# Triggers using mouse or touch display From v1.6.1, you can use onClick/onTouch events as a trigger for activating content playback in a SMIL Playlist. ## Using onClick/onTouch to trigger content - The `origin` is always set as `mouse` - `data`: no data specified in this case. A SMIL file can have only one onClick/onTouch trigger per playlist. - `action` is always set to `click` You can define any number of triggers with various `data` values. Each `data` must be unique, and one `data` should not be a substring of another. ```xml ``` ### Define region for triggered content Read more about regions for triggered content in the [Triggers article](https://docs.signageos.io/hc/en-us/articles/4405241368978). ```xml

``` ### Define content triggered by the trigger ```xml

``` ### Trigger duration It's possible to specify trigger duration either by the `dur` attribute, which takes values in seconds, or by the `repeatCount` attribute, which counts each play of the trigger. ```xml

``` ### Trigger cancellation By default, a trigger is cancelled by itself when it's finished playing or by another trigger that was triggered later. If you want to cancel a trigger prematurely, without running any other trigger, you can specify the `end` attribute with the same value specified in the `begin` attribute. This way, when you perform a mouse click to activate a trigger that's already playing, it will be cancelled, and the SMIL player will resume original playback. ```xml
