Declaration [src]
void
gdk_window_set_pass_through (
GdkWindow* window,
gboolean pass_through
)
Description [src]
Sets whether input to the window is passed through to the window below.
The default value of this is FALSE, which means that pointer
events that happen inside the window are send first to the window,
but if the event is not selected by the event mask then the event
is sent to the parent window, and so on up the hierarchy.
If pass_through is TRUE then such pointer events happen as if the
window wasn’t there at all, and thus will be sent first to any
windows below window. This is useful if the window is used in a
transparent fashion. In the terminology of the web this would be called
“pointer-events: none”.
Note that a window with pass_through TRUE can still have a subwindow
without pass through, so you can get events on a subset of a window. And in
that cases you would get the in-between related events such as the pointer
enter/leave events on its way to the destination window.
