damage that gets to crit goes in dmg2 and anything that doesn't can be an inline roll in the description field.&nbsp; If using the template:dmg then adding those damage entries in to dmg2 should work by the same logic, haven't tested that though. Keith, can you spot any huge, gaping, oh my days what ARE you doing in there?
