Enhanced `DocumentService` with a new method `GetSenderDocumentDetailsByEnvelopeIdAsync` to fetch sender document details by envelope ID. Introduced JSON handling improvements with `JsonSerializerOptions`.
These changes improve support for receiver-related operations and extend document-related capabilities.
The following files have been removed as part of a significant refactor or deprecation of envelope-related PDF viewing and signature functionality:
- `EnvelopeReceiverPage.razor`: A detailed PDF viewer with signature handling and interactive features.
- `EnvelopeReceiverPage_DxPdfViewer.razor`: A simplified PDF viewer using the `DxPdfViewer` component.
- `EnvelopeReceiverPage_DxReportViewer.razor`: A report viewer using the `DxReportViewer` component.
- `EnvelopeReceiverPage_embed.razor`: A minimalistic PDF viewer using the `<embed>` HTML tag.
These removals indicate a transition to a new approach for handling PDF viewing and related features or their complete deprecation.
A detailed migration plan has been added to replace the DevExpress PDF viewer in `EnvelopeSenderEditorPage.razor` with a new WebAssembly (WASM)-based PDF editor component.
The plan outlines the scope, constraints, and implementation strategy, ensuring feature parity, backend compatibility, and minimal disruption to the existing user experience. Key decisions include creating a reusable `SenderPdfImageEditor` component, using server-side PDF rasterization, and removing `esid` and `IMemoryCache`-based session persistence.
The document also defines testing and acceptance criteria to verify the migration's success, focusing on visual fidelity, functionality, and backend contract consistency.

- Styled the `AccessCode` section in `sender-page.css` for a responsive and user-friendly design.
- Improved error handling for clipboard operations with console warnings.
These changes improve the user experience by allowing senders to view and copy access codes for receivers.
Introduced functionality to queue and send invitation emails to envelope receivers. Added new dependencies and private properties to support email handling, including repositories for `EmailTemplate` and `EmailOut`, as well as configuration services for `MailParams` and `DispatcherParams`.
Added the `QueueInvitationEmailsAsync` method to generate personalized email content using placeholders and store outgoing emails in the `EmailOut` repository. Introduced a helper method `ReplacePlaceHolders` for placeholder substitution in email templates.
Updated the `Handle` method to invoke `QueueInvitationEmailsAsync` after setting the envelope status to `EnvelopeQueued`. These changes ensure a modular and reusable email queuing process.
Introduced a new feature for submitting signatures, including
backend and frontend changes. Added `SignatureSubmitDto` and
`SubmitAsync` in `SignatureService` to handle signature data
submission. Implemented a new `Submit` endpoint in
`SignatureController` to validate and process signature payloads.
Updated pipeline behaviors to include `SaveSignatureBehavior`
and adjusted the execution order. Enhanced query logic in
`EnvelopeReceiverResolutionBehavior` and `SaveSignatureBehavior`
to align with the updated data model.
Refactored `EGDbContext` to improve trigger handling and logging.
Updated `ReceiverSignedPage.razor` to integrate `SignatureService`
and handle submission errors gracefully. Adjusted application
URLs in `launchSettings.json` and added new database triggers
in `appsettings.json`.
Replaced separate `DxGrid` components for "active" and "completed" tabs with a single unified grid. Introduced dynamic properties (`CurrentGridData` and `CurrentGridKey`) to handle data and layout switching based on the active tab.
Refactored layout loading/saving methods into shared versions (`OnGridLayoutAutoLoading` and `OnGridLayoutAutoSaving`) using dynamic keys. Simplified export logic to use the unified grid instance.
Removed redundant code, templates, and private fields specific to the "completed" tab. Updated status filter logic to dynamically fetch data. Improved maintainability by consolidating logic and reducing duplication.
Added `Include` statements to the LINQ query in the
`ReadEnvelopeQueryHandler` class to eagerly load related
entities (`Type`, `EnvelopeReceivers` with `Receiver`, and
`Histories`). This change reduces lazy-loading overhead and
ensures all necessary data is retrieved in a single query,
improving performance.
Introduce `GetSignedReceiverCount` and `IsReceiverSigned` helper methods to centralize and improve the logic for determining the signed status of receivers. Replace inline logic with these methods for better encapsulation and reusability.
Update UI rendering logic to dynamically determine receiver badge states based on the new methods. These changes enhance code maintainability, reduce duplication, and ensure consistent behavior across the application.
Updated `DxGrid` components for `_activeEnvelopes` and `_completedEnvelopes`:
- Disabled `ShowFilterRow` and added `FilterMenuButtonDisplayMode` to always display filter menu buttons.
- Enabled sorting for the `Id` column with descending order and added a display format.
- Added `EditSettings` to the `Status` column with a `DxComboBoxSettings` for filtering, using the new `GetStatusFilterItems` method.
Introduced `GetStatusFilterItems` to generate distinct status filter items and added a private `StatusFilterItem` record type for encapsulating status values and labels.
Made minor adjustments to grid layout auto-saving logic for consistency.
This commit introduces comprehensive localization support for the application, enabling dynamic language switching and localized UI elements. Key changes include:
- Added `.resx` files for German (de-DE), English (en-US), and French (fr-FR).
- Updated Razor components to use `IStringLocalizer` for dynamic string localization.
- Introduced the `L(string key, string fallback)` helper method for consistent localized string retrieval with fallback support.

- Localized error pages, grid columns, tabs, popups, validation messages, and tooltips.
- Dynamically generated privacy policy links based on the current culture.
- Improved user experience with fully localized loading states, error handling, and UI labels.
These changes enhance accessibility and usability, making the application more user-friendly for a global audience.
Added `Model.fr-FR.resx` to support French localization.
Defined XML schema for the resource file structure, including
metadata, assembly, and data elements. Added localized
French strings for various application messages, ensuring
proper display when the locale is set to `fr-FR`.
Introduced a `LanguageControls` component for switching between
languages (`de-DE`, `en-US`, `fr-FR`) and integrated a new
`LocalizationService` to manage language preferences. Updated
`LocalizationController` to handle language persistence via
cookies and support multiple cultures. Enhanced the footer
layout to include the language selector alongside theme
controls.
Added `flag-icons` library for displaying country flags and
configured request localization in `Program.cs`. Styled the
language selector dropdown and improved sender page visuals
with updated CSS. Defaulted language handling to `de-DE` for
fallback scenarios. Cleaned up redundant code in
`LocalizationController`.
Added a new `Model` class in the `EnvelopeGenerator.Domain.Resources` namespace as a marker for `IStringLocalizer` resource lookup. Updated `EnvelopeSenderPage.razor` to use the new `Model` class for localization.
Modified `LocalizationController` to default to "de-DE" when no culture is specified or found. Refactored localization setup in `Program.cs` to use a fixed default culture of "de-DE" and persist culture via cookies. Removed dynamic culture setup and `QueryStringRequestCultureProvider`.
Performed minor cleanup in `LocalizationController` and `Program.cs` to align with the new localization approach.
Introduced a "Historie" section in `EnvelopeSenderPage.razor` to display envelope history with status badges, actor info, and timestamps. Updated `ReadEnvelopeQueryHandler` to include histories in queries.
Refactored `GetStatusInfo` to use localized labels and expanded supported statuses. Added helper methods for history processing and display.
Enhanced UI with new styles for the history section in `sender-page.css` and improved responsive design. Added dependency injections for localization and history handling.
Refactored sender email resolution into a new private async
method `ResolveSenderReferenceAsync` to improve code
reusability and readability. Replaced inline logic for
resolving sender references with this method.
Added a `CreateHistoryCommand` to log envelope creation
events, including envelope ID, sender reference, and status
(`EnvelopeCreated`). This enhances auditability and ensures
consistent event logging.
