[Bug 634228] [NEW] touchscreen does not work correctly with left-handed mouse settings

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Problem:
Touches register as secondary-mouse-button clicks in left-handed configurations.

Expected behavior:
Touches should register as primary-button (left/right-mouse-button on right/left-handed mouse setups respectively) clicks/drags on the screen.
Secondary-mouse-button clicks are emulated in different ways on a touchscreen, for example by a prolonged (2-3 seconds) touch in one place.

To reproduce:
Go to  System -> Preferences -> Mouse and select the Left-handed option. Touch an area on the desktop and observe that the drop-down menu appears, as with a secondary-mouse-button click, as opposed to expected primary-mouse-button click behavior.

** Affects: xf86-input-evtouch (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Incomplete
