NOTE

:  Analog join number 17204 defines the default action of any press on the touchpanel. 

If its value is 0, there will be no click action, only cursor movement. If its value is 1, there is a 
left-click action for each press. If the default action is set to left-click, pressing on the 
touchpanel twice will provide double-click capabilities.
