Area-Specific Barcode Scanning
I'd like to see a bar or other visual indicator on the barcode scanner that will let me choose one barcode from several adjacent barcodes.
I'm building an Asset Management Application, and I'm using the mobile platform to scan things like Serial Number, MAC address and other information off of the package of new laptops. Trying to scan a barcode where there are several in the field of view is impossible. My current workaround is to cover the unwanted codes with stickies to reveal only the one I want, but I'd love to see a more elegant solution.
Thanks!

Hi Troy,
That's a great suggestion! We can certainly understand how it would be difficult to scan a barcode when there are multiple in the view. We will pass this request along to our product team. Please keep the ideas coming!
