Drawing

A Drawing field opens a pad where the client draws with a finger, a stylus or the mouse, for example a sketch or marks on a diagram. It is available in HTML and PDF templates.

A new drawing field can be filled in by the client only. It is required in HTML templates and not required in PDF templates. For the settings that all fields share, such as the label, permissions, dependencies, style and position, see Field settings. For a handwritten signature, use a Signature field.

Image results of a CIV verification can also be written into a drawing field.

Values & Display

You can add a background image that the client draws on, for example a diagram of a car or a body. Drag the image to the upload area or click it to select a file: PNG, JPG, JPEG, GIF, SVG, WEBP or BMP, up to 300 KB. The image is resized to fit 800 pixels and placed in a 5:3 frame, with transparent margins when needed. To remove the image, click Remove Image.
