Please give a brief summary of your issue:
Signature action is lost when hiding signature field, even if i it is set to visible later.
Please describe your issue and provide steps to reproduce it:
We have PDFs with signatures. Some of thes signatures have the “When Signed”-Action set to “Mark as Read-Only” for all fields:
Under specific circumstances we are hiding these fields in the WebViewer. After downloading the PDF, the “When Signed”-Action is missing in the Signature field:
Reproducing is easy with this code:
WebViewer(
{
path: "../lib",
initialDoc: "../files/test.pdf",
fullAPI: true,
},
this.viewer.nativeElement
).then((instance) => {
this.wvInstance = instance;
const { documentViewer, Annotations, annotationManager } = instance.Core;
documentViewer.on("annotationsLoaded", () => {
annotationManager.getAnnotationsList().forEach((annot) => {
if (
annot instanceof instance.Core.Annotations.SignatureWidgetAnnotation
) {
annot.Hidden = true;
annot.Hidden = false;
}
});
});
});
I also found out, that if i check the field if it is really a signature field, there is a second property hidden instead of Hidden. If i use the lowercase property, it works as expected (but i have to explicitly unhide the field, that it works).
I don’t know if this is expected behavior, but in my opinion, the “When Signed”-Action should not be changed when hiding or unhiding the field.
