    Does "hover click" exist in kubuntu ?

    Just installed ubuntu and heard about kubuntu.
    Kubuntu looks great, and it seems like the perfect thing for me. But before I intall it thers's somthing I need to know

    Ubuntu has a built in application that's called "Hover click" that lets you use your mouse without having to click so much (it's bassically an auto clicker program)

    It can be found and activated under System Settings-Universal- Access- Pointing and Clicking- Hover Click.

    I used a live dick of kubuntu and for some reason couldn't find it on kubuntu....

    Does kubuntu have that application ? and if not, can I install somthing similar to it ?

    KMouseTool may be what you're looking for, from description:
    KMouseTool clicks the mouse whenever the mouse cursor pauses briefly. It was
    designed to help those with repetitive strain injuries, for whom pressing
    buttons hurts.

    You did what, now?

      LOL ...typos can be freaking at times

      as to our subjet
      It looks exactly what I need but does It come with kubuntu or do I need to install it ?

      How do I install application on kubuntu ? does it have something like the "Ubuntu Software Center" ? Does this application can be found and installed direcetly from that "Kubuntu Center" or whatever its name is

      Thanks for your help !

        At least on saucy (13.10 developmen version), 'kubuntu-desktop' package recommends 'kmousetool', so it should be installed by default...but don't know of older releases of kubuntu.

          I used the search box of a Live Disk of Kubuntu 12.04.2 and found it.

          It looks very nice, but for some reason I couldn't activate it .... maybe because It's not supposed to work on a live disk or maybe because I didn't take the time to read the help and did something wrong (even though it doesn't look so complicated to understand) anyway, I'm happy it's installed on the system and am going to take the time to read the help when i install kubuntu in a few days.

          Another thing is that Ubuntu Hover Click lets you use auto click also for right click and double click. Something I havn't seen on KMouseTool.

          Kubuntu looks great by the way but I find the size of the text to be too small for my screen. Is it possible to enlarge the text size on the menues (and maybe the icons on the desktop as well) ?