Removed `IDocReceiverElementWriter` interface and its implementation, replacing it with repository-based operations (`IRepository<DocReceiverElement>`). Updated `CreateEnvelopeCommandHandler` to use repository methods for deleting and creating `DocReceiverElement` records.
Cleaned up dependency injection by removing `IDocReceiverElementWriter` registration. Added new database triggers for `DocReceiverElement` in `appsettings.json` and `appsettings.Database.json`.
Introduced `SENDER_SAVE_EDIT_MIGRATION_PLAN.md` to outline the migration of the sender save/edit workflow to Blazor Server. This includes splitting save and send actions, supporting draft persistence, and enabling draft editing from the dashboard.
Removed unused namespaces and performed code cleanup. Updated testing strategies to ensure correctness and prevent regressions.
- expose POST /api/Envelope for sender-authenticated create/update/send operations
- replace client draft-specific call with EnvelopeService.UpsertAsync(CreateEnvelopeCommand)
- update sender editor save/send flow to persist draft first and send by envelope id
- allow editor hydration without document by making sender document fetch nullable
- extend CreateEnvelopeCommand to support draft updates and send intent
- merge draft save logic into CreateEnvelopeCommandHandler and remove duplicate handler
- add DocReceiverElement writer abstraction and infrastructure registration for SQL-based field upserts
The `EnvelopeGenerator.Server` project now serves as the unified runtime host for both the Blazor frontend and Web API backend, deprecating the `EnvelopeGenerator.API` project. All API endpoints have been merged into `EnvelopeGenerator.Server`.
Key changes:
- Updated `EnvelopeGenerator.Server` to include API controllers.
- Deprecated `EnvelopeGenerator.API` and removed it from the active solution.
- Simplified development workflow to run only `EnvelopeGenerator.Server`.
- Updated `appsettings.json` to consolidate configuration settings.
- Adjusted documentation to reflect the new unified architecture.
- Updated manual testing steps and environment variable references.
- Migrated legacy VB.NET app references to the new architecture.
These changes simplify development, deployment, and testing workflows while consolidating the solution architecture.
Updated SF-74-PLAN.md to document completed phases (6a–6e), including theme selection, dark mode, grid persistence, and logo placement. Highlighted pending tasks for phase 6f and clarified open questions.
Revised MIGRATION_PLAN.md with deep analysis findings and detailed steps for migrating `EnvelopeGenerator.Service_legacy` to a modern C# Worker Service. Addressed connection string handling, Quartz version mismatch, and TempFiles architecture.
Removed outdated markdown files from EnvelopeGenerator.sln and updated the solution structure for consistency.
Fixed incorrect "Read and confirmed" label in Signature Certificate reports for "Read and Sign" envelopes. Added branching logic in `ReportItem.vb` and updated resource files.
Resolved signature field formatting issues in finalized PDFs based on WISAG feedback. Added truncation logic in `PDFBurner.vb` and updated `PDFBurnerParams.vb` with per-field character limits.
Refactored the sender title in `EnvelopeSenderPage.razor` to use a structured layout with accessibility improvements. Introduced `.sender-title-main` and `.sender-title-sub` classes for better styling and responsiveness. Updated `.sender-page.css` to enhance layout flexibility, reduce gaps, and improve scaling for logos and titles.
Added media queries for better responsiveness on smaller screens, including adjustments to `.sender-title-section` and logo dimensions. Introduced theme-specific overrides for "purple" and "blazing-dark" themes to ensure consistent styling.
Minor adjustments were made to padding, margins, and font sizes to improve overall layout and visual hierarchy.
The "Grid persistence hint" feature was removed from `EnvelopeSenderPage.razor`, including its associated HTML `<div>` and SVG icon.
Corresponding styles for `.sf-grid-persistence-hint` were removed from `sender-page.css`, including display, alignment, padding, font size, color, background, and border.
Adjusted the padding for `.sender-grid-wrapper` in `sender-page.css` to account for the removal of the hint banner, setting it to `1rem 2rem 2rem`.

`EnvelopeSenderPage.razor` in the Blazor WASM Client. The feature
supports exporting grid data in XLSX, CSV, and PDF formats, with
an option to export only selected rows.
- Updated `SF-74-PLAN.6e.md` to reflect the completed Phase 6e.
- Integrated a compact UI for export controls in the toolbar:
- Dropdown for format selection (XLSX, CSV, PDF).
- Checkbox for "Only selected rows" option.
- Single `Exportieren` button to trigger the export.
- Implemented `ExportSelectedFormatAsync` to handle export logic:
- Supported formats: XLSX, CSV, PDF.
- Added options for `ExportSelectedRowsOnly` and grouping.
- Replaced placeholder `ExportToExcelAsync` with finalized logic.
- Documented known limitations (e.g., template columns not exported).
- Updated project status table to mark Phase 6e as complete.
This commit ensures a streamlined and user-friendly export UX,
consistent with the existing design, while addressing known
DevExpress limitations.
Replaced placeholder export method with a fully implemented
`ExportSelectedFormatAsync` method to support exporting grid
data in CSV, PDF, or XLSX formats. Added a loading spinner
to the export button to indicate progress during export
operations. Updated the `IsExportDisabled` method to account
for the new `_isExporting` state.
Disabled exporting for "Status" and "EnvelopeReceivers"
columns by setting their `ExportEnabled` property to `false`.
Made minor grid layout adjustments, including adding the
`KeyFieldName` property for proper grid behavior.
Introduced a new export feature to the EnvelopeSenderPage, including a dropdown for selecting export formats (XLSX, CSV, PDF) and a checkbox to export only selected rows. Added a placeholder export button ("Exportieren") that is currently disabled, with export logic to be implemented in a future phase.
Added private fields `_selectedExportFormat` and `_exportSelectedRowsOnly` to manage the export state. Implemented `IsExportDisabled()` to control button availability and a placeholder method `ExportSelectedFormatPlaceholderAsync()`.
Updated `sender-page.css` to style the export feature, including the export button, dropdown, and checkbox. Added theme-specific styles for "purple" and "blazing-dark" themes. Adjusted toolbar element order to position the export group before the logout button.
Implemented the first phase of a planned multi-format export feature for the `/sender` dashboard. Added a compact export block to the right action bar in `EnvelopeSenderPage.razor`, including a format dropdown (XLSX, CSV, PDF), a "Selected Rows Only" toggle, and an "Export" button.
The UI is fully integrated with responsive design and theme consistency across `blazing-berry`, `blazing-dark`, and `purple`. No export logic is implemented yet; placeholder handlers are in place for the export button. Styles were added to `wwwroot/css/sender-page.css` to ensure alignment with the existing design language and mobile usability.
This commit completes Phase 1 of the implementation plan. Phase 2 will add the actual export functionality.
Updated the "Letzte Aktualisierung" date in SF-74-PLAN.md to
reflect the latest progress. Added requirement 6d for a PDF
Preview Popup using `DxPdfViewer` and marked it as completed.
Provided additional context for Phase 6d, explaining the
read-only behavior of envelopes after sending and the technical
approach for implementing the PDF preview functionality.
Replace inline styles and magic-number height calculations with a proper
BEM CSS class system. Attach HeaderCssClass and BodyCssClass to DxPopup
so DevExpress DOM targets can be styled reliably without deep selector
hacks.
