1# Touch Event 2 3A touch event is triggered when a finger is pressed against, swipes on, or is lifted from a component. 4 5> **NOTE** 6> 7> This event is supported since API version 7. Updates will be marked with a superscript to indicate their earliest API version. 8 9## onTouch 10 11onTouch(event: (event: TouchEvent) => void): T 12 13Invoked when a touch event is triggered. 14 15**Atomic service API**: This API can be used in atomic services since API version 11. 16 17**System capability**: SystemCapability.ArkUI.ArkUI.Full 18 19**Parameters** 20 21| Name| Type | Mandatory| Description | 22| ------ | --------------------------------- | ---- | -------------------- | 23| event | [TouchEvent](#touchevent) | Yes | **TouchEvent** object.| 24 25**Return value** 26 27| Type| Description| 28| -------- | -------- | 29| T | Current component.| 30 31## TouchEvent 32 33Inherits from [BaseEvent](ts-gesture-customize-judge.md#baseevent). In non-injected event scenarios, **changedTouches** indicates points resampled according to the screen's refresh rate, while **touches** indicates points based on the device's refresh rate. As such, the data in **changedTouches** may differ from that in **touches**. 34 35**System capability**: SystemCapability.ArkUI.ArkUI.Full 36 37| Name | Type | Description | 38| ------------------- | ---------------------------------------- | ------------ | 39| type | [TouchType](ts-appendix-enums.md#touchtype) | Type of the touch event.<br>**Atomic service API**: This API can be used in atomic services since API version 11. | 40| touches | Array<[TouchObject](#touchobject)> | All finger information.<br>**Atomic service API**: This API can be used in atomic services since API version 11. | 41| changedTouches | Array<[TouchObject](#touchobject)> | Finger information changed.<br>**Atomic service API**: This API can be used in atomic services since API version 11.| 42| stopPropagation | () => void | Stops the event from bubbling upwards or downwards.<br>**Atomic service API**: This API can be used in atomic services since API version 11.| 43| preventDefault<sup>12+</sup> | () => void | Blocks the default event.<br> **NOTE**<br>This API is only supported by the following components: **Hyperlink**.

The touch event frequency of a frame varies by device, and all touch events of the current frame are referred to as its historical points. This API can be called only in [TouchEvent](#touchevent). You can use this API to obtain the historical points of the current frame when [onTouch](#ontouch) is invoked. [onTouch](#ontouch) is invoked only once for a frame. If the value of [TouchEvent](#touchevent) received by the current frame is greater than 1, the last point of the frame is returned through [onTouch](#ontouch). The remaining points are regarded as historical points. 50 51**Atomic service API**: This API can be used in atomic services since API version 11. 52 53**System capability**: SystemCapability.ArkUI.ArkUI.Full 54 55**Return value** 56 57| Type | Description | 58| ------ | ----------------------- | 59| Array<[HistoricalPoint](#historicalpoint10)>| Array of historical points.| 60 61 62## TouchObject 63 64**System capability**: SystemCapability.ArkUI.ArkUI.Full 65 66| Name | Type | Description | 67| ------- | ------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------- | 68| type | [TouchType](ts-appendix-enums.md#touchtype) | Type of the touch event.<br>**Atomic service API**: This API can be used in atomic services since API version 11. | 69| id | number | Unique identifier of a finger.<br>**Atomic service API**: This API can be used in atomic services since API version 11. | 70| x | number | X coordinate of the touch point relative to the upper left corner of the event responding component.<br>Unit: vp<br>**Atomic service API**: This API can be used in atomic services since API version 11.| 71| y | number | Y coordinate of the touch point relative to the upper left corner of the event responding component.<br>Unit: vp<br>**Atomic service API**: This API can be used in atomic services since API version 11.| 72| windowX<sup>10+</sup> | number | X coordinate of the touch point relative to the upper left corner of the application window.<br>Unit: vp<br>**Atomic service API**: This API can be used in atomic services since API version 11. | 73| windowY<sup>10+</sup> | number | Y coordinate of the touch point relative to the upper left corner of the application window.<br>Unit: vp<br>**Atomic service API**: This API can be used in atomic services since API version 11. | 74| displayX<sup>10+</sup> | number | X coordinate of the touch point relative to the upper left corner of the application screen.<br>Unit: vp<br>**Atomic service API**: This API can be used in atomic services since API version 11. | 75| displayY<sup>10+</sup> | number | Y coordinate of the touch point relative to the upper left corner of the application screen.<br>Unit: vp<br>**Atomic service API**: This API can be used in atomic services since API version 11. | 76| screenX<sup>(deprecated)</sup> | number | X coordinate of the touch point relative to the upper left corner of the application window.<br>Unit: vp<br>This API is deprecated since API version 10.
