How do I create interactive content for a touchscreen?

An interactive sign is a digital sign intended for deployment to a touchscreen.  Interactive signs are created, edited, and deployed in the same way as 'normal signs'.  The only difference is that an interactive sign contains 'events'.  
  1. A touch-event is triggered when a certain layer is touched, making it act like a button
  2. A timeline-event is triggered when the animation reaches a certain frame
  3. A timeout-event is triggered when the user has not interacted with the sign for a specified amount of time
The possible actions for an event are: 
  1. Jump to a particular frame in the sign
  2. Pause/play the animation timeline
  3. Launch a full-screen video playlist (then return to the original sign)
  4. Go to another sign in a sequence