Layout changes:
- Remove hardcoded calc(90vh - 114px) height from viewer wrapper; use
flex layout so the body fills available space naturally
- Change overflow on DxPdfViewer wrapper from hidden to auto to allow
horizontal scrolling at high zoom levels
- Center PDF pages horizontally inside dxbrv-document-surface via flex
New CSS classes (BEM):
- .sender-preview-popup root shell, accent top border
- .sender-preview-popup__header styled header via HeaderCssClass
- .sender-preview-popup__body flex column body via BodyCssClass
- .sender-preview-viewer-wrap padding wrapper for the PDF viewer
- .sender-preview-pdf-viewer viewer shell with rounded corners / shadow
- .sender-preview-state-wrap centered container for loading/error states
- .sender-preview-error-card error message card with left accent border
- .sender-preview-error-icon circular icon wrapper
- .sender-preview-error-title/msg typography helpers
Theme support:
- Purple, Blazing Dark variants via data-sf-theme attribute overrides
Custom scrollbars:
- WebKit scrollbar styling scoped to .sender-preview-popup__body
Inline style cleanup in EnvelopeSenderPage.razor:
- Replace all ad-hoc style= attributes with the new CSS classes above
Decouple Scalar from Swagger so each can be enabled/disabled separately
via the UseScalar config flag. When Scalar is enabled without Swagger,
the bare OpenAPI JSON endpoint is still registered so Scalar has a
spec to load from.
- Add UseScalar flag to appsettings.json (default: true)
- Resolve useScalar from config in Program.cs
- Map Scalar only when useScalar is true
- Ensure UseSwagger() is called if Scalar needs it but Swagger UI is off
Replace the placeholder preview popup with a fully functional DxPdfViewer
popup:
- Popup resized to 80vw × 90vh with drag, resize and background shading.
- OpenPreviewAsync: unmounts viewer, fetches PDF bytes via
GetDocumentOfSenderAsync, then mounts DxPdfViewer only after bytes are
ready (prevents DevExpress ProcessDocumentChangedAsync NRE).
- Loading spinner shown while fetching; typed error panel shown on
NotFoundException or general failure.
- OnPreviewClosed: unmounts viewer before nulling byte array so DevExpress
async render never touches a disposed reference.
- Inject ReceiverPageDataService, EnvelopeAuthService and ILogger.
app.css: Disable text/image selection globally; re-enable for
input/textarea/[contenteditable] so typing and pasting still work.
sender-page.css: Add .sender-preview-popup, .sender-preview-viewer-wrap
and .sender-preview-pdf-viewer rules. DxPdfViewer requires an explicit
pixel-height parent — percentage heights resolve to 0 inside popup body
flex containers and cause DevExpress NullReferenceExceptions.
Loads the PDF bytes for a given envelope on behalf of the authenticated
sender (uses SenderId() claim extension). Throws NotFoundException when
no document data is available so callers can surface a typed error.
Previously Swagger UI was only registered in Development. Add a
'UseSwagger' config key so staging/production environments can opt in
without code changes.
JwtBearer middleware does not run for WebSocket upgrade requests, so
HttpContext.User is anonymous inside Blazor Server components. Fall back
to manual cookie parsing + token validation (same pattern used by
EnvelopeReceiverAuthorizationService). Cache the resulting principal on
HttpContext.User for subsequent calls within the same circuit.
Also inject IOptionsMonitor<JwtBearerOptions> and IOptions<AuthTokenKeys>
to support the validation path.
Extracts the authenticated sender's integer ID from the 'sub' /
NameIdentifier claim. Mirrors the existing ReceiverId() helper and is
required by GetDocumentOfSenderAsync.
Adds an optional UserId parameter to ReadDocumentQuery so callers
can scope document lookups to envelopes owned by a specific sender.
Also adds AsNoTracking() to the base query for read-only scenarios.
Updated the method name in EnvelopeReceiverPageDataService
to clarify its purpose of retrieving documents for a receiver.
Refactored all references in Razor pages (ReceiverPage.razor,
ReceiverSignedPage.razor, EnvelopeReceiverPage.razor) to use
the new method name. No changes were made to the method's
logic or functionality. This improves code clarity and consistency.
Updated documentation to reflect the migration from WebUI to EnvelopeGenerator.Server, including a new "Documentation Catalog" in `AGENTS.md`. Adjusted route mappings, render modes, and directory structure for Blazor components.
Revised coordinate system documentation and CSS for status colors to align with the new architecture. Updated YARP proxy and PDF.js configuration paths.
Migrated `MIGRATION_PLAN.md` to modernize `EnvelopeGenerator.Service` with C# Worker Service equivalents. Updated `FORM_APPLICATION_CONTEXT.md` and `RECEIVER_PDF_VIEWER_CONTEXT.md` to reflect the new architecture and planned viewer integration.
Fixed German translation issues in `fix-report-label-read-and-confirmed.md`. Standardized formatting and terminology across all files.
Updated the `@rendermode` directive in `EnvelopeSenderPage.razor`
to replace `InteractiveWebAssemblyRenderMode` (with `prerender: false`)
with `InteractiveServer`. This change transitions the rendering
approach from WebAssembly-based interactive mode to server-side
interactive mode.
Refactored row selection logic to leverage DevExpress's native
`@bind-SelectedDataItem` for automatic updates to the
`_selectedEnvelope` variable. Added `AllowSelectRowByClick`
to enable row selection via single click. Updated event
handlers for layout auto-loading and auto-saving to use
specific methods for different grids. Simplified `OnRowClick`
method by removing redundant manual selection logic and
retaining toggle behavior for deselecting the same row.
Updated comments to reflect these changes.
Enhanced the UI with a "Vorschau" (Preview) button to display
PDF previews of selected envelopes. Introduced a `DxPopup`
to show envelope details, including ID and title, with a
"Schließen" (Close) button.
Replaced `SelectedDataItemChanged` with `RowClick` and
`RowDoubleClick` events for improved row selection.
Single-click toggles row selection, while double-click opens
the preview popup. Added `_previewVisible` to manage popup
visibility and implemented `ShowPreview` for button-triggered
previews. Removed `OnSelectedEnvelopeChanged` as it is now
handled by the new row events. Updated grid layout persistence
to align with the new event structure.
Reflect completion of phases 6a–6c in the project plan:
- Marked phases 6a (signFLOW logo), 6b (customer logo placeholder),
and 6c (grid columns + persistence hint) as completed.
- Updated dependency rule to reflect the change from
`EnvelopeGenerator.Server.Client` to `Blazor WASM Client`.
- Reiterated key decisions, including the use of `TBDD_CACHE`,
`SenderOrReceiver` policy, and `signflow.theme` in localStorage.
- Noted DevExpress 25.2.3 lacks `.dark.`-suffix files.
A new file, `SF-74-PLAN.md`, was added to the `EnvelopeGenerator.Server` project under the `SolutionItems` section in the solution file (`EnvelopeGenerator.sln`). This change ensures the file is tracked as part of the solution.
Added dynamic version resolution from the `<Version>` tag in the
`.csproj` file, enabling versioned output directories. Updated
`setlocal` to use `enabledelayedexpansion` for better variable
handling. Enhanced logging of build parameters and streamlined
the "Publishing" step by removing redundant logs.
Improved output verification with additional checks for critical
files (`hostfxr.dll`, `coreclr.dll`, etc.), logging failures if
files are missing. Updated success messages to include the
resolved version and generalized next-step instructions.
Updated versioning details in `EnvelopeGenerator.Server.csproj`:
- Changed `<Version>` from `1.0.1-beta` to `1.1.0-beta`.
- Updated `<FileVersion>` from `1.0.1.0` to `1.1.0.0`.
- Updated `<AssemblyVersion>` from `1.0.1.0` to `1.1.0.0`.
This minor version update reflects new features or improvements
while maintaining backward compatibility.
Refactored code for improved readability, consistency, and maintainability. Removed the WASM boot loading overlay and its associated styles/scripts. Updated SVG paths to use self-closing tags for HTML compliance. Reformatted conditional blocks, state management, and session data logic. Enhanced error handling, spinner visibility, and empty state displays.
Removed redundant comments and unused code. Added `envelope-editor.js` for new functionality. Cleaned up CSS and JavaScript related to the removed WASM overlay. Improved grid layout persistence and signature field logic. Adjusted localization strings for better alignment with German translations.
