The Right Mouse Click problem has been around for a very long time.
I don't know if anyone is looking into it. I have one particular
application where the right mouse button is ignored. I run the VNC
server on a Linux box. I run the viewer, either on the same linux
box, or on a Solaris machine, or on an WinNT machine. The right
mouse button is ignored for my particular application in all scenarios.
I can also confirm that the window manager is not the problem. I run
twm. When I exit twm the problem is still there, for my particular
app, which is Motif-Zmail. Other apps, like Netscape, have no problems
getting the right mouse button events. It is interesting however, that
in the root window in the VNC session the window manager (twm) DOES
get the right mouse button events because the menu I created for it
pops up. I think there might be a problem with the mouse button event
forwarding from the Xvnc server. I don't think the problem is in the
viewer because it happens in both the Windows viewer and the X viewer.
Thanks
