Muliple Architectural Stamps on Same titleblock?

[CarlDeskins]

I have a large job that will have multiple architects stamping their portions of the work.  Currently all the architectural team is working on the same architectural model.  We are all using the same titleblock.  The way the breakdown is working, each firm's work can be separated by sheets.  So there does not need to be more than one stamp per sheet.  But if we are using the same titleblock, when we go to put the stamp jpeg on the titleblock, that stamp will show on all sheets and not just on the sheets that they are responsible for.  Is there a way to get multiple JPEG stamps on titleblock family that can easily be turned on / off?  for example, on Sheet 1, person A's stamp can be on and then on sheet 2, person b's stamp can be on.  And then can that on/off be handled with some filter or something within a view template so I don't have to go to each sheet to turn something on/ off?  The only way I can think of doing this is duplicating the titleblock and renaming it slightly depending on who is going to stamp it.  But since there are about two hundred architectural sheets, that will take a lot of time to fix each sheet.

It'e better to create a Title Block Type for each stamp, and only turn that stamp ON for that type.

That's what I was going to do, but one of the other people in my office though they saw something once on how to do it without changing names.

What that person saw should be using a Family Type parameter to control which stamp to show.  Behold.

That is what we are looking to do.  Is there a way to work that into a view template?  

[ToanDN]

No.  they are titleblocks, not views.

Do you have a workflow available on how to do this? I am currently trying to do something similar for our company templates

- create a generic anno family 1, place stamp 1
- repeat for all stamps
- create a titleblock family, load generic anno family 1, place it
- select the stamp and click Label dropdown on the top option bar, add parameter, create a new family type parameter, set to instance (*)
- load all generic anno families from 2 to n in but do not place any
- load the titleblock family in project, create a sheet then you can select the titleblock on sheet and select different stamp from a dropdown.

(*) if you set the family type parameter above to type instead of instance, then you can create different titleblock types in the titleblock family, and use the dropdown to pre-assign a stamp for each type

Great thanks for your help. Ive created Prelim, Tender and Construction stamps which now appear perfectly.

Is there a way that i could create another selection of stamps that could be used at the same time?
