An error occurred while saving the comment An error occurred while saving the comment Hi, Egor. Unfortunately it's not possible for me to check this on Windows.
Like I said, I can make this happen quite consistently in the macOS version, though. And I just noticed that selecting a new object is not even required for right-clicks to not be registered. Here's something to try:
1. Make a new empty document.
2. Move the mouse pointer over the artboard. Keep it still while doing the next steps.
3. Right-click. Context-menu opens.
4. Right-click again, menu closes.Repeat steps 3 and 4 until Illustrator stops registering right mouse button clicks. Happens after opening the menu once or twice for me.
It would appear that moving the mouse resets the state of some unknown thing in either Illustrator or macOS?
An error occurred while saving the comment I just confirmed that the issue is also present on a 2020 M1 MacBook Air, using the same version of Illustrator and the same mouse. macOS Ventura 13.2.1.
Using the trackpad doesn't appear to fix the issue, but right-clicks do appear to register much more consistently using touch input. Possibly because it's a bit slower and the time between clicks is longer?
Another update:
Doing the steps in my previous comment while having the Line tool selected results in right-clicking first opening the context menu a few times, but following that right-clicking inexplicably opens the Line segment tool settings popup window as if I had left-clicked instead of right-clicked!
The context menu closes with a very noticeable fadeout animation on macOS. I think something might be going wrong if the user right-clicks while the menu is still fading out?
Doing repeated right-clicks while making sure that the fade out animation is over before clicking would appear to make things work as expected... Am I just too fast for Illustrator to handle?
