Can't forward and email on my Chromebook

I'm using Thunderbird on my Chromebook. I can't use the pointer to open the "more options" menu (the three dots) in the email to get to forward and other options. Hovering over the dots shows the "More Options" message, but clicking does not open the menu. I have a touch screen chromebook and discovered that I can touch the three buttons and it opens. Once the menu is opened, the mouse pointer works to select forward and the other options.

Hi Cameron

When you say pointer, are you using some type of stylus. Is the screen touch screen? Does the 3 dot menu work when using your finger?

I'm using a trackpad on a laptop Chromebook, so it's a mouse cursor. The Chromebook happens to have a touchscreen, and the three dot menu works when I touch it with my finger, but not when use the cursor. All other menus and selections work with the cursor.
