Multiple Choice JotBlocks allow a signatory to select from a list of available options that you have made available. A Multiple Choice JotBlock is one of the Input Type selections available for a Text JotBlock when you have set the Input type to Signatory in template design mode.
A Multiple Choice JotBlock may be presented in 3 forms
- a Drop-Down list allowing 1 selection
- Radio Buttons allowing 1 selection
- Checkboxes allowing multiple selections
Drop-Down List
- Select whether to render to the document as Text (the T button) or a graphic (the check button)
- If choosing text, enter
- Text: to be displayed in the list
- Value: to be the value used either to render as Value or to be passed back in DocumentTRAK notifications containing JotBlock entered data
- You may still select to render a specific graphic, however this will revert the entire list back to render as graphic
- If choosing graphic, enter
- Text: to be displayed in the list
- Value: to be the value which may be passed back in DocumentTRAK notifications containing JotBlock entered data
- A graphic to be rendered, or none at all
Radio Buttons
You will use a radio button to represent selecting one of multiple selection areas on the form or document. For example, if your document contains 3 check boxes and only 1 should ever be selected, then you could use a radio button multiple choice JotBlock.
When you add an option to the list to be presented to the signatory you will be presented with a dialog asking you to draw where the rendered result should be placed. Then, you will specify the:
- Text: to be displayed in the list
- Value: to be the value which may be passed back in DocumentTRAK notifications containing JotBlock entered data
- The value or graphic to be rendered, or none at all
Checkboxes
You will use a checkbox to represent allowing many selection areas to be chosen on the form or document. For example, if your document contains 3 check boxes and combination of them may be selected, then you could use a checkbox multiple choice JotBlock.
As with the radio button control, when you add an option to the list to be presented to the signatory you will be presented with a dialog asking you to draw where the rendered result should be placed. Then, you will specify the:
- Text: to be displayed in the list
- Value: to be the value which may be passed back in DocumentTRAK notifications containing JotBlock entered data
- The value or graphic to be rendered, or none at all
