SignaturePad
The "SignaturePad" widget allows users to sign digitally - they will be able to use a mouse, stylus, or finger on a touchscreen device to draw their signature. It captures the signature as an image file which is then stored within the applications.

SignaturePad Properties
These are the basic properties of the SignaturePad widget. To access the properties tab, click on the "equalizer" icon (3rd from left) on the top-right of the screen. Now, let’s take a look at the features available in the Properties tab:
ID - A unique alpha-numeric code that’s auto-generated when the component is placed on the canvas.
Visible - A checkbox that lets you show/hide the component on app deployment.
Hide/Show Element - Lets you set the condition to either hide/show the component after app deployment.
Label - Display the name of the component on the app.
Bind - (…link to the bind page)
Placeholder - Text that's usually displayed within the widget's text area - ideally to guide the users with examples or a brief of the widget.
