Right click function

How can i do right click on my LG smart TV by my magic remote?

@Diaa237 The Magic Remote is not natively set up to "emulate" the left or right Mouse buttons like on PC's/Laptops, as it is NOT like a mouse at all (other than they have BlueTooth commmunication). However, it is always possible that some APPS on the TV could software "emulate" that by requiring a particular coloured button to be pressed to be "equivalent" to a right-click, if it is ever needed for, say a compatibility reason inside a specific APP.

Where are you seeing this "right-click" asked for, on some odd site on the inbuilt browser maybe? I am very curious about your question.

You can't do any of the things on the TV's browser that you'd need right-clicking for anyway. You can't save files, you can't print, etc. A TV's web browser is the least-useful thing on it. What exactly are you hoping to do on it anyway?

"Stats for nerds" in Chrome (not in the Youtube app).

To "right click" on an LG TV remote with WebOS, press and hold the center wheel (OK button) while hovering over the desired item on the screen; this essentially acts as a right-click function on a computer mouse. 

 

Key points about the LG Magic Remote: 

 

Pointer mode: The remote operates like a computer mouse, allowing you to navigate with the cursor by moving the remote. 

 

Clicking: Pressing the center wheel (OK button) acts as a standard left-click. 

 

Right-click functionality: To simulate a right-click, press and hold the center wheel while hovering over the desired item.
