2019-01-20 15:35:47 Jarno Suni description 'xdotool click 3' does not work. Actual left mouse button does not work afterwards. Using right mouse button before may help. This happens when I run the command as a keyboard shortcut in Xfce. If I use --clearmodifiers, it also happens when I use the command on terminal. Besides: if I use the command as a keyboard shortcut (in Xfce at least) it does not work as a right button click unless I add short delay by sleep command in a script before running xdotool.
