I had never turned on anything on the Pointing and Clicking tab of
Universal Accessibility. I always never turned on automatic clicking in
Onboard, I even never tested this.

When I saw that with a touch screen I cannot right-click, I tried at
first the right-click emulation of Onboard. From the mouse control keys
it is the one with the mouse pointer pointing to the upper right. I
NEVER clicked the mouse pointer with the clock.

To do a right click I clicked this mouse pointer pointing to the upper
right and after this I clicked on the desktop background, getting no
reaction and the right-click key on Onboard staying pressed. On a second
click on the desktop background the background's right-click menu
appeared and the right-click key on Onboard released. Sometimes I need
to do several clicks until finally the right-click menu opens and the
key releases.

Then I tried the other alternative: In Universal Access under Pointing
and Clicking I turned on the long-press right click,  the second of the
three options. After that I did long presses and never got a menu, even
after moving the slider to a shorter long-press time. I NEVER turned on
Hover Click.

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.
