When I am double tapping on the canvas for the right click menu- it is not working. It only works if you click on track pad. The double tap works on layers but not on canvas.

Hi ​@Srabani, thanks for reaching out! 

I’m not aware of double tapping on the canvas to open the right-click menu. Are you actually referring to 2 finger tapping?

If so, that is still working as expected on my end, but please let me know if you’re still running into issues with this.

Hi ​@djv , it’s not working for me either. I used to hit control+right click on trackpad and it opened the right click menu. First I thought it’s only not working onChrome, but now it also happens on Safari. Please help as this is an important feature. I’m not using the mouse, only trackpad.
Please note I have checked preference settings and the CTRL+right click - not working for me at all. This wasn’t an issue a few month ago.

Hi ​@Sonja977, thanks for chiming in here! 

Srabani was referring to two finger tapping. The Preferences setting is actually Ctrl+click opens the right-click menus; not Ctrl + right click and no two finger tapping required. 


Can you please double check if the Ctrl+click opens the right click menus setting is indeed checked under your Preferences and confirm that you are indeed using Ctrl and clicking only once to open the right click menus?​
