How can I enable right click on the touchscreen?

Tue Apr 12, 2016 4:34 am

I use the Raspberry Pi Touch Display https://www.raspberrypi.org/products/ra ... h-display/
And I want to enable right click on the touchscreen, so I do as this page says.https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentati ... hooting.md
How do I enable right click?

You can emulate a right click with a setting change. Just:

Code: Select all

sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Paste in:

Code: Select all

Section "InputClass"
   Identifier "calibration"
   Driver "evdev"
   MatchProduct "FT5406 memory based driver"

   Option "EmulateThirdButton" "1"
   Option "EmulateThirdButtonTimeout" "750"
   Option "EmulateThirdButtonMoveThreshold" "30"
EndSection
Hit CTRL+X and y to save. Then:

Code: Select all

sudo reboot
But I find this method doesn't work, the OS I use is raspbian and the system is already update. How can I enable the right click? Please Help.
