Probably UI Mouse Event Handling Bug introduced in 5.5

Hi, i had to revert to 5.4.3 on my MacBook Pro late 2011 with High Sierra because it's impossible for me in 5.5 to open pop-up Menu items with a simple trackpad click. The menu pop-ups appear and instantly disappear again, on some buttons/dropdown-list it's possible to circumvent the problem with a right click (two finger tap) instead of a left click. reverting to 5.4.3 and the problem is gone.

it seems that a click is registered two times and thus the menu is closed instantly again.

Can you tell me if you have it set for tap or click?

i have set it to tap, and already tried disabling it. But it looks like that there is a connection. If i tap the dropdown menu for
switching to export, performance and so on mode the dropdown list disappears instantly. If i click (press down trackpad) it stays. Different story with the burger menu button in export mode, this menu only works if i two-finger tap or two finger click.

For the record, same symptoms in 5.6

Given that you're the first and only one to report this, I wonder if there's something else at play. Can you create a new (temporary) user profile on your system and see if this persists with that profile?

I am the first? You replied in this thread: https://forums.pioneerdj.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360043350652-Rekordbok-DJ-5-4-4-beta-2-right-click-issues-on-mac-Mojave
So the issue appeared the first time even in this older beta

Sigh, FINALLY I found the source of this problem.

well, turns out that it's not a bug within rekordbox, the tool "PopClip" interferes with rekordbox starting with version 5.5. Switching off PopClip while using rekordbox and everything acts normal again.

I don't consider "beta" versions to be the same, but I'm glad you found it.

I may be on to something:

I was able to help a fella here

turns out that another Accessibility third party tool causes the same problem. Those tools worked perfectly alongside rekordbox from day 1 to 5.4. I can reproduce the problem with PopClip on High Sierra and Mojave, so it's not Mac OS version dependent.
