Updating a Stamp

A stamp in your Presets list does not only contain its drawings, but also its properties. If you have made any changes to the properties of your stamp, and wish for those properties to be set automatically whenever you use that stamp, you can update the stamp. This will save the current properties of the stamp into its preset.

Once that is done, the current properties of the stamp will be loaded the next time you select it from the Presets list, even after you close and reopen the project.

NOTE You cannot update the drawings in a stamp. You can only update its parameters. If you need to use different drawings for your stamp, you must create a new stamp—see Creating a Stamp and Creating a Multi-Drawing Stamp.
