Usually, overlaid sub-surfaces have their input region set to empty, which means picking goes right through to what is beneath. However, this case is special, because the parent surface (panel) is not a xdg_shell surface, so it cannot use the normal explicit tooltip mechanism. But that is also a good thing, because it allows you to use a sub-surface for implementing panel's tooltips, and the shell plugin could know to ignore the sub-surfaces of the panel explicitly. This is what I would see as the appropriate solution, *if* you want clicks/touches on the panel tooltip to be handled or ignored instead of go through. Note, that setting the input region to empty for a sub-surface that is used as a tooltip might not be right, as I'm not sure if a user expects the surface picking to go through the tooltip.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
