Examples
The following code example accesses the first Signature Line control in the current view, and then calls the Sign(String, String, String, String) method to display the Sign dialog box for signing the entire form or set of data associated with the control. After the control is signed, the code displays a message box that shows the value of the SignatureAppearanceType property for the control.
SignatureLine mySignatureLine =
this.CurrentView.SignatureLines[0];
mySignatureLine.Sign(@"C:\Users\Larry\Pictures\MySignature.jpg",
"Larry Zhang", "Sales Associate", "larry@contoso.com");
MessageBox.Show(mySignatureLine.SignatureAppearanceType.ToString());
Dim mySignatureLine As SignatureLine = _
Me.CurrentView.SignatureLines(0)
mySignatureLine.Sign("C:\Users\Larry\Pictures\MySignature.jpg", _
"Larry Zhang", "Sales Associate", "larry@contoso.com")
MessageBox.Show(mySignatureLine.SignatureAppearanceType.ToString())
Remarks
The values for all of the parameters of the Sign(String, String, String, String) method are optional. To omit any parameter, pass a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) for that parameter. You can also pass String.Empty for the suggestedSigner
, suggestedSignerTitle
, and suggestedSignerEmail
parameters. If you pass a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) or String.Empty for a parameter and the value of the corresponding property was previously set programmatically or in the Signature Line control at design time, that value will be used when the form or set of data is signed.
