Description

Inserts a barcode with the built-in mouse interface. The barcode's size is determined through the end-user. A cross cursor indicates where the barcode can be inserted. Changing the document aborts the insertion process.

Syntax

<void> BarcodeCollection.addWithMouse(<BarcodeType> barcodeType, <string> text, <FrameInsertionMode> insertionMode, [<EmptyRequestCallback> callback], [<ErrorCallback> errorCallback])

Parameters

Parameter	Description
barcodeType	The barcode type.
text	The text the barcode should encrypt.
insertionMode	Specifies how the text flow is handled.
callback	Optional. Is called when the operation successfully started.
errorCallback	Optional. Is called when the operation failed with an error.

Examples

The following example demonstrates BarcodeCollection.addWithMouse in a practical document-editing workflow. It inserts a barcode with the built-in mouse interface. The barcode's size is determined through the end-user. A cross cursor indicates where the barcode can be inserted. Changing the document aborts the insertion process.

function onTxError(error) {
    console.error("TX Text Control error:", error.msg);
    error.handled = true;
}

function addWithMouse(barcodeType) {
    TXTextControl.barcodes.addWithMouse(
        barcodeType,
        "Quarterly report",
        TXTextControl.FrameInsertionMode.AsCharacter,
        function() {
            console.log("add with mouse completed.");
        },
        onTxError
    );
}
