 Hello,

 I want to implement the following scenario:

 when user browses a web page and right-click a link, then user can

 Is it possible in Android?

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.

[android-developers] Re: Does Android Browser support right menu - open with ?

2009-01-22 Thread Scynasty

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.

2009-01-22 Thread Guolong

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).
