SignPad


SignPad component allows users to input signature with a touch screen or touch pen.

To add a SignPad, click the SignPad in the Insert Input Component tab and drag-and-drop it to the band.

To add FixedTableSignPad, click the Change Input Type > SignPad pop-up menu of the fixed table cell.

The input signature on the SignPad is saved as an image. You can set the height, width, and image format of the signature.

After the user has inputted a signature, the viewer can send  SignedValue or  UnSignedValue property value that you already pre-defined to other applications instead of sending image data.

If you want to fill in the same signature on multiple signature components in a report, set the reusable signature name by using SetReusableSignName.

If you fill in a signature on a signature component with the reusable signature name and then click on another signature component with the same signature name, a Reuse button will be displayed on the signature toolbar.

You can use the same signature by clicking the Import signature button.

Note that the import signature function cannot be used in the following cases:

Even when the reusable signature name is set using the SetReusableSignName function and there are multiple signatures with the same reusable signature name, but the user does not directly sign any one of them.

When you reset the signature data in another signature that uses the reusable signature name.

Some signpad types are able to save reusable signature data but may be unable to use the import function due to some signpad types not supporting the sign toolbar.

Refer to the table below for detailed operating rules.
