I'd like to add the android pattern lock to a custom field when adding a ticket.
We repair phones and need to have the pin-code from the device. Most of the times a normal pin-code is enough, but sometimes we have customers who are using a swipe pattern.

I found a javascript sollution here:
http://ignitersworld.com/lab/patternLock.html

Can anyone explain me (sorry, I'm a javascript n00b :P) how to implement this?

When implemented, I'd like to have a popup box with the pattern. After that it must be saved somehow :P

Thnx in advance!

Hello

To do this you would need to create a new custom field plugin. If you have php development experience, you can view the existing custom field plugins in the components/com_fss/plugins/custfield. You will have to use the custom field to output the relevant HTML and javascript, and save as needed.

We can look at creating this plugin for you for a small fee if needed. Let me know if this is what you want.

Hello Adam,

Thank you for your offer :) .. Of course I'll keep it in mind, but first want to try myself for learning purposes.

In your KB is referenced to a sample file (sample.php), but can't find it anywhere.

Hello

Not sure why its not currently in the package for the component. I have attached a copy of the sample to this ticket. You can upload it to components/com_fss/plugins/custfield

Its worth looking at the other custom fields for other examples of more complex plugins, but the basic calls should be there.

Thanks
