It replicates the right click well on OOCalc, but not in terminator, Chrome, Nautilus.. On these other applications the window takes focus, but the right click doesn't open the context menu. Using xev I see this for a normal right click from the USB mouse (trackpad output is the same): ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ButtonPress event, serial 33, synthetic NO, window 0x5400001, root 0xae, subw 0x0, time 55611537, (64,83), root:(65,136), state 0x0, button 3, same_screen YES ButtonRelease event, serial 33, synthetic NO, window 0x5400001, root 0xae, subw 0x0, time 55611981, (64,83), root:(65,136), state 0x400, button 3, same_screen YES ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ and this for a "click" using the Print Screen button with xdotool: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ButtonPress event, serial 33, synthetic NO, window 0x5400001, root 0xae, subw 0x0, time 55600764, (64,83), root:(65,136), state 0x0, button 3, same_screen YES ButtonRelease event, serial 33, synthetic NO, window 0x5400001, root 0xae, subw 0x0, time 55600764, (64,83), root:(65,136), state 0x400, button 3, same_screen YES FocusOut event, serial 33, synthetic NO, window 0x5400001, mode NotifyUngrab, detail NotifyPointer FocusIn event, serial 33, synthetic NO, window 0x5400001, mode NotifyUngrab, detail NotifyAncestor KeymapNotify event, serial 33, synthetic NO, window 0x0, keys: 4294967214 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ There seems to be additional FocusOut / FocusIn events in there... not sure if that is relevant! Any pointers would be gratefully received at this point! Cheers
