2.9. LincDoc 3.2.6 Release Notes

Published on: 23 Oct 2013

This section contains information about the LincDoc 3.2.6 release. This release contains both new features and corrected defects from previous releases.

New Features

The following new features have been added with this release:

Uploading a Signature Stamp (2726)

You can now add a signature stamp to your user profile. A signature stamp is an image that can be used in place of a script font representation of a signature. It works with either a clickwrap or authenticated digital signature.

For example:

Signature stamps allow you and other users to personalize a signature so it can be quickly determined if a document was "signed" with something unique to the signer.

Proceed to one of the following sections for more information:

Adding a Signature Stamp

You specify your individual signature stamp using the Signature Stamp options on the Preferences dialog box (which is accessed via the User Profile button's profile option).

Click the upload button.
The File Upload dialog box appears.
Click the Browse button to locate the file you want to use as your signature stamp.
Note: You can upload JPG and PNG image files.
Once selected, the file's name is displayed on the File Upload dialog box.
Click Upload.
The selected file is displayed to the right of the Signature Stamp option on the Preferences dialog box.

Note: You can remove the selected signature stamp file by clicking the Clear button (to the left of the image).

Using a Cursive Signature Image

With the implementation of signature stamps, you now have the option of having LincDoc automatically create a cursive signature image if no signature stamp has been specified for the user signing the form.

This behavior is controlled using the Create cursive signature image if no stamp present check box on the Fields/Sections tab. This option is only present when LincDoc Login is selected from the Signature type drop-down list.

For more information, see Using Signature Stamps.

Dynamically Defining a Section's Description (3652)

You can now use conditions and custom text to create dynamic section long descriptions to complement dynamic section headings. You activate this new option using the dynamic check box on the Fields/Sections tab.

Note: This option only appears when you click a section in the Fields/sections list on the left side of the tab.

When you click the dynamic check box, the configure dynamic header button appears.

Click the configure dynamic header button to access the Configure header for dialog box, which allows you to fully configure a dynamic long description for the section.

Using this dialog box, you can create a dynamic section description by creating a condition and then defining the text for the description.

Create a condition using the options in the condition column. For more information, see Creating and Editing Custom Conditions.
In the header column, specify the text that will be used if the corresponding condition is true using any combination of the following two options:

Type text directly in the large text box.
Use the drop-down list above the large text box to insert the current user's username, the current user's regular name, or field values from your form.

(optional) Add additional conditions using the button to the right of the large text box.

Note: The first condition in the list that is true is the one that is used to dynamically create the section header.
Once you are done defining your condition, click save at the top of the dialog box.
In the following example, a long description has been designed to use an applicant's first and last name.

Exporting Database Tables to a CSV File (3679)

You can now download database table contents to a CSV file on your local system. This feature allows you to edit the table data in a CSV file, and the upload the altered data back into your database (using the corresponding upload button).

For example, you can create an updated CSV file with newly added data, and then upload the new file data to your database. You can also verify the current contents of a database table using a local file without having to connect directly to the database.

Tip: It is recommended that you name your CSV file using the corresponding table name. In addition, the first row of the file should be a header row, and it should contain the column names.

This option is available in the following two locations:

On the Databases dialog box (which is accessed using the databases option from the system button)
From the codelist dialog box (which is used when creating a JDBC codelist)
