# Signer Signing Flow
This guide explains how signers complete a document in OpenSign and how features such as **Duplicate Widget Name**, **Auto Sign**, and the **Image Widget** work during the signing process.
---
# Duplicate Widget Name
The **Duplicate Widget Name** feature helps signers complete documents more efficiently by automatically populating widgets that share the same name.
## How it works
When multiple widgets of the **same type** have the **same widget name**, OpenSign treats them as linked fields.
After the signer fills in one of these widgets, the entered value is automatically copied to all other widgets with the same widget name.
### Example
- Three **Text** widgets named `address`
- Four **Email** widgets named `company_email`
When the signer enters a value in the first widget, all remaining widgets with the same name are automatically updated.
> **Note:** This feature does **not** apply to **Signature**, **Stamp**, or **Initials** widgets. These widgets use the **Auto Sign** feature instead. When clicked Auto Sign, completing the first Signature, Stamp, or Initials widget automatically fills all remaining matching widgets.
## Supported Widgets
Duplicate Widget Name is supported for the following widget types:
- Name
- Job Title
- Company
- Email
- Text
> **Important:** Widgets are linked only when both the **widget type** and the **widget name** are identical.
## Unsupported Widgets
Duplicate Widget Name is **not** supported for the following widget types:
- Number
- Date
- Checkbox
- Radio Button
- Dropdown
- Cells
- Attachment
Although you can assign the same widget name to these widgets while creating a document, they behave **independently** during the signing process.
### Example
Suppose a document contains two **Date** widgets with the same widget name, `agreement_date`.
When the signer selects a date in the first Date widget, the selected value is **not** copied to the second Date widget. Each Date widget must be completed individually.
The same behavior applies to all unsupported widget types listed above.

# Auto Sign
The **Auto Sign** feature allows signers to complete **Signature**, **Stamp**, or **Initials** only once. After the first widget is completed, OpenSign automatically fills all other matching widgets where **Auto Sign** is enabled.
This reduces repetitive actions and speeds up the signing process.
## Signature Widget
When **Auto Sign** is enabled:
1. Click the first Signature widget.
2. Create the signature by:
- Drawing
- Typing
- Uploading
- Selecting a previously saved signature (if available)
3. Click **Auto Sign**.
4. OpenSign automatically fills all remaining Signature widgets that have Auto Sign enabled.
The signer only needs to sign once.
---
## Stamp Widget
When **Auto Sign** is enabled:
1. Click the first Stamp widget.
2. Upload a stamp or select a previously saved stamp (if available).
3. Click **Auto Sign**.
4. All remaining Stamp widgets with Auto Sign enabled are automatically completed.
---
## Initials Widget
When **Auto Sign** is enabled:
1. Click the first Initials widget.
2. Create the initials by:
- Drawing
- Typing
- Uploading
- Selecting previously saved initials (if available)
3. Click **Auto Sign**.
4. OpenSign automatically fills all remaining Initials widgets that have Auto Sign enabled.
---
# Image Widget
The **Image** widget allows signers to upload an image during the signing process.
Common use cases include:
- Company logo
- Passport photo
- Profile picture
- Supporting document image
- Identity verification image
## How it works
1. Click the Image widget.
2. Select an image from your device.
3. Upload the image.
4. Click **Auto Sign**.
If multiple **Image** widgets have the **same widget name**, clicking **Auto Sign** automatically fills all Image widgets with that same name using the uploaded image.
Image widgets with **different widget names** are **not** linked and will not be updated.
> **Note:** Image widgets are linked only when both the **widget type** and **widget name** are identical.
