Question

Hi everyone,
Is it possible to do this directly in the engine? Like in this Unity tutorial:

Yes, it’s possible (as long as the OS windowing compositor is capable of) You’ll need to enable the following project settings:

  • Display/Window/Borderless
  • Display/Window/Transparent
  • Display/Window/Per Pixel Transparency
  • Rendering/Viewport/Transparent Background

You’ll need to enable Advanced Settings to be able to see some of those properties.

As explained in the documentation you need to enable Window.mouse_passthrough and set the Window.mouse_passthrough_polygon to specify the polygon where the mouse events will be intercepted by the app and won’t be pass through. Also, as explained in the documentation:

Note: On Windows, the portion of a window that lies outside the region is not drawn, while on Linux (X11) and macOS it is.
