peliosis Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 Is it possible to stamp a string parameter? In this case I'd like to stamp font names, "file" param of font sop. I wrote : stamp("../","blah","Courier"), but it looks like stamp function doesn't eat strings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What you might be able to do is to put it into either an Attribute (depending on how you're using this), or use Switch SOP to handle the switching based on your stamp number/IDs. Perhaps that might help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peliosis Posted August 1, 2006 Author Share Posted August 1, 2006 Thanks for all clues. I succeeded but in yet different way. Don't have a clue how to stamp strings using copy sop. The stamping parameter values doesn't like strings nor string producing expressions. I don't need it anymore but would like to know how to use it. Here is a file with random font stamping.
