Hi I'd like to use an external touchscreen instead of the phone screen. Is this possible? Would be using a panel pc, Advantech PPC105T, has USB & all the usual connections. Thanks people!

That's actually a PC isn't it, with integrated screen? Think you need to check if it can work as a screen for an external device.
Not just a screen, but as an external touchpad. And then that there is software that will allow you to both mirror the display and forward the touch commands to the phone.
Note that it may also matter what type of phone you have. Some older phones can output video using a MHL adapter, but that won't allow you to use an external touch device at the same time. More recent ones can use a USB-C to HDMI cable, but I expect that to have the same limitation. So I guess you are looking for a USB-to-USB connection, which will require software support from both devices.
