Flams are created by certain drummer models only and cannot be influenced from the fill controls other than shifting the focus between style and drummer.

Work-around is to take a fill you like and then add some flams manually. A good way to do a snare flam in Jamstix is to put two snares one each hand for the same tick. Set the timing of the left hand snare to +40ms or so and change its sound to snare offset or snare rimshot.

Really you'd only have to do what Ralph suggested once and then copy both Snare hits and paste the result wherever you wanted it placed.
