For interpreting a click action, an apparatus includes a touch panel, a processor, and a memory that stores code, executable by the processor, including code that: determines a number of touch points for a click action of the touch panel, determines a touch force for each touch point of the click action, identifies a number of click points for the click action based on the touch force of each touch point, and outputs a click event based on the number of click points. The apparatus may also include code that determines a click location associated with the click action, in response to the number of click points being one, and compares the click location to a first area, wherein outputting a click event includes outputting a primary click event, in response to the click location being within the first area.
