Regular text digital signatures for the approval section are supported.

Entering a comment on the Quick View screen is the same as typing the comment directly into the form. The designer has setup the Quick View feature for this step in the flow and assigned the role of manager to it. When a manager clicks on the Quick view icon, the approval control in the form will display as shown in the image below.
