Display selected dropdown result in chatlog

Hi, I'd like to know if it's possible to display the word that is selected in the dropdown. I have a dropdown that shows the names of the various Attributes of a character. Then it shows a dropdown containing the various names of the Skills of the character. These are added to dice for a result. So far so good. I'd like to have the selected Attribute's name displayed in the output that shows up in the chat window. Right now it displays:  Thoth tries something ill-advised. Thoth: rolling 1d10+1d10+4 + 0 ( 9)+( 1)+4+0= 14 I'd like it to instead display: Thoth rolls Intelligence + Athletics. Thoth: rolling 1d10+1d10+4 + 0 ( 9)+( 1)+4+0= 14 Is this a thing?

Not with the Roll Query. An API script could give you something similar by examining the attributes used in the expression. The best you can probably do without one is add labels to the values of the Roll Query. 

You could include the name of the skill in brackets when you build the roll query list. This way you could hover over the roll and see in the tooltip what skill(s) was chosen. For (a brief) example: @{selected|token_name} rolls [[ 1d10 + 1d10 + ?{First skill?|Acrobatics, [[@{selected|acrobatics}]] [Acrobatics]|Appraise, [[@{selected|appraise}]] [Appraise] } + ?{Second skill?|Jump, [[@{selected|jump}]] [Jump]|Stealth, [[@{selected|stealth}]] [Stealth] } ]] With a Pro subscription, you could add a Roll Template to a character sheet that might display this directly in chat. I will have to test more to see. EDIT: Modified example to add a second skill choice. Note that you want the roll query prompt of the second choice to be different from the first one, otherwise the roll query will use the first answer again.

Thanks. That worked really well.

You could use the power cards api and create a (rather long) script that looks like this !power {{ --name|?{What attribute?|acrobatics|bluff} check --?? ?{What attribute?|acrobatics|bluff} == acrobatics ?? Roll| [[1d20 + @{selected|acrobatics}]]  --?? ?{What attribute?|acrobatics|bluff} == bluff ?? Roll| [[1d20 + @{selected|bluff}]]  }} with a result of  or this is the pathfinder system, but I'm sure something similar could be made for whatever system you're using.

However it is worth noting that use of Power Cards does require the Creator of the game having a  Pro subscription and therefore access to the API!

Thats true. I just assumed as much since this was in the API forum. :P

Franky H. said: Thats true. I just assumed as much since this was in the API forum. :P Always worth clarifying that point when the OP has a subscription level other than Pro... just to avoid confusion don't'cha'know :) Also helps others who may come seeking the same info ;) And a mod's job is to point out the obvious sometimes lol

the shame....