- Updated `MappingProfile.cs` to add detailed mapping for `Envelope` to `EnvelopeDto`, including `EnvelopeTypeTitle`.
- Added a grid persistence hint banner in `EnvelopeSenderPage.razor` with an SVG icon and German message.
- Introduced three new columns (`EnvelopeTypeTitle`, `AddedWhen`, `ChangedWhen`) to the grid in `EnvelopeSenderPage.razor`.
- Refactored boot overlay removal logic in `App.razor` into a reusable function `sfRemoveBootOverlay`.
- Simplified event handling for overlay removal and fallback logic in `App.razor`.
- Adjusted `.sender-grid-wrapper` padding in `sender-page.css` and added styles for the new grid persistence hint banner.
The `ConnectionStrings.Default` value in `appsettings.json` was updated.
The connection string now points to the testing environment
(`SDD-VHP04-SQL19\DD_TESTING01`) instead of the development environment
(`SDD-VMP04-SQL17\DD_DEVELOP01`). The password was also updated to
`123456789dD!` to reflect the new environment credentials.
Introduced a customer logo section in `EnvelopeSenderPage.razor` that dynamically displays a customer logo or a placeholder when no logo is configured. The logo is fetched from the `CustomImagesService` and styled using new CSS classes in `sender-page.css`.
- Added `_companyLogo` property to store customer logo configuration.
- Updated `CustomImagesService` to fetch both app and customer logos.
- Modified `appsettings.json` to include logo paths and styles.
- Enhanced CSS for a three-section action bar layout.
- Added placeholder styling for missing customer logos.
- Updated initialization logic to load logos dynamically.
- Documented implementation details in `SF-74-PLAN.md`.
The implementation is modular and deployment-specific, allowing logo paths and styles to be updated via configuration without code changes.
Introduced `ThemeService` to manage themes and dark mode, with a new footer UI for theme selection and toggling dark mode. Added dynamic CSS loading and Bootstrap theme support. Registered `UserPreferencesService` and `ThemeService` for SSR compatibility. Removed hardcoded DevExpress theme links.
Fixed German localization issues in `LoginReceiverPage` and `LoginSenderPage`. Updated `app.css` with styles for the new footer controls. Simplified font loading in `MainLayout.razor`.
Introduce ThemeService to manage themes and dark mode state,
including initialization, persistence, and server sync.
Add UserPreferencesService to handle API communication for
retrieving and saving user preferences with in-memory caching
to reduce network overhead.
Register both services in the DI container in Program.cs.
Enhance ThemeService with detailed documentation and introduce
ThemeOption record for selectable themes. Improve server-side
caching in UserPreferencesService for consistency and efficiency.
Introduced `UserPreferencesDto` to represent UI preferences,
including theme, dark mode, and grid layouts. Added the
`IUserPreferencesService` interface and implemented it in
`UserPreferencesService` to manage preferences stored in
the distributed cache (`dbo.TBDD_CACHE`).
Registered `UserPreferencesService` in dependency injection
and added a NuGet reference for `Microsoft.Extensions.Caching.Abstractions`.
Created `UserPreferencesController` with `GET` and `PUT`
endpoints to retrieve and save user preferences. Validated
theme names in the `PUT` endpoint.
Updated `Program.cs` to ensure proper service registration.
Updated `createAnnotations` to initialize a `PSPDFKit.Annotations.WidgetAnnotation` object, enabling the creation of widget annotations.
Modified `ctx.strokeStyle` in `createAnnotationFrameBlob` to use 'darkblue' instead of 'darkgray', improving the visual appearance of the annotation frame.
Updated `EnvelopeGenerator.Service.csproj` to target a single framework (`net4.6.2`) by replacing `<TargetFrameworks>` with `<TargetFramework>`.
Added `DefaultProfile.pubxml` to define a publish profile with settings for release configuration, platform, and file system-based publishing.
Migrated the legacy VB.NET Windows Service to a modern C# Worker Service targeting .NET Framework 4.6.2. Key changes include:
- Added `Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting.WindowsServices`, `NLog`, and `Quartz` for logging and scheduling.
- Introduced `LogConfigFactory` to bridge `ServiceConfig` and `LogConfig` for Quartz jobs.
- Rewrote `Worker` to handle the full service lifecycle, including database connection, temp file management, and scheduler initialization.
- Implemented `SchedulerFinishEnvelope` and `SchedulerEnvelopeTaskApi` for Quartz job scheduling.
- Created `TempFiles` for service-level temp file management.

- Updated `appsettings.json` for connection strings and service-specific configuration.
- Replaced legacy `ProjectInstaller` with `AddWindowsService()` for SCM integration.
Introduced a new project `EnvelopeGenerator.Service` to the solution as a .NET Worker Service targeting the `net4.6.2` framework.
- Configured the project with nullable reference types, implicit usings, and `LangVersion` set to `latest`.
- Added a `Worker` class that logs periodic messages while running.
- Updated `Program.cs` to configure and run the Worker Service.
- Added `launchSettings.json` for development environment configuration.
- Added `appsettings.json` and `appsettings.Development.json` for logging configuration.
- Included the project in `EnvelopeGenerator.sln` with appropriate build configurations and hierarchy updates.
The project `EnvelopeGenerator.Service` has been removed from the solution and replaced with a new project, `EnvelopeGenerator.Service_legacy`.
Updated build configuration mappings to reflect the addition of `Service_legacy` and the removal of `Service`. Adjusted project nesting to place `Service_legacy` under the same parent as the removed `Service`.
Updated the `handleReset` method in `app.js` to await the
`Swal.fire` call, ensuring proper asynchronous handling.
Added logic to reset editable text form fields and restore
widget backgrounds after signing.
Refactored `app.min.js` to align with changes in `app.js`,
ensuring consistency between the minified and non-minified
versions. Improved code readability and maintainability
across both files.
Increased the maximum width values for the "position" and "city" keys in the `TextMaxWidths` property of `Jobs.FinalizeDocument` (PDFBurnerParams.vb) from `1.25F` to `1.41F`. This change allows more text to fit before truncation occurs, improving text rendering flexibility.
Updated `appsettings.UI.json` to adjust annotation properties for better alignment and positioning. Refactored `createAnnotations` and `createAnnotationFrameBlob` in `annotation.js` to improve readability, reusability, and asynchronous handling.
Enhanced the `App` class in `app.js` by introducing `signatureWidgets` for stable frame placement and added logic to find and update the nearest signature widget. Improved bounding box calculations and removed widget backgrounds after signing.
Refactored `handleAnnotationsCreate` to align with new logic and updated `app.min.js` to reflect these changes. General improvements include better code maintainability, reduced redundancy, and enhanced user experience.
Replaced character-based truncation with pixel-accurate truncation based on rendered width in inches. Updated `TruncateText` in `PDFBurner.vb` to use `Graphics.MeasureString` for width calculation and introduced a binary search for efficient truncation. Renamed `egName` to `fieldEgName` for clarity.
Replaced `TextMaxLengths` with `TextMaxWidths` in `PDFBurnerParams.vb`, specifying maximum render widths in inches. Updated default values for `position`, `city`, and `date`. Revised XML documentation to reflect the new truncation logic.
Address customer feedback on signature field layout issues:
- Added truncation logic in `PDFBurner.vb` to limit text length
based on per-field maximums, appending a suffix (e.g., `..`).
- Enhanced `PDFBurnerParams.vb` with `TextMaxLengths` and
`TruncationSuffix` for configurable truncation behavior.
- Improved spacing and layout handling for signature fields to
prevent text collisions within fixed dimensions.
- Updated `EnvelopeGenerator.sln` with documentation for the
signature formatting fix (`fix-signature-field-formatting.md`).
