I have touchscreens and computers that connect to the same project. Is there a way to toggle the touchscreeen mode on/off during or immediately after an autologin?

You can do it in your startup script with the [system.gui.setTouchscreenModeEnabled](http://inductiveautomation.com/support/usermanuals/ignition/index.html?system_gui_settouchscreenmodeenabled.htm) function.

```auto
if condition(): 
     system.gui.setTouchscreenModeEnabled(0)
```
