Trial Mode
Default Installation
The SDK should initially be installed using Trial Mode Licensing, which allows you to test features and functions, and develop applications but not distribute them. Downloading and installing ScanFix® Xpress in trial mode provides you with access to all features and functionality of the ScanFix Xpress product. E-mail support is available with the trial license.
When using the trial version of ScanFix Xpress, an evaluation dialog box will be displayed periodically. Applications built with a trial license can only be run on a computer that has ScanFix Xpress Licensing installed on it.
Changing Trial Mode Behavior
You have the flexibility to change the behavior of ScanFix Xpress in evaluation mode. Trial mode behavior can be set by setting the EvaluationMode property in the License object to one of these values:
- TrialDialog (default value) – A dialog box will be displayed at the first use of ScanFix Xpress and periodically thereafter. This evaluation mode is suitable for use in applications that have a visible user interface.
- Timeout – After a period of time the ScanFix control will stop working and will return errors. This evaluation mode is suitable for use in applications that do or do not have a visible user interface.
- Watermark – The images produced by ScanFix Xpress will be stamped with the word “Evaluation”. This evaluation mode is suitable for use in applications that do or do not have a visible user interface.
Changing ScanFix Xpress Edition
Your ScanFix Xpress Control behavior can be changed by setting the LicenseEdition property in the License object to one of these values:
- BitonalEdition - Cleanup for bitonal images only.
- BitonalPlusColorEdition - Cleanup for bitonal, grayscale and color images.
