Is there anyway to prevent people from leaving partial signatures. We have some people that think they are so smart to avoid signing a required field that they place a few dots in the signature section. Anything such as it tracking the amount of space the mouse moves. Its a great form guys!

To my understanding you are looking for a way to prevent users from only partially signing your form signature field.

Based on the situation I do understand the frustration that a problem like this could cause.

However, unfortunately to my knowledge I don't know of us having a way around that. The only thing I can think of would be for you to disavow it and ask the user to redo that particular field using an edit link.

Also, though I would like to point out that we do have MouseStats Widget which basically tracks how long they spend on the form and each form field. Maybe this could help you?
