That is because MouseOver is activating the form/control. The touch screen does not know where your finger is until you touch it.
We use touch screens on the shop floor. Use a single form.

If form1 has the focus and I click a button with the mouse on form2, it executes. -----Original Message----- From: delphi-boun...@elists.org [mailto:delphi-boun...@elists.org] On Behalf Of Dean Stow Sent: Friday, 16 September 2011 5:39 a.m. To: 'Moderated List for the Discussion of Delphi Programming excluding Database-related topics' Subject: RE: Button press with touch screen on non-focused form My experience with a D7 app is that the first mouse click activates the form and the 2nd mouse click activates the button. Just like you are describing with the touch pad. -----Original Message----- From: delphi-boun...@elists.org [mailto:delphi-boun...@elists.org] On Behalf Of Ross Levis Sent: Thursday, September 15, 2011 6:24 AM To: 'Borland's Delphi Discussion List' Subject: Button press with touch screen on non-focused form In my D7 app it is possible to have 2 non-modal forms on the screen with buttons on each. A user of my software who has a touch screen says when he touches a button on the form that doesn't currently have the focus, the button doesn't get clicked. First touch only activates the form and a 2nd touch is required. Anyone know why that would be? I would have thought a touch on a screen was identical as clicking with a mouse, and that works fine. I don't have a touch screen so I can't verify it. Any ideas?
