    In Unity Editor 2020, left click will randomly stop working, it seems to be pretty easily caused, just try to go to between game and scene views and it will occur.

    I have this problem that clicks are going totally random, when i select for example the anchor or a game asset from a modal panel it will just quit, its like its clicking behind the modal.
    Another thing when i go and inspect the profiler it will just randomly click the first element every 2 clicks

    I see this is a rather old post, but I am experiencing the same Problem.
    I'm working with the new 2020.3 Unity Editor.
    On Windows 10 I have no Problems on my Linux Machine left click stops working after I hit "Play" the first time. Right click still works though. Left click in-Game also still works.

    That's really annoying. I did not experience this behaviour on the 2019 Editor Verison (with Linux)

    I am having the same issue. Here is what I've observed:
    • Happens When:
      • Opening Package Manager
      • Opening Preferences Menu
      • Performing Drag and Drop from Project to Hierarchy
      • After accepting a change to an asset object in the inspector
      • Creating a new Scene from File menu
    • Affects:
      • Any editor interface that has a scroll-able interface, including Package Manager, Project listing in list or icon mode.
      • Left click is completely unresponsive in affected scroll-able UIs
      • Right click still works to bring up menu in the affected UIs
      • Mouse has no issues outside of Unity nor in other areas:
        • Hierarchy left-clicks work
        • Interactions in Inspector work
    I'm using
    Dell Laptop
    Intel Core i5 2.50GHz * 4
    32 GB
    Fedora 31 (x86-64)
    Cinnamon 4.4.8
    Linux Kernel 5.8.18-100.fv31.x86_64

    Unity 2020.3.8f1
    New project with no extra/external code or assemblies

    Do you really mean, that it completely stops working? For me, it is just shifted, altough this is equally annoying.

    This problem vanished for me after updating to the latest Fedora Version
