Hi all,
so Ive still got this problem of making the transparent parts of an
opengl view drop its clicks to whatever application is behind
it....this is looking pretty impossible at the moment, Ive not been
able to find anything about how to do so.
The next best solution I think is manually firing the captured
clicks back to the system event queue as I receive them, after
checking their location in the opengl view.....is there a way to do
this? Ive not been able to find anything on the net at all..
There probably is no way to do this. Even if you could send the
events back to the OS, I imagine the best it could do is look at the
global window list, see the click is destined for your window and
send it back to your application.
Theoretically, if you create a window, and part of that window's
frame is transparent, the Window Server should make note of that fact
and should pass the click through your window. You, of course, will
never be notified of the click, though.
