+- ``id`` is a number provided by the touchscreen to uniquely identify the touch on a multi-touch screen.
+- ``state`` indicates the state of the touch. This can be **1**, indicating it is an initial touch, or **2** indicating the touch position has changed/moved.

 - ``x_last`` and ``y_last`` are the previous position.
 - ``x_first`` and ``y_first`` are the position of the touch when it was first detected.
 - ``x_raw`` and ``y_raw`` are for calibrating the touchscreen in relation of the display. This replaces the properties with the same name in the touchscreen classes.

+
+Be aware that you need to check the state flag every time to see if the touch is still valid.
+
+- state value 0. means the touch is invalid as the touch is no longer detected.
+- state value 1 means is being the first time detected. 
+- state value 2 means the touch is still being detected but is moved on the screen.
+- state value 4 and higher means a touch release is detected.
