Global Touch command?

OK so I have an interactive presentation using a touch screen. All is working fine except that the way I'm doing it is going to take years to program!

I have an initial state which is divided into 4 touch Regions, each region then goes to 250 photos (1000 in total) all with forward and backwards arrows and a home button to take you back to the initial state, all controls are in an identical position on the images.

The only way I can see to do this is open each photo, add 3 touch regions, resize and align and then set each touch region to select a new state. 

This is taking so much time and looks a right mess on the playlist screen, It can't be the correct approach.

What I was expecting to do is have 4 image lists each with the 250 images and set a global touch event for the home function, next image and previous image controls as they are in identical positions on each picture.

 

I can't find this option but i'm sure it must be there somewhere!

 

Any pointers please

    I answered your other post, but copying here for the sake of anyone else who finds this.

    Are all of your images using the same touch events?

    If so, you may want to put the images into an Image List (for sequential access) or Image Play File (for random access), then you can put the Touch Event onto the single List or Play File state rather than every single image.

    Another alternative is to add another zone with a transparent image and put the Touch Event on that image.

    I'm having trouble with the clear PNG zone playing videos.

    I've got a rolling images on zone 1, timed transitions, then zone two i have a clear PNG filling the zone with touch zone events linking to some videos. I'm able to get the videos to play (i can hear the audio) however the slideshow continues and I cant see the video. How do I configure the zones to switch over with a touch panel?

    Both zones fill the whole screen.
