How to have a stamp stick to cursor before placing? Like when selecting stamps from acrobat stamps toolbutton.

The issue is that I want my custom-made Tool Button to allow the user to select where he wants to place his stamp. The stamp I made for him.

This functionality exists with the stamps given by Adobe Acrobat. There, when you select a stamp, your cursor turns into the stamp and you can choose where it lands. Is this something I can code or is it not possible?

Thank you in advance!

Add the stamp to the Custom Stamps.

The issue is I'm doing this from the web view. I'm well aware of that when clicking stamps and then custom stamps you can select the stamp there and then hover before placing it but in this case it is not an option.

I would ideally want that this (hover before placing) can also happen with my custom made button.

1. Click on "my" button.

2. Cursor turns into stamp.

3. Hover.

4. Place.

I'm getting the feeling that this might not be possible to do but any code or methods that involve moving stamps and so on would be appreciated.

Why can I edit Stamp PDF's in browser?

Found out Stamp files are completely editable in browser.

Not sure how it's related, but OK...

It should work like that with any stamp. If it's not then maybe there's

something wrong with your code.
