        If you setup the touchscreen correctly, the touchpen or touch input will "emulate" the mouse. As drastic supports mouse movements it is likely that the touchscreen would work perfectly fine with drastic!

            @Saithris depends on the touchscreen
            keep in mind that the whole screen will be displayed on the touchscreen... so use a bigger one

            Here is a great setup tutorial for a very good 7" Touchscreen (I was using this for some tests):
