I'm on macOS 11.1 running Scroll Reverser 1.8 beta 1.

I've noticed that sometimes I cannot right click and the select an item from the contextual menu, because the menu very quickly closes. Or recently I was unable to select text because the text was constantly being unselected again.

It doesn't happen all the time, but the last time it happened I quit Scroll Reverser and the problem went away.

Perhaps there is something Scroll Reverser is doing on a timer that is interrupting events? This might also explain some of the other reports about being unable to do certain kinds of gestures.

Keep an eye on it. Scroll Reverser does not modify or monitor mouse movement or click events but it does monitor gesture and scroll events using event taps. The scroll tap is active (meaning it can modify events) but the gesture monitor is passive (read only). If you are able to reliable recreate the problem do let me know and post as much detail as you can.

Does the contextual menu problem happen in any particular app?

Hm, I don't associate it with any particular app. I haven't seen it since disabling Scroll Reverser, but I don't think it's been enough time to tell.

I don't know

Just pondering on this. Is it possible you might have any other utilities running that combine with Scroll Reverser to cause a conflict?

It might be worth trying disabling BetterTouchTool temporarily with Scroll Reverser running. Any conflict?

I tried but results didn't changed. By the way, I determined another hardware problems of my mouse so it can the reason of the problem.
