Xamarin right click event

Is there any way to detect a right click event from a mouse when using Xamarin for a UWP app? There does not seem to be any way to access mouse events except as they simulate touch events.

If this is just a pure UWP app there is a UIElement.PointerPressed Event you can subscribe to. 

void Target_PointerMoved(object sender, PointerRoutedEventArgs e)
{
    Windows.UI.Xaml.Input.Pointer ptr = e.Pointer;

    if (ptr.PointerDeviceType == Windows.Devices.Input.PointerDeviceType.Mouse)
    {
        Windows.UI.Input.PointerPoint ptrPt = e.GetCurrentPoint(Target);

        if (ptrPt.Properties.IsRightButtonPressed)
        {
            // Do something
        }

        // Prevent most handlers along the event route from handling the same event again.
        e.Handled = true;
    }
}

Check out the docs for more info.
