Drawing free hand annotation at right angle

[Matt Parizeau]

Q:

We are trying to draw a free hand annotation at 90 degrees. In WebViewer it becomes curved but in Adobe it works fine. Is there a way to fix this?

A:

By default WebViewer will perform some smoothing on FreeHand annotations. You can disable this by setting the shouldSimplifyPath property on the FreeHand annotation prototype. You can just call this code at the beginning of your config file:

Annotations.FreeHandAnnotation.prototype.shouldSimplifyPath = false;