- Applied truncation consistently across `AddFormFieldValue`
overloads and ensured deterministic rendering of annotations.
Updated the Signature Certificate report to display the correct
label "Read and confirmed" for "Read and Sign" envelopes.
- Added `DocumentSignedRaC` resource key to `Model.resx` and
`Model.en.resx` with localized values ("Gelesen und bestätigt"
and "Read and confirmed").
- Updated `ReportItem.vb` to include conditional logic in
`ItemStatusTranslated` for "Read and Sign" envelopes.
- Added strongly-typed property for `DocumentSignedRaC` in
`Model.Designer.cs`.
- Updated `fix-report-label-read-and-confirmed.md` documentation
to reflect changes, including testing steps and task completion.
These changes ensure accurate status labels in the report for
different envelope types.
Addressed an issue where the Signature Certificate report incorrectly displayed "Document signed" for "Read and Sign" envelopes. Added a new resource key, `DocumentSignedRaC`, with translations ("Read and confirmed" / "Gelesen und bestätigt") to resolve this.
Updated `ItemStatusTranslated` in `ReportItem.vb` to use the new key for "Read and Sign" envelopes (`EnvelopeTypeId == 2`) while retaining existing behavior for other envelope types. Leveraged `Envelope.IsReadAndConfirm()` to determine envelope type.
Pending tasks include adding the new resource key to resource files and updating `Model.Designer.cs` with a strongly-typed property. Testing instructions provided to verify correct label behavior.

Introduced input fields for "Title" and "Message" in the
EnvelopeSenderEditorPage, allowing users to specify metadata
for envelopes. The "Title" field is required and validated,
while the "Message" field is optional with a default value.
Updated the save logic to validate the title and display
appropriate error messages. Persisted the "Title" and
"Message" fields in the session cache via the
`EditorSessionData` record.
Modified the `CreateEnvelopeReceiverCommand` to use the
user-provided "Title" and "Message" values. Adjusted the UI
layout and styling to accommodate the new fields, ensuring
a seamless user experience.
Updated navigation logic and routes to remove the `/report` suffix, simplifying the URL structure for envelope-related pages.
- Updated `LoginReceiverPage.razor` and `ReceiverSignedPage.razor` to redirect to `/envelope/{EnvelopeKey}`.
- Changed `ReceiverPage.razor` route to `/envelope/{EnvelopeKey}`.
- Updated `ILogger` dependencies in `ReceiverPage.razor` and `ReceiverSignedPage.razor` to reflect new class names.
- Modified `EnvelopeReceiverPage.razor` route to `/envelope/{EnvelopeKey}/deprc`, indicating deprecation or restructuring.
Added a custom DelegatingHandler, SenderAuthCookieHandler, to forward the browser's Cookie header to outgoing HttpClient requests in Blazor Server. Registered the handler as a transient service and integrated it into the named HttpClient pipeline for internal API calls. This enables Blazor Server components to make authenticated API calls using cookie-based JWT authentication (AuthScheme.Sender).
Introduced the ability to create envelopes with documents and receivers via a new `CreateAsync` method in `EnvelopeReceiverService`. Integrated this functionality into `EnvelopeSenderEditorPage.razor` with UI updates, including a save button spinner, validation checks, and a result popup for success or error feedback.
- Added `CreateAsync` method to handle `POST /api/EnvelopeReceiver` API calls.
- Injected `EnvelopeReceiverService` into `EnvelopeSenderEditorPage.razor`.
- Implemented save logic with validation for PDF upload, receivers, and signature fields.
- Added success and error popups for user feedback.
- Improved logging for envelope creation and validation warnings.
- Refactored save logic for better readability and maintainability.
Added warning logs in `EnvelopeReceiverController` to handle
cases where stored procedures return `OUT_SUCCESS=false`.
For `PRSIG_API_ADD_DOC_RECEIVER_ELEM`, log `DOC_ID`,
`RECEIVER_ID`, and `Page`. For `PRSIG_API_ADD_HISTORY_STATE`,
log `EnvelopeUuid`. These changes enhance error visibility
and debugging.
Updated the SQL query in `EnvelopeReceiverAddReadSQL.cs` to change the data type of the `@OUT_RECEIVER_ID` variable from `int` to `bigint`. This modification ensures support for larger identifier values, addressing potential limitations of the previous `int` type.
Updated `Authorize` attributes in multiple controllers to use
`AuthenticationSchemes = AuthScheme.Sender` instead of
`Policy = AuthPolicy.Sender`, reflecting a shift in the
authentication mechanism.
Added detailed logging in `EnvelopeReceiverController` to handle
cases where stored procedures return `OUT_SUCCESS=false`,
providing contextual information for debugging.
Removed unused SQL code and declarations in
`EnvelopeReceiverController` to improve code readability and
maintainability.
Introduced a `Color` property to `ReceiverDraft` and `SignatureFieldDraft` models, enabling dynamic color assignment from a predefined palette (`ReceiverPalette`). Updated the UI to reflect receiver-specific colors in the sender-receiver chips, placement mode hint bar, and signature placement button.
Refactored PDF rendering logic to dynamically derive visual styles (fill, border, and text colors) from receiver colors. Added a `HexToXColor` utility for converting hex color strings to `PdfSharp.Drawing.XColor`.
Removed hardcoded visual styles and replaced them with dynamic, receiver-specific styling. Simplified receiver addition logic to automatically assign colors from the palette. These changes improve clarity and maintainability while enhancing the user experience.
The session ID generation and redirection logic was moved from
OnInitialized to OnAfterRenderAsync to address issues with
NavigationException during SSR prerendering. OnInitialized is
now intentionally left empty, and the new OnAfterRenderAsync
method ensures the session ID is appended to the URL only after
the first interactive render, when SignalR is connected and
NavigateTo is safe.
- Added `IMemoryCache` for session persistence and caching.
- Introduced session persistence via query parameter (`esid`).
- Replaced overlay-based click handling with normalized PDF coordinates.
- Added `PdfSharp` integration to render signature placeholders.

- Updated `.home-btn-primary` styles in `app.css`:
- Ensured text color is always white with `!important`.
- Made text bolder by increasing `font-weight` to `700`.
Added the `NavigationManager` service injection to the
`EnvelopeSenderEditorPage.razor` file to enable navigation.
Introduced a "Cancel" button in the toolbar, styled with
`pdf-toolbar__btn pdf-toolbar__btn--reset`, which triggers
the `Cancel` method on click. The `Cancel` method navigates
the user to the `/sender` route, improving the user experience
by providing a clear way to cancel the current operation.
Refactored the handling of email suggestions to separate selection
and commitment logic. Updated `<DxListBox>`'s `ValueChanged`
handler to use `OnReceiverEmailSuggestionCommittedAsync` for
finalizing selections. Introduced `SelectReceiverEmailSuggestion`
as a synchronous helper method for managing selection updates.
Centralized clearing of suggestions in the new
`OnReceiverEmailSuggestionCommittedAsync` method. Simplified
keyboard navigation logic by replacing asynchronous calls with
synchronous selection handling. These changes improve code
clarity and reduce unnecessary asynchronous operations.
Added functionality to display a receiver's phone number in the
sender-receiver chip if provided. Introduced a new input field
in the receiver popup for entering an optional phone number.
Updated the `ReceiverDraft` model and `_receivers` list to
include and store phone numbers. Modified methods to handle
phone number input and saving. Added CSS styles for displaying
the phone number in the sender-receiver chip.
Enhanced the email suggestion feature by adding keyboard navigation support (`ArrowUp`, `ArrowDown`, `Enter`, `Escape`) and introducing `_selectedReceiverEmailSuggestion` to track the current selection. Updated methods to synchronize input and suggestions, pre-select matching suggestions, and reset the state when the popup is opened or closed. Improved error handling and ensured clean state management for better user experience.
