Long press performs both left and right click

Open huyz-git opened this issue 5 years ago • 5 comments

For example, when I long press on a hyperlink, the context menu shows, but the hyperlink opens right after I stop pressing. See this video: simplescreenrecorder-2019-12-22_13 41 58 It seems that long press actually performs both left and right click. The device I uses is wacom's tablet.

This might happen on some devices; since this program only ADDs events, it cannot filter out original events emitted by the device.

I have this as well, my solution is to slightly drag off the link while holding the long press and then let go, and click my choice in the rt click menu.

I am facing the problem that the context menu immidiately disappears after popping up. Seems like this is the issue.

I have the same issue on XFCE4/Alpine Linux :)
