More customizations possible in SmartCapture
Planned
I’ve been working with the program for over a year now and here are somethings that I think would greatly improve the program:
-being able to copy and paste texts so that you can ensure all texts are the same size, font, etc. Or show font size on size sliding scale via a number or something equivalent, so sizes can be matched easier.
-Make something so that you can accentuate any icon you want to stand out. For example a glow behind, or ability to change the size. I tried to put a filled in text box behind an icon to do this and the program did not like it. Layering might be a good added option.
-add shapes that can be filled with color or not. Clean circles, squares, etc make the preplan more professional rather than free drawing. I currently use a ruler and apple pen for straight lines. Also have the option to manipulate the size and color of the shapes, including line thickness. Circles can be ovals, squares can be rectangles. Add to that arrows that you can customize to the same standard mentioned above. I would like our preplans to look professional and not like my child drew on them.
-I also noticed that depending on how the iPad is held the icons change size. It would be nice if they scaled up or down automatically when orientation of the iPad changes. This affects how SmartView shows what you’ve created in SmartCapture, sometimes not for the good.
I have more suggestion but will leave it at that and see if APX can do any of these things. FYI the preplan program we had before APX had all these abilities, but lacked in many areas that SmartCapture offers.

Hi Cory,
Thank you so much for your feedback. We value all suggestions and input from our customers.
With respect to your ideas about creating uniformity in text and font size, we can revisit the configuration of text annotations to help with maintaining consistency across building records. Re-sizing icons is a feature that is currently on our developmental roadmap. Creating straight lines is a function that we will bring into consideration for our development team. Finally, we plan to look into the potential to adjust icon sizes, as well.
We appreciate your thoughtful suggestions. Thank you again for taking the time to provide your thoughts!
Best regards,
Tarra Murphy
