Abstract
Control methods of an electronic apparatus having a touch pad are provided. Touch event with the touch pad is first detected. It is then determined whether the touch event is a single-touch event or a multi-touch event. In response to the touch event being the multi-touch event, the touch event is simulated to a first event initialized by a touch panel by a simulation device to generate a multi-touch signal to an operation system such that the operation system performs a corresponding touch simulation.
