Kudos to getting right-click behaviour like in Windows/Android. I manage to get a near to natural timing of the click using .22sec as the secondary click timing (using dconf). This behaviour is still really unnatural because you never know when you get it right until you lift up the finger. I know you developers work really hard patching up stuff and writing new and cleaner code, but touchscreens have been out for a while and this elemental behaviour has not been address yet...
btw, I'm on an Acer V7 running Ubuntu 14.04 64bit (ELAN touchscreen) Thanks for your work and I hope we get a fix real soon! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to mousetweaks in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1212736 Title: Touch screen: Right click should be emulated by long press, like under Windows 8 and Android Status in “mousetweaks” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “xorg-server” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I have a Lenovo Thinkpad Twist convertible ultrabook (Intel Core i7). The tablet mode (touchscreen-only operation, keyboard folded away) gets continuously working better. One important missing feature is an easy-to-do right click. The right- click emulation button in Onboard is a rather awkward solution, as Onboard only shows up when selecting a text input field. I suggest to emulate the right-click by a long press on the screen. It is done in Android this way, too, and works very well for me. Note that the long-press right-click functionality in "Universal Access" in the Control Center only works with a mouse and not with the touch screen (another bug). I am using Saucy 64-bit and the standard Unity desktop.
