Touch panel having virtual function button, method of manufacturing the same, and method of identifying touch conflict on the same
First Claim
1. An identifying method of a touch panel comprising a touch sensing area and a virtual button area, the identifying method comprising steps of:
- a. detecting a function button on the touch panel being touched, wherein the function button corresponds to a first function;
b. detecting an auxiliary button on the touch panel being touched within a preset time after the function button is touched; and
c. executing a second function after step b;
wherein the function button and the auxiliary button are respectively located at two different fixed positions of the virtual button area and coupled to a controller.

Abstract
A touch device capable of identifying touch conflict has at least one function button mounted on a touch panel of the touch device and at least one auxiliary button mounted around the at least one function button. The at least one function button and the at least one auxiliary button are touch-activated. When users simultaneously or sequentially touch the at least one function button and the at least one auxiliary button, the touch device determines that a touch conflict occurs and determines whether to execute a function originally defined by the at least one function button or to execute another function according to the touch conflict.
