  <title>Simulate a right mouse click</title>

  
You can right-click by holding down the left mouse button. This is useful

  if you find it difficult to move your fingers individually on one hand, or if

  your pointing device only has a single button.

  <steps>

    <item>

      
Open the <gui xref="shell-introduction#activities">Activities</gui> overview and

      start typing <gui>Universal Access</gui>.

    </item>

    <item>

      
Click on <gui>Universal Access</gui> to open the panel.

    </item>

    <item>

      
Press <gui>Click Assist</gui> in the <gui>Pointing & Clicking</gui>

      section.

    </item>

    <item>

      
Switch <gui>Simulated Secondary Click</gui> to <gui>ON</gui>.

    </item>

  </steps>

  
You can change how long you must hold down the left mouse button before it

  is registered as a right click by changing the <gui>Acceptance

  delay</gui>.

  
To right-click with simulated secondary click, hold down the left mouse

  button where you would normally right-click, then release. The pointer fills

  with a different color as you hold down the left mouse button. Once it will

  change this color entirely, release the mouse button to right-click.

  
Some special pointers, such as the resize pointers, do not change colors.

  You can still use simulated secondary click as normal, even if you do not get

  visual feedback from the pointer.

  
If you use <link xref="mouse-mousekeys">Mouse Keys</link>, this also

  allows you to right-click by holding down the <key>5</key> key on your

  keypad.

  <note>

    
In the <gui>Activities</gui> overview, you are always able to long-press

    to right-click, even with this feature disabled. Long-press works slightly

    differently in the overview: you do not have to release the button to

    right-click.
