4.1.1.1 Tap to Scan

When scanning a QR Code with the camera, tapping (clicking) anywhere in the preview area provides the ability to acquire video data at that moment and execute the scan. When capturing, the focus and brightness are automatically adjusted to read more detailed image data. The tap-to-scan function also executes a more detailed scan than a normal camera scan.

To perform a tap to scan, first start reading the QR Code with the camera. See 4.1.1 Reading QR Codes with a camera for information on how to start reading with the camera.
