touch screens do not have a right click...think in terms of finger tip movements On Jan 22, 2:16 am, Guolong liuguolong...@gmail.com wrote: Hello, I want to implement the following scenario: when user browses a web page and right-click a link, then user can choose to open the link with a different Application (except Browser).

If you long-press on a link, the browser brings up a menu of options. If that isn't sufficient, can you explain in more detail the scenario you'd like to support? What is the link to? Is it sufficient that you can copy the link to the clipboard?

To right-click something, be sure you use the rightmost finger on the hand you're using to click. For example, if you normally use the index finger of your right hand to click something, use your right pinky instead. If you normally use your left index finger, use your left thumb to right-click. Kidding... There is no such thing as right click on a touch screen. Long clicking is as close as you'll get.

there is a way to run a two finger click like the one on macs. if you run an if statement in ontouchevent if (event.getSize .6) { } this will get the size of the touch to the screen. placing two fingers on the screen makes the screen see one big finger even if the fingers are not touching. most single finger clicks are around .3 for their size while double finger is around .8 so it is almost impossible to run this if statement with one finger.

Thanks you all, guys... In my scenario, the link is just a common HTML page. User could choose to open the link with another application. So copy the link to the clipboard could work. Then user paste the link to the application for input. I just wonder are there some more user-friendly solution (e.g. right menu - open with application).
