Include an On Touch Advance To command in the playlist.
Include an On Touch Change Layout command in the playlist.
Play an HTML page in the zone.
To add items, click on the playlist's Specials tab and select those required. You can include more than one On Touch
Advance To or On Touch Change Layout commands in the playlist. Each On Touch command overrides the previous
one. This allows you to have the iCOMPEL change its response to touch events throughout the playlist.
If you enable touch for a zone that is displaying an HTML page, the iCOMPEL passes touch events to the HTML player for
handling. You can use this to allow a user to navigate through web pages using links embedded in the displayed HTML
page.
Note: To use HTML navigation, either omit On Touch playlist items or use Interact Clear (found on the playlist's
Special tab) to deactivate existing On Touch items. Otherwise, On Touch items will take precedence over the HTML
player. Then, the iCOMPEL only passes Left Mouse Button Up and Down events to the HTML player.
To configure touch actions for a layout, on the menu bar click Layouts and select the layout you want to configure. Click
the Interaction tab and select the touch screen actions in response to a touch screen event. The settings include:
Whether a touch response is required for this layout at the layout level or not.
Whether the touch response is a Change Layout or Advance To command.
Whether it is the touch or release operation that causes the action.
The period after which the layout will revert to another layout in the absence of a touch event.
Interaction Processing:
The way the iCOMPEL processes an event depends upon:
The source (touch screen, GPIO, or remote keypad).
The currently active interactions.
The iCOMPEL processes interactions for touch screen events as follows:
1. Creates a list of zones showing items directly underneath the touched screen location.
2. Processes that list in depth order, starting with the top zone.
3. If a zone has an active touch action, and that is not to pass the event to another zone, the iCOMPEL performs the
specified action and stops processing.
4. If no zone has an active touch action, the iCOMPEL performs the touch action defined for the layout.
The iCOMPEL processes interactions for RS-232 input events as follows:
1. Creates a list of all zones showing items coincident to the RS-232 input.
2. Processes that list in depth order, starting with the top zone.
3. If a zone has an active RS-232 input action, and that is not to pass the event to another zone, the iCOMPEL performs
the specified action and stops processing.
4. If no zone has an active RS-232 input action, the iCOMPEL performs the RS-232 action defined for the layout.
The iCOMPEL processes a remote keypad button event as follows:
