Hi. I’ve just downloaded Collabora so I can create & edit documents in my Lenovo Tab P12. But the mouse doesn’t seem to work in this system- eg, I can’t highlight text with it to copy / paste etc etc. Is this a glitch that can be remedied, or is there a setting somewhere that will let me use the mouse properly?

Thanks!

Hmmm… strange. The mouse should work. This tablet is just like a Windows PC, right?

- Which version of Collabora did you install?
  - Can you give the exact **Help \> About** info?

- Which version of Windows is it?
