Properties of a Mobile capture control

Configure the Web capture control under the following tabs:

General

Name

A unique name for the Mobile capture control.

Security token

Makes the information in the form secure. See Security tokens.

Session ID

A global variable, form variable, or form control that is used as session ID at runtime.

Configuration
Folder type

The folder type to use while creating a new folder at runtime.

If not specified, the default folder type is used.

Folder ID

The ID of the folder under which a new document is created. The folder ID can be a global variable, form variable or a form field, or a static value.

  • If the folder ID is mapped to a variable, control or property without a value, a new folder and new document are created and both variables/controls are set to their respective IDs.
  • If you map the document ID to a variable, control or property, or provide a static value, this folder ID value is not used.

Document type

A document type to use while creating a new document. If not specified, the default document type is used.

Document ID

The ID of the document where the image is to be added. The document ID can be a variable, control or a property of the document, or an inline value.

If mapped to a variable, control or property with no value, a new document is created for the captured image and the variable or field is set to the ID of the document.

Accept

When you add a Mobile capture control to a phone form, the Accept, Reject and Done button controls are automatically added to the form and mapped to the corresponding properties.

Note At runtime, the Accept and Reject buttons are available on the form; the Done button only appears once you accept the captured image; the Done button is used to confirm accepting the image.

Reject
Done
Scan/VRS profile

The scan/VRS profile to use to help you adjust user interface of phone application and process captured image. The following data becomes available from the scan profile to the Mobile capture control:

  • Paper Size, including the custom long edge and short edge lengths if custom is chosen.

  • Orientation

  • Resolution

  • Color

  • Deskew

  • Auto crop

  • Delete blank page

  • Tiff compression

  • Compression quality

  • Advanced EVRS settings

When you view the JavaScript generated by the control at run time, these values are available such that a phone application can use it.

Note If a Scan/VRS profile is not used, no image processing occurs.

Page detection

Allows page detection at runtime.

Acquisition constraints
Axis threshold

The area in percentage for a captured image.

The axis threshold can be between 1% to 100%. (Default: 75%)

Stability threshold

The time a device remains in a stable position before a picture is taken. If exceeded, the device is restricted from taking a picture. The stability delay threshold can be 0-100. (Default: 95%)

Stability indicator enabled

Enables the stability indicator on the native capture control.

Levelness threshold enabled

Allows you to set the degree of levelness for the device before taking a picture. You can set a threshold for each of the following:

  • Declination pitch: The threshold can be 0-360. (Default: 0 degrees)

  • Declination roll: The threshold can be 0-360. (Default: 0 degrees)

  • Threshold pitch: The threshold can be 0-360. (Default: 3 degrees)

  • Threshold roll: The threshold can be 0-360. (Default: 3 degrees)

Frame
Width

See Design properties of a control.

Height
Outer frame color

Color of the area outside the frame that appears over the capture control.

Border thickness

Thickness of the frame border that appears over the capture control.

Border color

Color of the frame border that appears over the capture control.
