Hello Janick,

We have a separate feature request for an Image Editor that you can follow - this is the Blazor counter-part of the linked AJAX component.

Apart from the lack of image annotation, what else makes the Signature component unsuitable for your use case?

Regards,

I updated the title to focus on drawing. I am leaving the page as it is for now, so the community can vote and comment on the idea. This will let us gauge the interest in such a component, and thus, prioritize accordingly.

The RadImageEditor control in our WebForms suite lets the end user draw on a canvas, so you could use that to capture a signature: https://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/imageeditor/examples/drawing/defaultcs.aspx. It does require a WebForms project, however. You can also download the source code of the component to see how we use the canvas and context and implement something similar on your own on top of a simple canvas element, without a component of ours at this point.

If by "inking" you mean recognizing handwriting to accept as user input instead of a keyboard - that's a massive feature that is well beyond the scope of UI components. At the very least, it requires some sort of AI to power it, and then it also has to be able to handle various languages. Even the current operating systems are not very advanced in this regard yet.

That said, I am leaving this idea public in the portal so we can see what the community thinks and gauge the interest in a similar signature/canvas/image editor component.
