Can swipe gesture be disabled when using Touch Panel 600 series HMI? By adding a microbrowser, it’ll be disabled but is there any other known method for that? To prevent accidentally open it by the operator, there is a need to disable it.

Correct, this is named as swipe gesture in device manual.

I had the question once. To disable this menu :

In the /etc/specific/gesture.conf you need to set “state” to “disabled”

> state= **disabled**  
> scroll=yes  
> scroll\_wheel\_value=15  
> startrange\_cap=2.5  
> startrange\_res=0.5  
> arraysize=60  
> movelength=18  
> menu=yes  
> menu-timeout=5  
> menu-margin-left=10  
> menu-margin-right=90  
> menu-orientation=top  
> btn0=1  
> id0=ID\_WBM  
> btn1=1  
> id1=ID\_PLCLIST  
> btn2=1  
> id2=ID\_TARGETVISU  
> btn3=1  
> id3=ID\_DISPLAYCLEANING

- If you want to set it up quickly (for non expert user) I’ve made an ipk file for a customer :  
[disablemenu\_v1.0.0\_armhf.txt](https://www.wago.community/uploads/short-url/gpRtRn2yEymBkhuN9S8DxVypvbC.txt) (878 Bytes)
- Rename .txt to .ipk
- Install it using the WBM (with “force install”)
- Reboot the panel.
