[Macro] Quick Question for Rolls

Hey everyone. I've got a small question. I'm currently playing in a Pathfinder campaign and I wanted to create a few Macros for Rolls I use often, skills and such. My problem is that for example the following /r 1d20+@{Character|Spellcraft spams the Chat with over 10 lines of calculations... Which is annoying. Is there a way to just send only the final result to chat?

Yes! try this: Go to your character journal, click on the Atributes & Abilities tab, click 'Add' next to Abilities. Name it Acrobatics or Acro or whatever you please and make the body: /me rolls for Acrobatics: [[1d20+@{Spellcraft}}+?{TempBonus?|0}]] Click the 'Show as Token Action'. Now, when you click on your token, you'll have a clickable button for Acrobatics.
Along those lines; you can also group commonly used skills together, to reduce the number of macro buttons you need... &{template:pf_generic} {{name=Knowledge's}} {{Arcana:[[ 1d20 + 21 ]]=**Nature**:[[1d20 + 17 ]] }} {{Planes:[[1d20 + 20 ]]=**Religion**:[[ 1d20 + 12 ]] }} {{Dungeon:[[ 1d20 + 8 ]]=**Geogphy**:[[ 1d20 + 12 ]] }} {{Appraise:[[ 1d20 + 10 ]]=**Engineer**:[[ 1d20 + 8 ]] }} {{History:[[ 1d20 + 20 ]]=**Linguist**:[[ 1d20 + 8 +5 ]] }} {{Nobility:[[ 1d20 + 17 ]]=**Local**:[[ 1d20 + 12 ]] }} Or list several SpellCraft checks for use with Identifying loot (which you end up rolling several times in a row, usually)... &{template:pf_generic} {{name=*[Detect Magic]( <a href="http://www.d20pfsrd.com/magic/all-spells/d/detect-magic" rel="nofollow">http://www.d20pfsrd.com/magic/all-spells/d/detect-magic</a> ) & [SpellCraft]( <a href="http://www.d20pfsrd.com/skills/spellcraft)*" rel="nofollow">http://www.d20pfsrd.com/skills/spellcraft)*</a> }} {{ =[[1d20 + 22 + (10* ?{Identify? 1/0 |0}) ]] ♦ [[1d20 + 22 + (10* ?{Identify? 1/0 |0}) ]] ♦ [[1d20 + 22 + (10* ?{Identify? 1/0 |0}) ]] ♦ [[1d20 + 22 + (10* ?{Identify? 1/0 |0}) ]]}} (Naturally you can replace any of the raw numbers with @{charactername|Attribute} to pull from attribute values, avoiding having to manually update the macro later.) ***** Version of these macros that don't rely on the Pathfinder Character Sheet ***** &{template:default} {{name=Knowledges}} {{Arcana[[ 1d20 + 20 ]]=**Appraise**[[1d20 + 10]]}} {{Linguistic[[ 1d20 + 7 +5]]=**Nature**[[1d20 + 15 +1[Book]]]}} {{Planes[[1d20 + 18 ]]=**Religion**[[ 1d20 + 11 ]] }} {{Dungeon[[ 1d20 + 7 ]]=**Nobility**[[1d20 + 7 ]]}} {{Engineer[[ 1d20 + 7 ]]=**History**[[1d20 + 18 +2[Book] ]]}} {{Geography[[ 1d20 + 11 ]]=**Local**[[1d20 + 11 ]]}} &{template:default} {{name=*[Detect Magic](<a href="http://www.d20pfsrd.com/magic/all-spells/d/detect-magic" rel="nofollow">http://www.d20pfsrd.com/magic/all-spells/d/detect-magic</a>) & [SpellCraft](<a href="http://www.d20pfsrd.com/skills/spellcraft)*" rel="nofollow">http://www.d20pfsrd.com/skills/spellcraft)*</a> }} {{ =[[1d20 + 22 + (10* ?{Identify? 1/0 |0}) ]] ♦ [[1d20 + 22 + (10* ?{Identify? 1/0 |0}) ]]}}
Just curious, is there a way to change the color of the header on the default template? Optimally it would use the player's color.
No, all the colors are defined by the template itself. the Default Template is White Text on Purple Background. The Detect Magic screenshot is funky because I had the text highlighted at the time and they're links; so the colors are off. The Pathfinder sheet template is black and white; the default is purple. You can make your own templates to use as the GM with a Mentor subscription, but not as a player.