Replaced DevExpress DxButton components with standard HTML
<button> elements in EnvelopeSenderEditorPage.razor for
"Add Receiver" and "Add Signature" actions. The new buttons
include SVG icons and text for improved customization and
styling.
Updated envelope-viewer.css to add new styles for the
buttons, including `.sender-toolbar-action-btn` and
`.sender-toolbar-action-btn--compact` classes. Removed
unused styles related to DxButton components and adjusted
`.sender-receiver-chip__action` for proper width handling.
These changes improve design flexibility and maintainability.
Introduced a new "Receivers" panel in `EnvelopeSenderEditorPage` to manage receivers. Added a popup for adding receivers with validation, email suggestions, and caching for performance. Updated the layout to display receiver details and signature fields.
Injected `EnvelopeReceiverPageDataService` for receiver-related operations. Added a `ReceiverDraft` model and implemented methods for managing receivers. Enhanced CSS for the new UI elements and ensured responsiveness. Minor refactoring and cleanup included.
Replaced the placeholder console log in the `CreateEnvelope` method with actual navigation functionality. The method now uses `Navigation.NavigateTo` to redirect users to the `/sender/editor` page, enabling the intended behavior for creating envelopes.
The namespace of the `ReceiverController` class was updated from `EnvelopeGenerator.GeneratorAPI.Controllers` to `EnvelopeGenerator.Server.Controllers`.
The `Get` method was enhanced with the following changes:
- Added `[Authorize]` attribute with `AuthScheme.Sender`.
- Updated the method signature to include an optional `ReadReceiverQuery? receiver` parameter (defaulting to `null`) and a new `bool onlyEmailAddress` parameter (defaulting to `false`).
- Modified logic to handle `receiver` being `null` by creating a new `ReadReceiverQuery`.
- Added handling for `onlyEmailAddress` to return a list of email addresses if true.
- Simplified the result handling and removed the previous `receiver.HasAnyCriteria` logic.
- Added `[NotMapped]` attribute to `HasAnyCriteria` in `ReceiverQueryBase` to exclude it from database mapping.
- Made `HasAnyCriteria` in `ReceiverQueryBase` virtual for overriding.
- Introduced `EmailAddressSearch` in `ReadReceiverQuery` for partial email matching.
- Overrode `HasAnyCriteria` in `ReadReceiverQuery` to include `EmailAddressSearch`.
- Updated `ReadReceiverQueryHandler` to support partial email matching using `EF.Functions.Like`.
Refactor `EnvelopeSenderEditorPage.razor` to enhance the structure and behavior of the PDF editor wrapper:
- Add `class="pdf-editor-wrapper"` and update `overflow` to `auto`.
- Update `DxPdfViewer`'s `CssClass` to `sender-editor-pdf-viewer`.
- Introduce `OnAfterRenderAsync` to synchronize the overlay with the viewer.
Add new styles in `envelope-viewer.css` for better layout:
- Ensure `.pdf-editor-wrapper` and `.sender-editor-pdf-viewer` occupy full dimensions.
- Center and align content within the PDF viewer.
Enhance `envelope-editor.js` with `syncOverlayToPage`:
- Dynamically adjust overlay position and size relative to the viewer.
- Use `MutationObserver` and event listeners for real-time synchronization.
- Handle delayed rendering with scheduled sync attempts.
These changes improve overlay alignment, user experience, and code maintainability.
Added the `@rendermode InteractiveWebAssembly` directive to
`IndexPage.razor` to enable interactive WebAssembly rendering.
Included a `<link>` element to reference the `blazing-berry.bs5.min.css`
stylesheet from the `DevExpress.Blazor.Themes` content folder to
apply the "blazing-berry" theme for enhanced styling.
The user-facing text in `EnvelopeReceiverReportSignedPage.razor` has been updated to provide a more detailed and formal confirmation message for signing a document.
- Replaced "Dokument erfolgreich unterschrieben" with "Möchten Sie das Dokument verbindlich unterschreiben?".
- Updated the follow-up message to clarify the irreversibility of the action and the electronic signing process.
Additionally, the logout navigation behavior has been modified:
- Changed the post-logout redirect from `/envelope/login/{EnvelopeKey}` to the root page (`/`), while retaining the `forceLoad` parameter.
Added dependency injection for `AuthService`, `ReceiverAuthorizationService`, `PageDataService`, and `Logger` to enable their usage in the component. Introduced a "Submit" button in the UI to confirm the signing process and complete the workflow.
Implemented a `DxPopup` component to display a confirmation dialog when the "Submit" button is clicked. The popup includes a message about the successful signing of the document and asks the user to confirm whether to complete the process and log out.
Added state variables `_isLoggingOut` and `_submitConfirmVisible` to manage the popup visibility and logout process. Created `OpenSubmitConfirmPopup` to toggle the popup and `SubmitAndLogoutAsync` to handle the submission process, including logging out via `AuthService` and navigating to the login page.
Updated the `@code` block with the new state variables and methods for managing the submit and logout functionality.
Added a check for `_sig` being `null` to handle cache misses or missing `sid`. Logged a warning with `Sid` and `EnvelopeKey` details when this occurs. Implemented a redirection to the report page (`/envelope/{EnvelopeKey}/report`) using `Navigation.NavigateTo` with `forceLoad: true`. Added an early return to prevent further execution after redirection.
Refactored the signature box layout to dynamically calculate
positions based on content, improving flexibility and precision.
Introduced new constants (`lineH`, `bgPad`) to standardize
spacing and replaced hardcoded values for better maintainability.
Adjusted background rectangle sizing to fit content dynamically
and improved text layout logic to handle optional fields more
gracefully. Simplified image area logic and reduced redundant
calculations. Overall, improved code readability and alignment
for a cleaner, more compact layout.
Introduced a new Blazor page `EnvelopeSenderEditorPage.razor` for editing envelopes with an interactive interface. Integrated `DxPdfViewer` for rendering PDFs and added functionality for uploading, viewing, and interacting with PDF files.
Key features:
- Action bar with buttons for uploading PDFs, toggling signature placement mode, clearing fields, and saving.
- Placement mode for adding signature fields via an overlay, with visual placeholders.
- JavaScript interop (`envelope-editor.js`) for precise click coordinate mapping.
- Error handling for unsupported file types and size limits (50 MB).
- Logging for debugging key actions like PDF uploads and field placements.
Defined constants for accurate signature field dimensions and scaling. Added models (`SignatureFieldDraft`, `OverlayCoords`) to manage state and interactions.
Updated the signature box proportions by adjusting `imgRatio` to 52% and `textRatio` to 43%. Added a cream-tone background with extra padding (`bgPad`) and rendered it behind the signature content. Tightened gaps between the image, separator line, and text area. Increased text row height slightly for better spacing.
Added functionality to render captured signatures onto a PDF document using the PdfSharp library. Introduced a new `_signatures` field to store signature data and updated `OnInitializedAsync` to fetch and process signatures. Implemented the `DrawSignaturesOnPdf` method to overlay signature images, separator lines, and signer details (name, position, place, date) onto the PDF. Added a helper method `DataUrlToBytes` for decoding Base64-encoded signature images. Defined constants for layout and styling to ensure consistent rendering. Updated `Dispose` to clean up resources.
Removed all signature capture and validation functionality, including the signature popup, JavaScript interop, and related backend logic. Simplified the `DxReportViewer` initialization to directly display the signed document. Added support for retrieving cached signatures via the `sid` query parameter. Streamlined error handling, logging, and page metadata. Cleaned up unused imports, constants, and methods to reduce complexity.
