add additional fields to the interactive stamp without losing the pop-up feature

Kimberlyng · 2025-07-01T15:41:58+00:00

There was an error rendering this rich post.

I'm currently working on customizing the engineering review stamp from the custom libraries, but I'm having trouble figuring out how to edit it without disabling the pop-up feature that appears when placing the stamp.

Ideally, I want the pop-up to remain active so that the reviewer can fill out the required fields immediately—without needing to edit or save the stamp beforehand.

Any guidance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Hello again,

I went ahead and made the stamp based on the pdf you attached. The process i used is as follows in case you need to make further modifications.

I used the Bluebeam "Submittal Status" stamp as a template.
Open the template stamp and "save as" your new stamp.
Open forms tab on the left edge of window.
1. Delete form fields you do not need (text boxes)
2. Remove the corresponding lines from the stamp code.
Copy one of the radio buttons and paste it on your stamp until the desired number is reached.
1. To edit these new buttons, rename them in the forms tab.
2. Open the stamp code and copy the line of code for one of the existing radio buttons.
3. Paste the line of code below the other radio buttons, one new line for each new button.
4. In the line of code, {value:"xxxxxx", description:"xxxxxx"}, the value for a button must match the name of the button in the forms list EXACTLY for the button to work. The description is the text that will show in the prompt when the stamp is placed.
5. Be careful when editing stamp code, it may be helpful to save a copy of the working stamp code before editing it in case you make a mistake.
Be sure not to delete the calculation form field and do not make any edits to this field.
Save stamp code and make any visual modifications you want to your stamp.

I may have missed some steps but this is the basic process and there are some discussions available in the community on some of these specific topics already. Let me know if you have any other questions!

What specifically are you trying to edit? Depending on the changes you want to make you may need to edit the Stamps javascript stamp code to reflect the desired changes. I have had some success recently editing stamps and retaining the popup feature so if you are able to provide a little more detail about the changes you would like to make, I may be able to help!
