Public bug reported: So it seems. If not, I'd consider this a bug, rather than a RFE. 10 years ago we were told that KDE 3.5 had to go, and Plasma had to come to support such screens.
I searched Dr. Google and I searched in here, and didn't find a bug report, but a number of posts that this would not be working. Now I finally have a decent machine, run Kubuntu 18.04, and have so far not been able to set this functionality up. Under System Settings it doesn't show up as input device, though it is a wacom device on a Lenovo machine. It is a double boot machine and kind of seems to get me back on Windows after some 20 years of absence, because I love the touch screen, including the Thinkpad pen. The pen also works, but also doesn't effect any right click. I am fully agreeable with the behaviour of the context menu popping up from a longer touch of a screen target. ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1816658 Title: Right click on touch screens not supposed to be supported?
