The Avonni Input Pen transforms your touchscreen device into a digital canvas. Write, draw, or sketch with customizable pen styles, colors, and eraser tools. Zoom in and out as needed, and easily integrate your creations into other digital documents.
This guide will show you how to add a custom toolbar to the signature pad screen.
This tutorial will guide you through saving the signature as a file.
The Avonni Input Pen component's Input Pen Mode attribute offers several options to accommodate user needs and preferences.
Drawn
This mode is tailored for precision drawing. It provides a fine-tipped pen style, ideal for detailed sketches or handwriting. Users can create intricate designs or write in a natural, hand-drawn style.
Paint
Designed for a broader stroke, the Paint mode simulates a paintbrush effect. It is perfect for users looking to create artistic and expressive strokes, similar to painting on a canvas.
Ink
Ink mode replicates the feel of an ink pen. It offers a smooth and flowing writing experience, suitable for regular handwriting or calligraphic styles. This mode is ideal for users who prefer a classic pen-and-ink feel.
Erase
The Erase mode is essential for corrections and modifications. It allows users to remove specific parts of their drawing or text, providing a straightforward way to rectify mistakes or change the created content.
When the Show Signature Pad is activated, a signature line is added at the bottom of the drawing area. This is helpful if you need to transform your drawing area into a signature pad.
The 'Hide Controls' toggle in the Avonni Input Pen gives you more space to work. It temporarily hides the toolbar, usually containing tools like pen styles, colors, and erasers.
The Advanced Options in the Avonni Input Pen component enhance user control through three key features:
Toolbar Customization: Users can simplify their toolbar by disabling selected buttons, creating a more streamlined and focused interface.
Pen Size Adjustment: This option allows you to modify the pen size, accommodating various drawing styles and detail levels.
Interaction Disablement: Users can temporarily turn off pen interactions, preventing accidental marks and preserving the current state of their work
