~~NOTOC~~ > User manual #@IC_HTML@# > Functions > Characteristics ====== Manually stamping ====== ---- A characteristic can be →[[en:infra-convert:user:terms#Stamp/stamps|stamped]] by text input with this function. It is required especially if the drawing file cannot be formatted in an interpretable manner (Graphic file, see →[[en:infra-convert:user:terms#Drawing data format|Drawing data format]]). The characteristic is not automatically interpreted from a drawing entry, but from the entered text, in comparison to the [[en:infra-convert:user:functions:ballooning|Automatic stamping]]. **The stamp-with-dialogue** The stamp-with dialog allows you to specify basic characteristic properties when stamping. It is displayed at the bottom left of the drawing window when the **Stamp tool** is activated. In addition to the stamp number with prefix and suffix (1), these are the category and tag (2) as well as the general tolerance tables to be used (4). The set of selected tolerance tables can be added to a quick selection (4). Use the **Reset** button ({{:en:infra-convert:user:interface:icon_zuruecksetzen.png?nolink&15|}}) to restore the default values. {{ :en:infra-convert:user:functions:stempeln_mit_dialog.png?nolink |}} **Note** The preselection of tolerance table and stamp number via the Stamp with dialog is available from program version 4.4.0. \\ //**__Content__**//  • [[#Workflow]]\\  • [[#Customization]] \\ ==== Workflow ==== {{page>en:infra-convert:user:functions:ballooning_man_workflow_en}} \\ ==== Customization ==== The function can be influenced via the following settings: **Creating characteristics** Change settings for creating characteristics.\\ **See** Settings > Settings > [[en:infra-convert:user:config:features|Characteristics]] **General tolerance tables** Change the underlying general tolerance tables, from which tolerance values for non-individually tolerated measurements are applied.\\ **See** Settings > Project settings > [[en:infra-convert:user:config:tolerancetables|Tolerance tables]] **Stamp settings** Change underlying settings for stamp.\\ **See** Settings > Settings > [[en:infra-convert:user:config:stamps|Stamp]] **Stamp templates** Change the graphical display of the stamp.\\ **See** Settings > Project settings > [[en:infra-convert:user:config:stamppattern|Stamp templates]] ---- **Go to previous page**\\ Functions > Characteristics > [[en:infra-convert:user:functions:ballooning_preset|Stamp with preset]] **Go to next page**\\ Functions > Characteristics > [[en:infra-convert:user:functions:duplicate|Duplicate and re-stamp]]
