Just got an Acer Tablet and BBO Vugraph runs fine on it. But my tablet has no mouse support, therefore no "right click" support, and I am not able to turn on the "Show played Card" feature.

I would like to se that feature in the Options menu.

I think the reason it's not in the options menu is because you can set it differently for the main table and the played hands.

Although I've never understood why anyone would want to do that.

Are you sure there's no way to emulate the right click, perhaps by pressing a modifier? Like on Macs with one-button mice, Control-Click is the same as Right-click.

Hi barmar

To the best of my knowledge it's not possible to emulate the right click on the tablet.

I discovered a couple of weeks ago, that there are support for another entry to Bridgebase, where "show played cards" are the default option.

It is www.bridgebase.com/mobile .

:rolleyes:

No, that is a W500. I don't think there is anything similar on an A500.

the manual for the A500 says "Tap and hold: Tap and hold an item to see a list of actions available for that item. On the pop-up menu that appears, tap the action you want to perform."

(I just find it very difficult to believe that an established company like acer would make one of these things without a right-click available)
