  • None Required - no signature required, section not digitally signed.
  • Text/Signature Image - This is the same as selecting the signature check box in previous versions. An uploaded signature image for the user will be used, if one is available. The user's name will be printed otherwise. The date of the signature, based on the user's browser settings, will also display.
  • Wet Signature -  will present the signature entry dialog to capture the user's signature. The date of the signature, based on the user's browser settings, will also display.

The default value is None Required. The Must sign property makes the signature required. With Must sign, a form cannot be submitted or a workflow is not sent to the next person until the signature is added. Lock sign means that the next person in the workflow can not remove the signature and edit the signed data. A good use case is an employee performance review where the manager starts the form, and signs the review, and sends it to the employee. You would check Lock sign so the employee cannot unsign and edit the data entered by the manager.

Checking Must Sign will disable the None Required option from the Signature dropdown and automatically selects Text/Signature Image. You can change the Signature dropdown to Wet Signature 

Sections that are hidden/not hidden via a rule or the Visible property in the designer, behave as stated below with respect to Must Sign:
