Question

2 signature fields in the form. How do I prepare the form so that receiver signs only in 1 of those?

I've got a consent form which has 2 signature fields - one is if the consent is for the adult themself and the other is if the consent is on behalf of their child. 

Form says atleast one signature field should be marked as REQUIRED. How do I prepare that either one of the signature fields must be signed? 

Thanks in advance!

Set them both as Required and as the Signed action of both fields use a script to make the other one not required, like this:

this.getField("Signature2").required = false;

or:

this.getField("Signature1").required = false;

thank you. Sorry for the lay question but where do I type the script? I put both as required and then signature 1 condition to hide it if signature 2 is signed. And vice versa (but that wasn't accepted as it was a circular reference).
