There is a shape object in that area the user is supposed to right click. Has any of you had this problem.

If you're not sure, you can remove the driver, restart Windows, and let it find the mouse again on startup, and use the default mouse driver.

I had a screen that worked fine then a small section started not reacting to mouse clicks. I moved the objects out of that area and they reacted fine. I later moved the objects back and they continued to work fine. I have to admit it made me think I was crazy for a while. Then I ask my wife and she verified that I was.
