i am working on a 3d interface (using OpenGL) which i would like to superimpose on the desktop and whatever is going on. so there is 2 things i have to do:

1. make all the unused space of the ui transparent

this is possible by making the ogl surface non opaque and setting the clear color of the window to 0,0,0,0 (or 0 alpha should suffice). but when the window gets rather big (and i would like it on the whole screen) the transparent part starts flickering a lot and it doesnt behave nice fe with quicktime stuff running behind.

2. pass through mousclicks.

i thought i could track corresponding events (also mouse moved and dragged) and pass those which are on transparent parts through, but i cant find a way to put events back into queue.

any suggestions?
