As a string, the parameter can take the only value - **'force'**.

So, there are 3 possible values that the parameter can take:

- *true* - dhtmlxGantt tries to detect the touch device by analyzing the user-agent string of the browser and, if a  touch device is detected, enables the touch support.
- *'force'* - enables the persistent touch support, no matter what kind of device is used.
- *false* - disables the touch support.
