Collect: Signature, geotrace & geoshape crash

[rcovane]

Software and hardware versions

Collect v1.4.16, Android v4.4.2, device used Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 (SM-T231)

Problem description

When using geotrace or geoshape or image (with appearance of signature) the app fails to finalize the interview. Tried to make separated form sample to see where was the problem but it persists.

Steps to reproduce the problem

Separated the parts into different forms to see the behaviour of the questions types.

Expected behavior

The ODK collect stop working when it comes to finish the interview. Finalize screen don't show up.

Stacktrace seems to be class cast exception on the form:

@rcovane I think the issue is with the form's settings section. If you use concat(${id}) instead of ${id}, then it should work just fine. The later is inferring the instance name as an IntegerData, with concat I think it will convert it to StringData.

Give it a try and let us know here.

Thank you @nribeka. I tried it and worked. I even used all (trace, shape, signature and sketch) in one form and it worked just fine.
