EOS R Lock focus point to center or disable touch?

Are there any way do disable the touch screen to lock the focus to the center of the screen? I have problems with the focus point is all over the screen and moves when my nose touch the screen. Or if I touch it accidentally. And I think it is a slow process to move the focus with my fingers when I am in a fast stills situation. I like the old DSLR way; focus and reframe the subject. I am aware of the Thrash Can button for center the focus point. But to seconds after, the focus point is somewhere else on the screen. I can disable the whole screen from touch, but then you loose a lot of features. I love the focus touch on video, but not so much for stills!

Are you having problems accidentally touching the screen all the time, or mainly when using the EVF (e.g. your nose touching the screen)?

If it's the latter, then you could just disable the Touch and Drag feature (or at least move the area to somewhere you nose isn't prone to accidentally touching). This should solve your issues while you use the EVF.

(On a side note, this is with the EOS RP but I'm going with the assumption that the EOS R will have similar settings)

I set mine to use just the top right quarter of the screen. There has to be one quarter that is out of the way of your nose.

I also set a button to center the focus point. I use the AF on button. The trash can button centers the focus point by default.

I find relative movement easier than absolute.

RDKirk's recent post on the Lock dial (https://www.dpreview.com/forums/post/62425825) gaves me this idea: use the Lock dial to disable touch screen. Then you can quickly enable or disable touch depending on what you're doing at that moment.

Same here, my thumb rests on the upper portion of the back screen and I can not get anything focused when its focusing in the upper right side of the screen. So irritating!

For the R body.  Set the rear screen to display only the Settings while you're photographing using the EVF - you can cycle screens with INFO button.  The screens available can be configured in the menu, it's the yellow menu page 4 "shooting info disp" then "screen info settings" - you might only want 2 or 3 screens anyway.  I use screens 2 (full info), 4 (no info), and 5 (Settings).  When it's only showing Settings, touching the screen accidentally or bumping it when moving has no effect and so your focus point won't move.  There is another advantage to using the Settings screen as your default, because one press of the Q button then gives you touch screen access to all (or most) of your camera settings, which I find very handy. When you want to photograph using the rear screen, just cycle to the live view screen.

On the R5 one of the screens available is "blank", but this isn't possible on the R with the current firmware.