Updated button logic to display "Unterschreiben" only when signature fields exist. Changed `_signaturePopupVisible` to always be `false` for consistent popup behavior. Improved navigation after caching a signature by nullifying `_report`, adding a delay for UI updates, and using `forceLoad: true` for clean circuit teardown. These changes enhance user experience and prevent potential crashes.
Changed the navigation path in `LoginReceiverPage.razor` to redirect users to `/envelope/{EnvelopeKey}/report` instead of `/envelope/{EnvelopeKey}` upon a successful login. The `forceLoad: true` parameter remains unchanged to ensure a full page reload.
Replaced the previous signature persistence mechanism with
`IMemoryCache` for temporary storage of captured signatures
using a unique `Guid` key and a 1-minute TTL. Added logging
to track cached signatures and their associated envelope keys.
Removed the logic for rebuilding and displaying reports with
overlaid signatures. Instead, implemented navigation to a
new signed page (`/envelope/{EnvelopeKey}/signed`) with the
signature ID passed as a query parameter.
Added a `PdfSharpFontResolver` class to enable font resolution
for PdfSharp in .NET 8, addressing the lack of system font
access. The resolver reads fonts from the Windows Fonts folder
and supports the Arial font family. Registered the resolver
globally in `Program.cs` using `GlobalFontSettings.FontResolver`.
Updated `Program.cs` with comments explaining the necessity of
the resolver for .NET 8. The resolver includes methods to map
font family names to specific font files and load font data.
Throws a `FileNotFoundException` if required fonts are missing.
Made minor formatting changes in `Program.cs` without altering
the `SwaggerDoc` description functionality.
Refactored `EnvelopeReceiverReportPage.razor` to replace the logic for burning captured signatures with a new approach that draws placeholder boxes for signature fields using the `DrawSignaturePlaceholders` method. Removed the `BurnSignaturesIntoPdf` method and introduced `PDFsharp` for rendering placeholders.
Added `EnvelopeReceiverReportSignedPage.razor` to handle signed envelopes, including a detailed UI for document display, metadata, and a signature popup with "Draw," "Text," and "Image" modes. Integrated JavaScript interop for signature creation and validation.
Updated `EnvelopeGenerator.Server.csproj` to include the `PDFsharp` library. Enhanced error handling, logging, and UI feedback. Improved code readability and maintainability through cleanup and refactoring.
Replaced iText-based PDF processing with DevExpress PdfGraphics API.
Removed `itext` and `itext.bouncy-castle-adapter` dependencies.
Simplified `BuildReport` to burn signatures directly into PDFs
and render all pages using `XRPdfContent` with `GenerateOwnPages = true`.
Consolidated subreport logic into `BuildReport` and removed
`BuildPageSubreport`. Eliminated unused constants and methods,
including `GetPdfPageCount`. Updated XML documentation to reflect
the new implementation. Placeholder implementation for
`BurnSignaturesIntoPdf` added, pending further development.
Added a new Razor page `EnvelopeReceiverReportPage.razor` to display and manage envelope reports at the route `/envelope/{EnvelopeKey}/report`. Integrated DevExpress Blazor Reporting components (`DxReportViewer`, `DxPopup`) for rendering PDF documents and capturing user signatures.
Implemented a multi-tab signature capture interface supporting drawing, text input with font selection, and image uploads. Added support for dynamically overlaying captured signatures on PDF documents using `XRPictureBox`.
Introduced dependency injection for services like `AuthService`, `ReceiverAuthorizationService`, and `PageDataService` to handle authentication, data retrieval, and logging. Included lifecycle methods for user authorization, PDF loading, and restoring cached signatures.
Added validation for signature input, error handling for missing data, and utility methods for building reports, extracting PDF page counts, and converting base64 data URLs. Integrated JavaScript interop for canvas-based signature handling.
Included custom styles and assets, and implemented disposal logic for cleaning up resources.

- **`COPILOT_CONTEXT.md`** - Architecture, coordinate systems, migration status
- **`FORM_APPLICATION_CONTEXT.md`** - Legacy VB.NET features to migrate
---
## Documentation Catalog
This section explains every markdown file in the repo: what it contains, why it exists, and when you need it. Read this before deciding which file to open.
**What:** Deep-dive architecture reference. Covers the full Blazor Auto hybrid setup, authentication flows (JWT + cookies, per-envelope receiver tokens), service registration patterns, coordinate system proof, and an explicit "prefer Server/Server.Client over old WebUI/ReceiverUI" rule.
**Why it exists:** Prevents agents from re-deriving or misinterpreting the hybrid SSR+WASM architecture. Also documents coordinate system evidence to prevent regressions (inches vs. points vs. pixels).
**When you need it:**
- Implementing any new page or service
- Debugging auth/cookie issues
- Any coordinate conversion question
- Unsure which project a new file should go in
**Maintenance:** Update when render mode assignments change, new auth schemes are added, or the coordinate system is touched.
#### `FORM_APPLICATION_CONTEXT.md`
**What:** Comprehensive reverse-engineering of the legacy VB.NET WinForms app (`EnvelopeGenerator.Form`). Documents every form (frmMain, frmEnvelopeEditor, frmFieldEditor, etc.), their UI layout, toolbar actions, data models, coordinate system, and a feature-by-feature migration mapping table to `EnvelopeGenerator.Server`.
**Why it exists:** The WinForms app is the functional specification for the sender-side web UI. It documents the full intended workflow that is being migrated to Blazor — especially the envelope creation, signature field placement, and dashboard features that are not yet implemented.
**When you need it:**
- Implementing any sender-side feature (`/sender`, `/sender/editor`, `/sender/envelope/{id}`)
- Understanding what a specific toolbar button or form should do
- Designing API endpoints for sender workflow
- Checking coordinate system behavior (INCHES proof is here)
**Maintenance:** Update the mapping table as features are implemented (change `❌ Not implemented` → `✅ Exists`). Do not rename `ReceiverUI` back — it was the old project name; current target is `EnvelopeGenerator.Server`.
#### `RECEIVER_PDF_VIEWER_CONTEXT.md`
**What:** Detailed technical reference for the receiver-side PDF viewer (`EnvelopeReceiverPage.razor`). Documents the PDF.js integration, signature button rendering, JS interop API (`window.pdfViewer`), signature capture flow, HiDPI/zoom/thumbnail config, and the full component lifecycle.
**Why it exists:** The receiver PDF viewer is the most complex component in the codebase. This doc prevents agents from misunderstanding the JS↔Blazor boundary, re-implementing already-solved problems (HiDPI, zoom, signature caching), or breaking the signing flow.
**When you need it:**
- Working on `EnvelopeReceiverPage.razor` or `pdf-viewer.js`
- Adding new signature field rendering logic
- Debugging signature rendering, zoom, or thumbnail issues
- Implementing sender-side PDF.js overlay (signature field placement) — the receiver side is the reference implementation
**Maintenance:** Update when `pdf-viewer.js` API changes, new JS interop functions are added, or the signing flow is modified.
#### `DATABASE_STRUCTURE_CONTEXT.md`
**What:** Deep DB documentation for the envelope domain. Includes table/column snapshot, entity-to-table mapping, EF relationship/constraint map, stored procedure behavior + call sites, and trigger behavior + wiring path.
**Why it exists:** DB is centralized and can evolve independently; this file preserves migration-critical data semantics when historical DB context is hard to recover.
**When you need it:**
- Planning or reviewing DB/schema changes
- Debugging status transitions/history side effects
- Tracing where `PRSIG_*` procedures or DB triggers affect app behavior
- Reconciling Domain entities with physical SQL schema
**Maintenance:** Refresh on each DB migration, trigger/procedure change, or significant Domain/EGDbContext model change.
**What:** IIS publish and deployment guide for `EnvelopeGenerator.Server`. Covers why self-contained publish is required (WASM assembly version strictness), the exact `dotnet publish` command, IIS Application Pool settings (`No Managed Code`), directory structure after publish, and common deployment errors.
