What happened?

Basically easystroke works with the client's own mouse, but will not work with the mouse of the server (which shares its mouse) .

More specifically, I want the right mouse context menu to show after the button is released.
And I follow the method mentioned in here to install easystroke.

  1. Install Easystroke
  2. Open Easystroke then go to preferences tab, in Behavior section click Gesture Button
    and right click on the rectangular area in Select a Mouse or Pen Button window.
  3. In Timeout Profile dropdown list pick up Timeout Off
