Attack macro without "Selected"?

Greetings, I've just started playing around with macros for my DND 5E OGL character. I can get templates and text to work but not referencing an ability modifier. If I put the "selected" part of the macro in it works, but I get an error because I haven't selected anything. Is there a way to just roll dice + ability modifier + whatever else I choose without needing to select a token first? What's weird is that my spell casting ability in the attributes sheet references @{charisma_mod} but that doesn't work in my macro. Pared down macro for your perusal, once I get the attribute reference working on one roll I'll add it in elsewhere: Attack: [[d20+@{strength_mod}]] | [[d20]] Damage: [[2d6ro<2+1d8]] | [[2d6ro<2 +2d8]] Error message: TypeError: Cannot read property 'substring' of undefined Also, does anyone know how to reference the proficiency mod? I can't see it in the list of attributes. Do I need to make it myself? Thanks in advance, -D-

If the macro is on the character sheet, it should work without selected. Otherwise you need to use @{character_name|strength_mod}

Ok, thanks for the help I did some fiddling and got it to work now :) The macro went from this: [[d20+@{strength_mod}]] To this: [[d20+[[@{Yuro|PB}]]+[[@{Yuro|strength_mod}]]]] This is all nice and neat now and the mouseover shows: d20 outcome + Proficiency Bonus + Str mod as 3 digits without any messy calculations. 

You can also label them so you know what you are looking at.  At the end of any {} or [[ ]] you can insert [Label] and it will appear in the mouse-over for the Inline Roll.