**Why it exists:** Blazor Auto (Server + WASM hybrid) has non-obvious deployment requirements that differ from a standard ASP.NET Core app. Forgetting self-contained publish or using the wrong app pool will break WASM loading in production.
**When you need it:**
- Deploying to IIS for the first time
- Troubleshooting 500 errors on production after deploy
- Setting up a new deployment environment
**Maintenance:** Update if the publish target, IIS config, or runtime version changes.

## Markdown Audit Snapshot (2026-10-05)
The following table summarizes repository markdown files by practical status: completed, partially complete, or removable candidates.
| File | Type | Status | Missing / Gap | Removal Recommendation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| `AGENTS.md` | Agent onboarding | Partially complete | Route/migration statements can drift from real code over time. | Keep |
| `COPILOT_CONTEXT.md` | Architecture reference | Partially complete | Some route/render details may be out of sync with other docs; needs regular reconciliation. | Keep |
| `FORM_APPLICATION_CONTEXT.md` | Legacy-to-modern feature spec | Partially complete | Large sections still marked not implemented / needs implementation. | Keep |
| `RECEIVER_PDF_VIEWER_CONTEXT.md` | Receiver PDF viewer deep-dive | Partially complete | Long migration plan needs periodic sync with active implementation. | Keep |
| `SENDER_SAVE_EDIT_MIGRATION_PLAN.md` | Sender workflow implementation plan | Partially complete | No explicit implementation progress markers per phase. | Keep (until migration closes) |
| `ignore/EnvelopeGenerator/EnvelopeGenerator.Web/wwwroot/lib/bootstrap-icons/README.md` | Vendor README in archive area | Secondary | Archive-only utility, not active docs. | Removable/archive |
| `ignore/EnvelopeGenerator/EnvelopeGenerator.Web/wwwroot/lib/jquery-validation/LICENSE.md` | Duplicate license in archive area | Redundant | Duplicate copy under `ignore/`. | Removable/archive (if legal policy allows) |
- [ ] Validate this markdown audit table against the current codebase and update statuses (`complete`, `partial`, `incomplete`, `removable`) when implementation changes land.
**Backend + API Host:**`EnvelopeGenerator.Server` (ASP.NET Core 8.0, merged Blazor + Web API host)
**Proxy:** YARP in WebUI routes `/api/*` → `localhost:8088` (API)
**Proxy:** YARP in `EnvelopeGenerator.Server` is used for external integrations (for example AuthHub forwarding), not for routing app APIs to `EnvelopeGenerator.API`.
### Deprecated Projects - DO NOT USE
-`EnvelopeGenerator.ReceiverUI` - Pure WASM (migrated to WebUI)

## Technical Debt TODOs
- **CRITICAL (Licensing / pre-commercial release):** Remove all `SixLabors.ImageSharp` and `QRCoder-ImageSharp` package dependencies from production/runtime projects before commercial release. Replace remaining QR/image paths with permissive-license alternatives (no copyleft/share-source obligations), run repo-wide package audit (`*.csproj`), and add CI guardrails to block reintroduction.
- Refactor `EnvelopeGenerator.Server/EnvelopeGenerator.Server/Components/Pages/EnvelopeSenderPage.razor` to reduce complexity.
- Move sender dashboard business/status logic into dedicated services and extension methods (for example effective status resolution, tab classification, receiver signed/rejected detection, and grid-layout filter sanitation).
- Keep `EnvelopeSenderPage.razor` focused on UI composition/state orchestration; avoid embedding heavy domain logic directly in the Razor component.
- Apply a modular page architecture across Server pages (starting with `EnvelopeGenerator.Server/EnvelopeGenerator.Server/Components/Pages/EnvelopeSenderPage.razor`): split large pages into smaller subcomponents/partial modules, eliminate duplicated code paths, and centralize shared UI/domain logic for maintainability.
- Perform a senior-level page performance review across sender/receiver flows before further UX changes: verify route transitions, component mount/unmount behavior, loading-state correctness, duplicate API calls, and perceived latency (first meaningful paint and return-navigation responsiveness). Treat loading logic defects as architecture/performance issues first, not styling problems.
- Audit `EnvelopeGenerator.Server/EnvelopeGenerator.Server.Client/Services/` for unnecessary request/payload remapping and remove redundant mappings where direct request DTO usage is safe; review client HTTP methods end-to-end for similar avoidable transformation layers.
- Centralize dependency injection registrations into dedicated extension methods/modules (especially server + client service registrations in `Program.cs`) to reduce startup composition sprawl and improve maintainability.
- Refactor `EnvelopeGenerator.Server/EnvelopeGenerator.Server/Controllers/PdfRenderController.cs` + matching client service contract to remove JSON/base64 `byte[]` transport for PDF rendering; prefer binary streaming (`application/octet-stream` or multipart), avoid `data:` URL bloat where possible, and validate end-to-end memory/latency behavior with large PDFs.
- Establish a DevExpress toast-based notification architecture using `DxToastProvider` + `IToastNotificationService` (tab/page-scoped provider strategy, standardized `ToastOptions` factory, and severity-to-style mapping) so sender/receiver flows show consistent, non-duplicated, actionable feedback.
- Eliminate manual property-by-property request→domain mapping drift (example: `CreateEnvelopeCommandHandler`) by introducing a standardized mapping policy (AutoMapper/profile conventions or reflection/source-generator based mapper) and enforcing it across envelope workflows; this needs to be solved in the shared company Core library level so all services get the same guardrails by default.
- P1 security workstream: remove dynamic SQL string composition/interpolation from active save/create/update paths (`string.Format`, `$"...{input}..."`, `ToSqlParam`) and migrate to parameterized queries only; treat this as a potential SQL injection vulnerability (stability + security risk), execute repo-wide audit, and add CI guardrails to block reintroduction.
- Alternative UX design (Server component): in `EnvelopeGenerator.Server/EnvelopeGenerator.Server/Components/Pages/EnvelopeSenderPage.razor`, enforce deterministic row double-click behavior as exactly one action (preview OR edit), and keep row action buttons/tooltips aligned with the same rule to eliminate ambiguous navigation.
- Implement SPA-style language switching so the UI culture updates immediately without a full page reload.
- Implement sender-scoped caching for "recent receiver suggestions" used during envelope creation (wizard/editor flows): cache key should include sender identity, support short TTL + invalidation hooks after successful envelope receiver writes, and prevent cross-sender suggestion leakage.

### Data Structure (Domain + EGDbContext)
Use this as the canonical quick map before touching sender/receiver workflow code.
#### Core Aggregate Shape
-`Envelope` (`TBSIG_ENVELOPE`) is the root aggregate for sending workflow.
-`Envelope -> Documents` is `1:N` via `Document.EnvelopeId` (`TBSIG_ENVELOPE_DOCUMENT`).
-`Envelope -> Histories` is `1:N` via `History.EnvelopeId` (`TBSIG_ENVELOPE_HISTORY`).
-`Envelope <-> Receiver` is `N:N` through `EnvelopeReceiver` (`TBSIG_ENVELOPE_RECEIVER`, composite PK `{EnvelopeId, ReceiverId}`).
-`Document -> DocReceiverElement` is `1:N` via `DocReceiverElement.DocumentId` (`TBSIG_DOCUMENT_RECEIVER_ELEMENT`).
-`DocReceiverElement -> ElementAnnotation` is `1:N` via `ElementAnnotation.ElementId` (`TBSIG_DOCUMENT_RECEIVER_ELEMENT_ANNOTATION`).
_logger.LogError("EmailAddress claim is not found in envelope-receiver-read-only creation process. Create DTO is:\n {dto}",JsonConvert.SerializeObject(createDto));
