There are two keys showing a pointer arrow pointing to the left on the
Onboard layout. The key with only the pointer is to show and hide the
click buttons. The key with a small clock (disk) on its left is to
enable and disable automatic click. The automatic click is an
accessibility feature that performs automatically a click each time the
pointer stops moving.

If the automatic click is enabled, Onboard does not replace a manual
left click with a right click. In this case, the click conversion only
acts on automatic clicks. Since you are using a touch screen, you should
keep the automatic click disabled.

If you get right clicks after holding your finger for a small lapse of
time motionless on the touch screen, you might have the Simulated
Secondary Click running. You can find the option to enable and disable
the Simulated Secondary Click in the Universal Access panel of the
System Preferences of Ubuntu.

Title:
  Right-click emulation of Onboard does not work

Status in “onboard” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  If I turn on the mouse button mode of onboard I get some additional
  keys where one is a mouse pointer pointing to the upper right. This
  issupposed to emulate the right mouse button on the touch screen. I
  have clicked this key via the touch screen and then clicked on the
  desktop background. Only after a second click reveals the appropriate
  right-click menu. For a terminal window I do not get the right-click
  menu at all.

  I am using current Saucy with the standard Unity desktop and onboard
  from the Onboard PPA: ppa:onboard/ppa.
