Right Click Options (Hardward mouse)

Open brendanefro opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

Hi this app works great when using touch, but when using a hardware mouse (Such as in Samsung Dex) it is less intuitive. A lot of android file explorers allow you to right click a file and then choose an option (such as copy) and this is similar to how file explorers on PCs work. But for this app the only way to bring up those options with a mouse is to hold the left click. Could you please consider adding the abillity to use the right click on a hardware mouse.

Could you provide a video showing how that works in the other file managers you mentioned?

And e.g. how does Amaze File Manager behave in this case?

IIRC most of the android apps, even the system launcher and settings, treat right-click as back button. Dont know why, but mapping right-click to another action might not be possible
