Chapter 2 Customizing Your Touchscreen Environment 43
Click Time is also the length of time used to distinguish between
first, second, and subsequent clicks. For example, after the first
click is generated in Time/Tap mode, the driver expects a tap event
to generate a second click, but only if the tap occurs within Click
Time. After Click Time, the driver ignores the tap because it now
expects a first press again, and only responds to a time event.
Similarly, after a second click and within Click Time, the driver
expects the event defined for a subsequent button press, if any.
The Click Time is specified in units of 55ms. The slowest value is 14,
which represents approximately 1 second. The fastest value is 0,
which represents either no time (in the case of Time touch events) or
approximately 55ms (in the case of Tap touch events). The default
value is 9, which is a little more than ½ second. Slower values
correspond to a longer amount of time, and faster values correspond
to a shorter amount of time.
MicroTouch recommends that you avoid setting Click Time to the
fastest values because the time intervals may be too fast for some
touch actions, such as using Tap button mode.
This setting takes effect when you click Apply or OK.
To test the Click Time setting:
1. After applying the Click Time change, close the User Controls
dialog box.
2. Open the Button Modes dialog box, change the button mode to
Time mode, and select Apply to apply the change.
For information about changing button modes, refer to “Button
Modes” in this chapter.
3. Touch the Click Test icon and hold your finger (or pen) stationary
on the touchscreen.
The system generates a button press (the icon changes to a smile)
in the time specified by Click Time.
You can use other button modes to test Click Time.
