Singletouch and context menu - deadland - 2012-02-05

Dear xbmc-friends,

My System
  • eden beta 2 (standalone mode; xbmc-team/unstable ppa)
  • asus eee slate,
  • ubuntu oneiric 64bit
  • the proprietary eGalax touch screen drivers

Circumstances:
The eGalax-driver only provides single-touch, which means the right-click (context menu) is only simulated. Simulated means, that I have to press at least 750 ms the screen, which than the eGalax-driver interprets as right click.

Issue:
Since the confluence skin do not know of the simulated right click it interprets pressing the screen 750 ms as left click and afterwards the driver sends a right click.

Possible solutions, from a user perspective

(1) provide a simulated right click logic directly by the confluence skin

(2) omnipresent "context-menu" button


Thanks
