Hi all,
Some of you might have seen our funny little app called Disctop which
projects your CD on your desktop. I want to add a few features
including a contextual menu. Now Disctop's main window is set to ignore
any mouse clicks right now and hovers between the desktop background
and the icons of the finder. What I would like to achieve is that
Disctop ONLY accepts the right mouse clicks and presents the contextual
menu in that case, while ALL other events should be forwarded to any
responder which comes next, including those in applications with
windows below ours (read: the finder). Thus, I want to catch the right
clicks but have the left clicks and drags be normally handled by the
finder such that I can still move the desktop icons around.
Any clues?
Many thanks in advance!!
Cheers,
Alex
