Signature Pad Custom Control For XMod Pro
This Custom Control for XMod Pro Forms gives you the ability to take true digital signatures through a Signature Pad field for your DNN Forms!
Benefits & Features: We developed this Custom Control for a project where the client needed to capture a written digital signature. Sometimes called Electronic Signatures or e-signatures, the addition of this control to your XMod Pro toolkit allows you to capture digital signatures in your projects and modules / solutions.
- Great for iPad and Android Tablet use for forms that need digital signatures from users.
- The digital signature is effective when used with a mouse or trackpad, and is excellent when using a pen, stylus or touch/tablet. New tablet devices such as the Microsoft Surfact Pro 3 draw fantastic signatures. Android and iPad tablets draw quite well with a finger or touch and perfectly with a pen stylus.
- SignaturePad is a jQuery plugin for creating an HTML5 canvas-based signature pad.
- With this XMod Pro custom control install kit, a demo example is installed and ready to use/reuse within your XMod Pro Forms. Installation is a snap, simply place onto a page and push the install button to complete the installation process and you are good to go!
- Signatures drawn in the field are recorded in a JSON array that can be saved to the database as a string, and can be called later to regenerate and display a signature in the canvas. An included XMod Pro demo Template shows a generated signature.
- We recommend that, in addition to saving the signature, that you setup db fields for recording FirstName, LastName, DateCreated, and UserIPAddress, all of which are easy to do with standard XMod Pro fields/Tokens.
- The Module Kit installer will setup an XMod Pro form example using countries/states as a starter example for you to work from.
- Updated in Version 1.0.9 > Added an XMod Pro Template to the kit as an example of how to display the rendered signature outside of a Form.
- Updated in Version 1.0.8 > Added update to work with XMod Pro validation for required signatures when submitting the Form.
