The signature property type stores a signature entered by a user on the Agentry Client. This is an actual, written signature that can be entered on the device using a stylus or some other electronic pen. This signature is stored internally as a bitmap image. Normally only transaction definitions contain signature properties.
Signature properties may not be initialized to the value of another property. Also, it is outside the normal usage to target an object property with a transaction property of type signature. The primary intent of the signature property is to capture a signature in bitmap format on the client device and to then transfer that bitmap image to the back end system as a part of the transaction’s synchronization processing.
This property type includes definable behaviors covering the control that will display the property, and the minimum height and width of the bitmap image captured to treat as a valid signature.
This property type has several associated SDML data tags for accessing its bitmap data. The information on these should be reviewed when working with this property type.
