Root Element

Each signature is required to have a root element, <signature> in this case. The root tag accepts the attribute quality. It set's the quality when output as JPEG is selected. It may be set to anything between 0 - 100, default 90.

Example

<signature quality="90">
</signature>

The root element has two child elements, <defaults> and <layout>.

Defaults

Inside this element you may override an element's default value.

To override default element values the <defaults> tag is used. Inside the <defaults> tag elements are defined as usual.

Example

<signature>
    <defaults>
        <text color="#ff0000" />
        <shape type="rectangle" color="#0000ff" />
    </defaults>
</signature>

This sets the texts' default color to red and the rectangles' to blue.

User defined variables

New way of setting user variables available. Old way deprecated.

Layout

All text, shapes and images are controlled by sub elements to <layout>.

Please note that all items are added sequentially in the order listed in your signature's XML code. For example, if you draw some text first in your code, and then draw an opaque rectangle in that same location later on in your code, the rectangle will be drawn over top of that text, so only the rectangle will be visible. Make sure you draw your bottommost layers first to avoid that kind of problem.

Image

The <image> tag allows the user to include an image, chosen from the collection in the library section.
