*Since scroll functions are not natural Windows functions, not all applications will understand
them correctly.
NOTE
: Analog join number 17204 defines the default action of any press on pad
area 1; join number 17210 defines the default action of any press on pad area 2. 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 its value is 2, there is a right-click action for
each press. If the default action is set to left-click, pressing on the touchpanel twice
will provide double-click capabilities.
