Stamp jigs are used to insert components that consist of a single block. Refer to the following table if you are adding a new detail component (or editing one that was created using the New Component option) and you want to define a recipe that uses a stamp jig to insert the component in the specified view.
| Parameter Name | Description/Instructions |
|---|---|
| Layer key | Specifies the layer key for the layer to which the component will be assigned in the specified view. To specify a layer key or change the existing one, click the worksheet icon ( ) to access the Select Layer Key dialog box. |
| Block drawing location | The name of the drawing file (a DWG, DWT or DWS file) containing the blocks for the component table. |
| Block type | A drop-down list lets you specify either Fixed value or Database. If you select Fixed value, the value you enter will apply to every row in the size table for this component. If you select Database, a column will be added to the table allowing values to be entered for individual sizes. |
| Block | Displayed only if Block type is Fixed value, this parameter specifies the block definition to be inserted for this component. |
| Block field | Displayed only if Block type is Database, this parameter specifies the name of the component table column in which the block to be inserted is specified for each size. |
| Scaling type | A drop-down list lets you specify either Fixed value or Database. If you select Fixed value, the value you supply will apply to every row in the size table for this component. If you select Database, a column will be added to the table allowing values to be entered for individual sizes. |
| Scale | Displayed only if Scaling type is Fixed value, this parameter specifies the scaling value for the block. |
| Scale field | Displayed only if Scaling type is Database, this parameter specifies the name of the component table column in which the scaling value for the block is specified for each size. |
| Allow scaling | Specifies whether the command-line option for specifying scaling is displayed for this component. |
| Allow Rotation | Specifies whether the command-line option for specifying rotation is displayed for this component. |
| Allow X flip | Specifies whether the command-line option for flipping the block on its X axis is displayed for this component. |
| Allow Y flip | Specifies whether the command-line option for flipping the block on its Y axis is displayed for this component. |
| Allow Base point | Specifies whether the command-line option for specifying an alternate base point is displayed for this component. |
