I might not have been completely clear.

The automatic click, also called hover click or dwell click, is provided
by the mousetweaks package. (1)

The Simulated Secondary Click is also provided by the mousetweaks
package. (2)

The translation of a left click into another click type by using the
click buttons on Onboard is done by Onboard itself, if the automatic
click is disabled. (3)

I don't think that using (1) can make sense on a touch screen; you
should leave the Hover Click in the Universal Access panel disabled.
Option (2) should be usable on a touch screen; but it is some drawbacks
(for example it is not possible to perform a right click with it on a
multiple selection). Option (3) should work universally.

Option (2) does not have to be enabled for (3) to work. These are two
independent ways to perform a right click. Are both options to perform a
right click broken on your system?

Title:
  Right-click emulation of Onboard does not work

Status in “onboard” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  If I turn on the mouse button mode of onboard I get some additional
  keys where one is a mouse pointer pointing to the upper right. This
  issupposed to emulate the right mouse button on the touch screen. I
  have clicked this key via the touch screen and then clicked on the
  desktop background. Only after a second click reveals the appropriate
  right-click menu. For a terminal window I do not get the right-click
  menu at all.

  I am using current Saucy with the standard Unity desktop and onboard
  from the Onboard PPA: ppa:onboard/ppa.
