Signatures associated to workflow steps (Activiti) - (issue also in your wishlist)

Signatures associated to workflow steps (Activiti) feature, which is also in your wishlist.
Could you guide us to make a start?

Probably the best approach is to build a new FTL control component for Share based in activiti-transitions.ftl. You can include a new button "Signature" by using available signature action source code.

Let me know if this make sense for you.

Angel I am working on this issue, but I am stuck.
In this new e.g. sign-activiti-transitions.ftl, I guess we need to fire the onActionSign. But its params record and owner are unknown in the ftl.

YAHOO.Bubbling.fire("onActionSign",
{
    record: ,
    owner:
});

Am I in the right direction?

Probably this is not the right approach.
I understand you are including a button in order to sign a document included in the task. So, activiti-transitions.ftl is not the right component, you should inspect packageitems.ftl and probably this code can help you to customise the picker in order to add sign action.

I had been trying overriding bpm:packageActionGroup with a custom action list, but did not work. packageitems.ftl does not seem to handle custom action lists. E.g.:
repo/..../...-model.xml

<type ....
   <property name="bpm:packageActionGroup">
      <default>sign_package_item_actions</default>
    </property>

share/.../share-config-custom.xml

  <action-group id="sign_package_item_actions">
	<action idref="sign-action-pdf" /> 
  </action-group>

Will follow your lead on packageitems.ftl and come back with more. Thank you.

Probably is required to include YUI sign action JavaScript invocation in Object Finder:
https://github.com/Alfresco/share/blob/2503c4738893e6f55c8a0e5b8ae98741edf0f093/web-framework-commons/src/main/webapp/components/object-finder/object-finder.js#L1421

I've never try such a customisation, but it looks feasible.
