E-sign a form using scribble signatures

Name - You can identify a form component easily with its unique name both in the form and in the rule editor, but the name must not contain spaces or special characters.

Title - With its Title, you can easily identify a component in a form and by default, the title appears on top of the component. If you do not add a title, the name of the component is displayed instead of the title text.

Allow Rich Text for Title - This features enables users to format plain text titles, incorporating features like bold, italic, underlined text, various fonts, font sizes, colors, and additional option to enhance visual presentation and customization. It offers greater flexibility and creative control in making titles stand out within documents, websites, or applications.
Upon selecting the checkbox for Allow Rich Text for Title , formatting options become visible to style the component’s title. To access all available formatting options, you can click on the tab.

Hide Title - Select the option to hide the component’s Title.

Required Field - Select the option to make the field mandatory.

Required Field Message - The Required Field Message is a customizable message displayed to users when they attempt to submit a form without filling in a mandatory field.

Data Model Bind Reference - A bind reference is a reference to a data element that is stored in an external data source and used in a form. The bind reference allows you to dynamically bind data to form fields, so that the form can display the most up-to-date data from the data source. For example, a bind reference can be used to display a customer’s name and address in a form, based on the customer’s ID entered into the form. The bind reference can also be used to update the data source with data entered into the form. In this way, AEM Forms enables you to create forms that interact with external data sources, providing a seamless user experience for collecting and managing data.

Hide Object - Select the option to hide the component from the form. The component remains accessible for other purposes, such as using it for calculations in the Rule Editor. This is useful when you need to store information that doesn’t need to be seen or directly changed by the user.

Disable Object - Select the option to disable the component. The disabled component is not active or editable by the end user. The user can see the value of the field but cannot modify it. The component remains accessible for other purposes, such as using it for calculations in the Rule Editor.

Aspect Ratio - The aspect ratio in a Scribble Signature component defines the proportional relationship between its width and height.

Field Layout - The Field Layout option determines how form elements, including the labels (captions) and error messages, are positioned relative to the component. The Caption and Error as Top of Widget positions the field’s caption (label) and error messages above the component. Inherit from Adaptive Form Configuration uses the default field layout settings specified in the Adaptive Form configuration.

CSS Class - The CSS class allows you to apply custom styles to a component by assigning one or more CSS classes defined in your stylesheet. It enables consistent styling and layout customization across your Adaptive Form.

Short description - A short description is a brief text explanation that provides additional information or clarification about the purpose of a specific form field. It helps the user understand what type of data should be entered into the field and can provide guidelines or examples to help ensure that the information entered is valid and meets the desired criteria. By default, short descriptions remain hidden. Enable the Always show short description option to display it below the component.

Always show short description - Enable the option to display the Short description below the component.

Long Description - It refers to additional information or guidance that is provided to the user to assist them in filling out a form field correctly. It appears when the user clicks the help icon (i) placed next to the component. It provides more detailed information than a form field’s label or placeholder text, and is designed to help the user understand the requirements or constraints of the field. It can also offer suggestions or examples to make filling out the form easier and more accurate.

Screen Reader Precedence - Screen Reader Precedence refers to additional text that is specifically intended to be read by assistive technologies, such as screen readers, used by visually impaired individuals. This text provides an audio description of the form field’s purpose, and can include information about the field’s title, description, name, and any relevant messages (Custom text). The screen reader text helps ensure that the form is accessible to all users, including those with visual impairments, and provides them with a complete understanding of the form field and its requirements.
