Overview

FastField allows form users to annotate (i.e., sketch, draw) on top of embedded photos in a form, which is useful for providing visual details or emphasizing areas in need of attention.

  1. Add an Embedded Photo field to your form in the Legacy Form Builder.

  2. Select Upload Photo and choose the image that you want the user to annotate on top of.

    • This will be the sketch pad. You could upload a blank white image, an image of graph paper, a diagram, a site map, etc.
