Hi All,
Does anyone have an experience working with digital signature? I would like to have a field where users can manually draw their signature in that box/field and then upload it to the database as an image. Will start by doing on the android platform first !
Any idea how to start?
Thanks !

You could start by looking at the pen and the brush tools.

With the image (fake field) for signatures having this sort of script:
Code: Select all
on mouseEnter
choose brush tool
set the brushColor to red
end mouseEnter

Take a look at the "Signature" widget, that is what you are looking for!

Hi richmond,
So by using the pen and brush tools it will allow the user to “draw” in the field? So what does it count as? A text or an image?
And also what is the difference with mouseup and mouseEnter?
Thanks!

Hi Klaus, long time no see! I have messaged you on Skype but I guess you are not using it anymore? How does the signature widget work in term of the scripting part and what does it return as? How does it look like because tried to search on livecode wiki but couldn’t found it. Is it also only Available for indy license and above?
Thanks!

Please try that widget!
It is "only" supplying the neccessary means to write a signature -> "image" and pencil.
But does it automatically, then you can export this as an image or print to PDF and do whatever needs to be done with that.

Just curious: where on the web can one find the documentation for the signature widget?

Good question, Richard!
In principle, that widget is self-explainig, create it and start signing.
But a TAD more documentation would definitvely not hurt, same for some other widgets.

I do a lot of reading on mobile devices, where no IDE is available. I'm probably not alone.

And also what is the difference with mouseup and mouseEnter?
mouseUp is sent when the end-user releases the dominant button on their mouse,
mouseEnter is sent when an end-user moves their pointer inwith the object that contains the
mouseEnter script.
This is "baby stuff" that can be readily worked out by a quick look in the built-in Documentation.

Hi Richmond,
Noted, because I’ve never use mouseEnter before so I just wanna check before I get things wrong. So for the pen and brush tool, what would the field contain at the end?
Thanks!

Come on, there are no THAT much controls in the tools palette!
It looks like a pencil over a rectangle with rounded corners.

Documentation can be found in the Dictionary.
Open the dictionary and click on the guides tab.
Scroll down towards the bottom and you will see all the widget docs.
