Question

I’m developing an app that require the mouse input to passtrough and i don’t want to have to many windows everywhere.

Here is the app (non-totally-fonctionnal) : GitHub - Stenium112/Catssroom: An application for professors in classroom · GitHub

You’d have to explain a bit more. Usually the mouse filter in the inspector is good enough for most things.

Yeah, but i want that the mouse input or other input pass trough my window application.

And i have multiple aera who i want to not pass.

Still not explaining properly : don’t be afraid to share screenshots (or mock ups), code and anything else if you want pertinent help and not just guesses. What is obvious to you is not to us : we’re not at your computer, have no idea what you’re working on, etc.

My code is on my github repo if you want and when I get access to my computer I will make a little video of my app.

My current project is composed of a bar (panel) who can spawn a chrono(panel too) and you move it around and make whatever you want.

I want to be able to interact trough the window below my app like a chrome or any other app. So it’s a floaty chrono (and more later) above your app.

I have tested the mouse pass trough method with the function and region, my conclusion is that the solo way of doing something like that is to make a polygon that update with the panel and seem complicated or just make window (is messy I think)

So I’m searching a way not too messy and maybe simple.

I think you are looking for DisplayServer.window_set_mouse_passthrough: DisplayServer — Godot Engine (stable) documentation in English

Already try to use and :

  1. Only one polygon a a time
  2. Don’t render outside of the region

Here is a lil video

I just want a way to make the mouse input passtrough the window and click under it

If you want to make the whole window transparent to the mouse clicks, use:

 DisplayServer.window_set_flag(DisplayServer.WindowFlags.WINDOW_FLAG_MOUSE_PASSTHROUGH, true, 0)

I already know that but I need multiple aera to be clickable
